Hi I'm new with EMC2. I'm interested about EMC2 and I'm trying to learn how it works, but now I have a problem where I will need a little help.
Does plasma-thc-sim work for you? When I try to run it I always get "joint 0 following error". I also get some realtime errors because I have not yet found proper configuration for my machine (even I have tried quite hard). I'm not sure but I think that this following error is not side effect of those realtime errors. Of course it is also possible that I operate the system in a wrong way. What I do is: - start EMC2 with plasma-thc-sim - release ESTOP - turn machine ON - push Home All - push Begin Execution After a few seconds I get that following error. I have tried to read all information what I have found about THC, but still I don't completely understand the operation. Can somebody give me a little advice. 1) what is meaning of "Travel Height" 2) how Z axis should be controlled in the G-code file? Does THC logic control Z axis totally so that there is no need for Z moves in G-code, only M3/M5 command are needed or how does it work. In the example file there are many Z moves and no M3/M5 commands. Is arc turned somehow off between cutting letters or not. So, as you see, I'm a little bit confused. Petri ps. with configuration sim/axis-mm (for example) everything seems to work fine, but at this time I'm especially interested about that plasma control system pps. I'm using version 2.2.3 installed from live CD ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
