I'm running the latest GIT master (from the weekend). This is the gcode. I've made a simple test case.
(g61.1) S100 M3 G0 x20z0 G0 x12z-10 G1 X0 F200 G0 x12 G0 X20 z0 M2 Here's a screen shot of what I'm seeing running the lathe simulator. http://filebin.ca/rqsbrt/curve2.png The actual path is very hard to see because of the light colour (at least on my monitor). You can see that the G61.1 is enabled on the list of active Gcodes. I just discovered that I don't see this problem if I don't have my pendant .hal file loaded. So I stripped down the file, and the line that makes the problem occur is... net pendant_reset2 hidcomp.0.E-Stop.in-not => halui.machine.on The button on my pendant is a push on, twist off type. It is used to toggle the EMC machine on function. (Normally there is also the line "net pendant_reset hidcomp.0.E-Stop.in => halui.machine.off", to toggle, but it has been deleted to reproduce the problem). If the button is closed when EMC starts, ie hidcomp.0.E-Stop.in-not = FALSE, G61.1 works at startup. If it is TRUE, G61.1 doesn't work. > -----Original Message----- > From: John Thornton [mailto:bjt...@gmail.com] > Sent: Wednesday, 11 November 2009 9:27 AM > To: Enhanced Machine Controller EEMC" > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] G61/G61.1 not working when put in > ini filestartupfield > > That doesn't sound anything like what I saw.
