01:20 PM TurBoss: hazzy: what about a feature freeze ?
01:20 PM TurBoss: the we can port to python3 with many active branchs
03:18 PM roguish[m]: JT-Shop: hey JT. do you know of install instrucctions for the rpi .iso that AndyP just created????
03:27 PM JT-Shop: no, if it's an EMC iso you just install it
03:28 PM roguish[m]: JT-Shop: alrighty. thanks.
03:32 PM roguish[m]: JT-Shop: I passed on the link to Backyard Chickens to a friend. he and his wife have a bunch of chicken on there acreage. they let the chickens cruise around in a couple of acres of vineyard. the birds like to jump up an peck at the grapes. So, the wine he makes is called 'Jumping Chicken' ... in french of course.....'saut de poulet'
03:40 PM JT-Shop: must not have any predators where he lives...
04:01 PM roguish[m]: no, not too many. 22 acres surrounded by big housing developments. the land is zoned 'agriculture reserve.' my get some coyotes, but only at night, and no dogs running around either. chickens have a nice coop tool.
04:06 PM JT-Shop: lucky chickens
04:14 PM roguish[m]: yup

08:03 PM Lcvette: See anything wrong in the hal file?
08:03 PM TurBoss: its removed?
08:03 PM TurBoss: can't see
08:04 PM Lcvette: It's sending /o\
08:04 PM TurBoss: :O
08:05 PM Lcvette: I'm on tablet
08:05 PM Lcvette: 🤮
08:06 PM TurBoss: 🙂

08:10 PM Lcvette: Now?
08:10 PM Lcvette: Hurray!
08:10 PM TurBoss: yeah
08:12 PM Lcvette: Can you see if the or2 for probe is properly setup? We see the two probe inputs flash in Hampshire but it's not triggering the probe subroutine as probe triggered
08:13 PM TurBoss: ```
08:13 PM TurBoss: net probe-in => motion.probe-input <= or2.0.out
08:13 PM TurBoss: the first "=>" looks suspicious
08:13 PM Lcvette: :o
08:14 PM Lcvette: Lcvette had no idea what its supposed to look like
08:14 PM TurBoss: ```
08:14 PM TurBoss: net probe-in motion.probe-input <= or2.0.out
08:14 PM TurBoss: just guessing
08:14 PM TurBoss: is guess the correct word?
08:14 PM TurBoss: lol
08:15 PM Lcvette: What's the => do?
08:15 PM TurBoss: it shows the direction of the signa
08:15 PM Lcvette: Thought it was just for user to see
08:15 PM TurBoss: * it shows the direction of the signal
08:15 PM TurBoss: or2.0.out goes to motion.probe-input
08:16 PM TurBoss: right?
08:16 PM Lcvette: I think so
08:16 PM Lcvette: I don't know hal stuff, you know that
08:16 PM Lcvette: Lol
08:16 PM Lcvette: /o\
08:17 PM TurBoss: i mean is that what you want?
08:17 PM TurBoss: 2 signals one motion.probe_input
08:17 PM TurBoss: :P
08:17 PM Lcvette: Yes
08:18 PM Lcvette: So can isee touch probe and tool probe
08:18 PM Lcvette: * So can use touch probe and tool probe

08:18 PM TurBoss: i would try that
08:21 PM Lcvette: Ok
08:21 PM TurBoss: be carefull
08:21 PM Lcvette: Sent fir testing
08:21 PM TurBoss: :D
08:21 PM Lcvette: He is testing with finger
08:21 PM TurBoss: * be careful
08:21 PM TurBoss: ok cool
08:22 PM Lcvette: Waiting for test report
08:25 PM TurBoss: great
08:39 PM TurBoss: 👂️
08:44 PM Lcvette: He changed and it's testing
08:44 PM TurBoss: ok

