[Emc-users] pyVCP Actual position variable
Hello guys, I try to create pyVCP panel, which show X,Y and Z positions So I created xml file with lines number halpinXdisplay/halpin format+004.4f/format /number create hal file, add PYVCP and POSTGUI_HALFILE in ini file start Emc with Axis ... I can see my panel with 0.000 So I have to write in hal file something like net Xpos pyvcp.Xdisplay = ??? What is variable to get machine and relative position value? -- Come build with us!

Does exists to change value of axis position in machine coordinates? Best regards Evgeny P.S. I know about G92, but it is for relative, not machine position. -- Come build with us!

You can only change machine coordinates by machine moves. There is no offsets and such for machine coords. If you can describe what you're trying to do, we could find some solution for this. regards, Michael Basically it is possible to use g92 and work with EMC without problems. Only one problem with it, I have to reload file after G92 command to get right image in Axis UI. Really the problem is that many CNC users (include me) used MachX software. In Mach user can change coords at any moment and most of people work in machine coords. I want to migrate to EMC and migrate another people with me. It would be much easy to do it if I do not need to change methodology. Provide linux like windows Provide emc like mach ... -- Come build with us!

Re: [Emc-users] pyVCP Actual position variable
Do you mean you can change value of machine coords by M66. No, sorry. I am guilty of stealing your subject line with a different but related question. I was looking for a way to transfer the current relative coordinates into a G-code program. In EMC the machine coordinates are fixed. I don't think that changing the machine coordinates is sensible, but if you could, would you move the limit switch positions with the coordinates, or re-calculate their positions? How about home? When you have the choice of 6 relative coordinate systems all with persistent origins, and G92, why would you need to also shift the machine absolute coordinates? Really I can set any machine coords, but need to restart Emc 1. Stop emc 2. Open POSITON_FILE, set values 3. Start EMC ... Home is good idea, but it is possible to use on machine without home switchs and I am able to set only Zero coords. As I described, the reason does not use G92, but use machine coords only habit. But habit is a power! -- Come build with us! The BlackBerry(R) Developer Conference in SF, CA is the only developer event you need to attend this year.
