  • Comment: add display related pins to HALUI

    I thought we discussed this at length last night on IRC. We agreed that halui should have outputs that could be used to drive an external display, and inputs so that the operator of that display could specify the units, etc to be used. We also seemed to agree that sending units, etc, info from Axis through HAL pins to halui was not a good way to slave the halui display to a particular...

  • Fix/Improve pyvcp spinbox widget

    Don't know if this is a bug or a feature request. The spinbox widget in PyVCP shows you a number and lets you increase or decrease it by clicking on up/down buttons, or using your mouse scroll wheel. You can also click in the box, and then type numbers. The numbers appear in the box, but the HAL pin does not get updated. You can force an update by clicking the up or down arrows, but not by...

  • Comment: Ubuntu Hardy Amd64

    No description of the problem, meaningless subject, no contact info. Totally useless "bug" report. Closed.

  • Synchronized moves (G33, G76) skipped when F=0

    If the feedrate is set to zero (or not set at all), spindle syncronized moves are skipped. start sim-lathe F1; F2; MDI M3S500; G0Z1; G33K0.03Z0; the G33 move does nothing motion doesn't assert hal pin motion.spindle-index-enable EMC thinks that the G33 move completed instantly - if you issue a G1 or G0 next, it is executed Problem happens in TRUNK, not in version 2.2.x For...

  • Comment: pluto_step.comp does not handle negative scale values

    Jepler applied the patch - if there are problems, please re-open this tracker, or start a new one.

  • Comment: Velocity and position loop vs. PID regulator

    This is a duplicate of report 1768701. That one was closed with an explanation of the reason for closing it. If you INSIST on re-opening it, you must do more than simply copy the original statement. That original statement was rejected once, and it will be rejected again. Read the response to the first report, and then provide additional support for your statements if you want them...

  • Comment: Velocity and position loop vs. PID regulator

    EMC has used PID loops for position control since it was originally developed in 1995 or so. I think that more than ten years of successfull experience by many users is better evidence than "It cannot work good". Since the PID loops are part of HAL, they can be easily replaced. You are welcome to write your own control loop component to use instead of PID. You could also implement...

  • Comment: MPG during feed hold is executed when released

    It turns out that this is only one manifestation of the bug. Setting feed override to zero has the same effect as feedhold. And incremental jogs are treated the same as jogwheel movement. The fix is to ignore all jog commands, regardless of source, when "net_feed_scale" is zero. That covers all the cases, and is the fix that I just committed. Marking as closed, reopen if not fixed.
