[TRAJ]AXES should probably be set to 8. Here's the explanation from the documentation: One more than the number of the highest joint number in the system. For an XYZ machine, the joints are numbered 0, 1 and 2; in this case AXES should be 3. For an XYUV machine using ``trivial kinematics'', the V joint is numbered 8 and therefore AXES should be 9. For a machine with nontrivial kinematics (e.g., scarakins) this will generally be the number of controlled joints. http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/config/ini_config/index.html#hue432
In the .hal files, the number of "stepgen" should be 4: loadrt stepgen step_type=0,0,0,0 and the correspondance between axis numbers, axis names, and stepgen numbers will be: Axis Name Axis # Stepgen # X 0 0 Y 1 1 U 6 2 V 7 3 Thanks for jumping in and trying out this new & only sparsely documented feature. I hope we can help you get it working. Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
