This is a question for people using LCNC on larger machine tools. We have
been patiently waiting for jog while paused and it does not look like we are
getting it anytime soon. My question is how are others working around this?
For instance I am working on a job machining gears with hardened teeth and
we have to remove .250 form one face, roughing insert lasts about 2/3 of the
way through the roughing program and we have to rotate the insert. Feed hold
leaves us in a position too close to the part to change the insert. Our only
solution is to exit program and move tool away to rotate insert and restart
program from the beginning and cut air  until we get back into the cut. We
try to run from line but even if we call constant surface feed in our MDI
spindle start the spindle runs at the cap RPM.

I too, am unable to run from line with my lathe and have CSS work correctly.

[Emc-users] can't jog using handwheel with gantrykins

2012-07-17 Thread David Dyke
I have been following the gantrykins conversation recently as we have been
installing linuxcnc on a gantry machine.
There is some odd behavior with ignoring soft limits, and jumping to joint
mode at moments when it is least desirable.
I now find that the hand wheel jogging does not seem to work.
When the same file is loaded using trivkins, jogging works normally, can
anyone suggest a solution?

[Emc-users] reading Heidenhain scale via exe650

2012-06-05 Thread David Dyke
I am having some difficulty reading a Heidenhain exe650 with a 5i20/ 7i33
combo, I can see counts in hal, but regardless of direction of motion, I
only see counting in one direction.
I have configured as usual for differential and other feedback is counting
correctly, anyone know what I am missing.
