Re: [Emc-users] How to unlock a linear axis
Hi, Thankyou for your test, you have save me much time, but I'm a little disappointed becouse I think that I'm stupid becouse I can't find a way to do the job ... is it impossible that in all the time that linuxcnc exist no one had my same problem. Well, a way illustrated from Kirk Wallace seems good but I'm not sure on how implement the trik, I don't know how to force the commanded position from the motion part to be at a fixed point even if it have a jog or G command, I have made some test with the axis.N.motor-pos-fb but the tracking error remain. I hope in a miracleor someone much clever than me. 2012/8/15 sam sokolik sa...@empirescreen.com I just played with master. It looks like if you add LOCKING_INDEXER = 1 to a linear axis - it doesn't create the pins. (but does make it so you cannot jog it) So it 'sort of' works. :).

The axis moves at rapid (G0) •LOCKING_INDEXER = 1 - When this is set to 1 a G0 move for this axis will initiate an unlock with axis.N.unlock pin then wait for the axis.N.is-unlocked pin then move the axis at the rapid rate for that axis. After the move the axis.N.unlock will be false and motion will wait for axis.N.is-unlocked to go false. Moving with other axes is not allowed when moving a locked rotary axis.

In that case You can easily set that joint to be rotary joint. It does not matter that it actually is linear joint. If all the scale values, angular velocities and accelerations etc are set correctly, then it will move You to right position at right speed and acceleration.

Guys let's look at this a little bit You want to keep the slide from attempting to move while the brake is engaged. Is that the desired machine action?

Even if you find a software solution to the control problem the control will still not 'KNOW' if the brake is engaged or not.

Re: [Emc-users] Final user of EMC2.
Why do you expect EMC to be different than any other program? Do you delete word processor files from the file open menu of the word processor? Do you delete spreadsheets from the file open menu of the spreadsheet program? NO. You delete files using your computer's file manager application (or the command line). G-code files are no different than spreadsheets or word processor documents. They are just files, and you can copy, delete, or rename them using the operating system just like any other file. It would be stupid to duplicate that functionality in EMC, when the operating system does it better, and in a standard and well-known way that doesn't require any extra learning curve.

I don't see how it could be made simpler. Stephen I for one cannot grasp why the OP wants to delete the file. Doesn't he want to ever make another copy of that part? What if he had a power failure in the middle of that part? He would be totally screwed and have to redesign it before he could make another. Boggles what mind I have left.

[Emc-users] Esc key
I use the esc key alot to stop programs or turn off the spindle - almost like a reset key. Is there a pin where i can bring this into classic ladder? I have a live tooling motor that i turn on with a custom m-code (m103). I would like it to turn off when i press the esc key. I currently use another m-code to turn it off. Which i want to keep - but would also like the esc to work.

Re: [Emc-users] Final user of EMC2.
I think problem again here. I am not talking about UBUNTU. I am talking about EMC2 2.2.5 and problem in DELETE file -program name- from icon on EMC2 where one load new program. When load file/program into EMC2 --EMC2 2.2.5 in my particular case---DELETE those file name. Is is clear now what i am talking about? It is clear enough now what you are talking about. While I don't agree so much with having delete available in the load program dialog, I see nothing wrong with a delete file option in the GUI. If I had a production machine that showed the cnc screen full screen, I think I would find it annoying to minimize the screen and use the file manager. In fact I could understand cases where I would not want the operator to use anything but the cnc screen.
