Hello everyone,
I have question about saving variables in *.var file after command.abort()
If I abort program in a loop within variables are updated they are writen to
file with values that they have after ending the loop. f.e. loop executed 10
times, abort() in 5 interaction, index variable wa
Yes, that is behavior you should expect from emc.
Except in a few special cases, the code in the .ngc file may be
interpreted in advance, even up to the end of the file. Things like
variable assignments, modal g- and m- settings, and the like may reflect
the state of the interpreter hundreds of l
Thanks to all who have replied and provided much appreciated help in overcoming
the challenges I have encountered thus far in my EMC2 adventures.
I have purchased an Actiontec 56K external modem to bypass the problems
presented by my Winmodem and now have my dialup working.
By the way is there
Hello Jack
Glad to hear you got connected. I've tried using the dial on demand
stuff but have never gotten it to work for me. It seems to want to
connect all the time. BTW those Ubuntu folk that wrote that widget have
no clue about dialup. Yes it will fire up and close down a connection
but i

Well I think I have found a more convienient way of handling the dialup. After
going through the activation procedure, after closing the browser I just turn
off the modem power. When I want to go on line I restore the power to the modem
and shortly thereafter it begins dialing in.

This may be off topic, but due to the open source nature of linux and
EMC, I'll take a chance.
I have been trying to figure out a method that a typical EMC user could
use to make encoders.
One method might be to use Lighscribe to burn a rotary scale image to a
CDR disk, but cd's are reflective an

That should be period1, not period.

Also forgot to mention that when the command show param is issued, I only see
siggen.0.update.time
siggen.0.update.tmax
I don't see the following parameters:
siggen.0.amplitude
siggen.0.frequency
siggen.0.offset

You're right, Steve. It worked when I entered the command correctly. Thanks.

When issuing the command
save all saved.hal
I get:
HAL:18: Can't open 'save' destination 'saved.hal'
What needs to be done now?

you want to issue:
halcmd save all > saved.hal
Also make sure you're in a folder where you have write access (or use
a full path for the filename).

You can get reflective optocouplers as well as transmissive ones, although
using a disk as you describe it might require an analog comparator on the
front end to clean up the signal. Transmissive is easier, since the only
linear part is at the edge of the openings.

I just bought a drive with Lightscribe and I didn't bother to look at
the CD's that came with it. It looks like there are about 400 lines per
rev. and 80 lines per inch. I was hoping for a 2000 lines per rev. class
design. Googling got me a link to Agilent's AEDR-8300 reflective sensor.

There are different versions of that sensor, one of which has a 75 line/in
resolution. The highest resolution they make is 180 line/in.