08:52 PM Lcvette: This says that arrow is optional?
08:52 PM Lcvette: TurBoss: ^^^
08:52 PM Lcvette: Does it matter if it's there or not?
08:53 PM TurBoss: yes you right
08:54 PM Lcvette: Lcvette doesn't know what the or2 should look like
08:54 PM TurBoss: its clear they are not used by the net
08:54 PM Lcvette: /o\
08:54 PM Lcvette: I know you can use both probes as I've seen it done
08:55 PM TurBoss: 🤔
08:58 PM Lcvette: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-questions/29940-probing-and-automatic-tool-length-measurements
08:58 PM Lcvette: I find this but it makes no sense to me
08:59 PM Joco[m]: Are you probing to get tool offsets into tool table?
09:01 PM Lcvette: Yes
09:01 PM Lcvette: And touch probe
09:05 PM Lcvette: whats trhe difference between addf or2.0 base-thread and addf or2.0 servo-thread
09:05 PM Lcvette: ?
09:05 PM Lcvette: could that e it?
09:06 PM Lcvette: * could that be it?
09:07 PM TurBoss: I'm not sure
09:07 PM Lcvette: does it need loadrt or2 count=1
09:07 PM Lcvette: ?
09:07 PM Lcvette: he does not have the count=1
09:08 PM TurBoss: thats only needed if you need more then one
09:09 PM Joco[m]: the speed of updayes
09:09 PM Lcvette: ok
09:09 PM Lcvette: then lcvette is again lost
09:09 PM Lcvette: not sure why it doesn't trigger the subroutine event but shows in hal
09:12 PM Joco[m]: servo-thread is what is most commonly used
09:25 PM Lcvette: i am having him test everything without the or2
09:25 PM * Lcvette sent a long message: < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/kjOFekKjqSytZTODsRiaWazz/message.txt >
09:26 PM Joco[m]: you are using names in this config. You should b e loading the or2 with a name
09:27 PM Joco[m]: jjst gets rid of one potential problem
09:27 PM Lcvette: ?
09:27 PM Lcvette: i don't know what you mean
09:28 PM Lcvette: i am hal illiterate
09:28 PM Lcvette: i know just enough to get lucky sometimes
09:28 PM Lcvette: lol
09:28 PM Lcvette: /o\
09:28 PM Lcvette: :o
09:28 PM Joco[m]: well did the hal process before or did it barf and dump you out of lcnc?
09:28 PM Lcvette: have an example?
09:29 PM Lcvette: it starts
09:29 PM Lcvette: it runs
09:29 PM Joco[m]: k - so for hacking lets run with that
09:29 PM Lcvette: it just for some reason is not recognizing the probe input events on the tool setter
09:29 PM Lcvette: he said the probe routines work perfectly
09:29 PM Lcvette: but tool setting is not working
09:30 PM Joco[m]: have you enabled the those or nets and use halshow to see if you are getting the logical signal that you are expecting?
09:31 PM Lcvette: halshow shows the light blink
09:31 PM Lcvette: yes
09:31 PM Lcvette: for both probes
09:31 PM Lcvette: tool setter and touch probe
09:31 PM Lcvette: but subroutine isn't recopgnizing it
09:31 PM Lcvette: i tested here on the sim and it works fine
09:31 PM Lcvette: so im stumped
09:31 PM Joco[m]: oh
09:32 PM Joco[m]: so no issue with the HAL then
09:32 PM Lcvette: i also have other people running both probe using or2 but i can't remember who they were to ask
09:32 PM Lcvette: it was on here though
09:32 PM Lcvette: but they popped in got what they needed and left
09:32 PM Lcvette: /o\
09:33 PM Joco[m]: hmmm
09:33 PM TurBoss: no error message?
09:34 PM Joco[m]: has he put some debug messages in the subroutine?
09:34 PM Joco[m]: i.e. is the sub actually firing?
09:36 PM Lcvette: yes
09:36 PM * TurBoss sent a long message: < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/zkxniSgQchGSKWNGefEyFuvx/message.txt >
09:36 PM Lcvette: it makes the preliminary moves and begins the probing move, but when the probe triggered it does not register it
09:37 PM Lcvette: ```
09:37 PM Lcvette: net workprobe1 or2.0.in0 <= hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-05
09:37 PM Lcvette: net workprobe2 or2.0.in1 <= hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-06-not
09:37 PM Lcvette: is that not the same as this?
09:38 PM TurBoss: yes thats why I'm confused
09:38 PM TurBoss: 😕
09:38 PM Lcvette: lcvette is confused as well
09:41 PM Joco[m]: the key is when you manually trigger the probes with a finger you see the or2.0.out go high?
09:41 PM Lcvette: yes
09:41 PM Joco[m]: cool.
09:42 PM TurBoss: \o/
09:42 PM Joco[m]: that is kinda fundamental
09:42 PM * Lcvette uploaded an image: 118443510_1232263503833146_3542225231859723931_n.jpg (1527KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/pvLLQAPysPeuivDiLAevfkZE/118443510_1232263503833146_3542225231859723931_n.jpg >
09:42 PM Lcvette: which ever probe is triggering he said the lights change state
09:43 PM Joco[m]: and the sub is standard code?
09:43 PM Joco[m]: link to it?
09:43 PM Lcvette: so workprobe1 and or2.0.in0 both change state together when that probe is triggered and same but with the other two when the other probe is triggered

