Gene,
all co-ordinates offset from that for
the rest of a pcb etch & drill run. That worked well but needed a very
fine wire, in the spindle with the spindle running, and a smallish
capacitor to capture the first contact. I actually used a sewing machine
needle threader wire for that. Repeat

Interesting that a 7-week old copy returns e. :-)
(Perhaps it's just a non-zero return value that's expected.)
I'll sneak up on a
arization of part programming, like for the tool change routine.
command M106 Txx Sxx:
(M106 TOOL CHANGE MACRO)
M9
G91 G30 Z0 M5
T#5400 M6

I always thought that the small tools used for PCB work (the ones with the
colored beads on the shaft) were made so that the back of the bead is a
reference distance to the tip of the tool. Then you could change the tool,
push the bead up against the collett, tighten to a specific torque, and go.

Setting a tool on a lathe is generally more complicated than with a mill
where the Z dimension is the only offset. Doing it with a touch off
probe on a lathe is a big deal. Usually a probe is setup and the tool
is touched off the probe in the Z and X axes. But usually the probe
must be ret

Hi
Have now had a play with this and found how to get it working with 2.5
Comment out the lines
#iniFile = emc.ini(os.environ['INI_FILE_NAME'])
#emc.nmlfile = s.path.join(os.path.dirname(os.environ['INI_FILE_NAME']),
#iniFile.find("EMC", "NML_FILE"))
Change the lines
emcStat = emc.stat();
emcCmd
Thanks Jeff. I will definitely change the name of the file. And I will
try removing the references to NML_FILE and see what happens.

Hi
I am no python expert, but a couple of things jump out at me.
There has been no reference under [EMC] NML_FILE= in the ini file
since v2.4
Indeed if it is not commented out , EMC will fail to start with multiple
errors.
So the call iniFile.find("EMC", "NML_FILE")) will fail on v2.4 and ab
I assume that you are talking about the script linked at
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ManualToolChangeMacro
It looks like this version of the tool change script is a bit out of
date with respect to LinuxCNC.
LinuxCNC removed the need to specify [EMC]NML_FILE in the inifile in
vers
because it
sounds like a very useful enhancement to EMC2. I'm not familiar with
HAL or Python, or else I would have a go at it.
Thanks,
Tony

Thanks, Dave. I'll give it a try and report my results.

Hi everybody,
I just made my first PC board using EMC2 and my Sherline mill.
I was surprised at how nice it came out.
One issue came up, however, during the drilling phase. When EMC2
paused for the tool changes, I didn't see a way to touch off the Z

Hi everybody,
I just made my first PC board using EMC2 and my Sherline mill.
I was surprised at how nice it came out.
One issue came up, however, during the drilling phase. When EMC2
paused for the tool changes, I didn't see a way to touch off the Z axis
after installing a new drill bit. Is ther