09:46 PM Lcvette: Joco: ^^^
09:46 PM Lcvette: ive tested it ad nauseum on sim and it works perfect
09:46 PM Lcvette: * ive tested it ad nauseam on sim and it works perfect
09:47 PM Joco[m]: k. has he tried to do a g38.2 by hand?
09:47 PM Joco[m]: i.e. from mdi
09:47 PM Lcvette: the touch probe works fine in those routines all use G38.1
09:47 PM Lcvette: * the touch probe works fine in those routines all use G38.2
09:47 PM Lcvette: its maddening
09:47 PM Joco[m]: yeah - but I'm wondering if HE has some config issue
09:48 PM Lcvette: thats why i posted the halfile
09:48 PM Lcvette: wondering if the or2 thing may be wrong since i don't know hal stuff
09:48 PM Joco[m]: yeah - and has he tested a manually started g38.2?
09:48 PM Lcvette: voodoo
09:48 PM Joco[m]: and proven it is still failing.
09:49 PM Lcvette: good test
09:49 PM Joco[m]: I'm just covering off all then angles.
09:49 PM Lcvette: will have him perform
09:49 PM Lcvette: yeah
09:49 PM Lcvette: im with ya
09:49 PM Lcvette: i don't suspect it will fail since it works in sim
09:49 PM Lcvette: i assumed that would rule out the subroutine as an issue
09:50 PM Joco[m]: if a manual g38.2 works then the hal is fine so we have something screwy else where. If the manul g38.2 fails then it has to be someting screwed up in hal
09:55 PM Lcvette: think we may have found the issue
09:55 PM Lcvette: both probes are two wire normally closed
09:55 PM Lcvette: he had one set as inverted
09:55 PM Lcvette: 06-not
09:57 PM Joco[m]: ah
09:57 PM Joco[m]: so ... one probe works and one does not
10:01 PM Lcvette: yes
10:01 PM Joco[m]: ```
10:01 PM Joco[m]: # --- PROBE-IN ---
10:01 PM Joco[m]: net probe-in <= [HMOT](CARD0).7i76.0.0.input-13-not
10:01 PM Joco[m]: this is mine and I use normally closed probe
10:01 PM Joco[m]: i suspect he needs both probe ins to -not
10:02 PM Joco[m]: * i suspect he needs both probe ins to be -not
10:02 PM Lcvette: this is mine and it is also normally closed
10:02 PM Lcvette: # --- PROBE-IN ---
10:02 PM Lcvette: net probe-in <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-15-not
10:02 PM Lcvette: * ```
10:02 PM Lcvette: # --- PROBE-IN ---
10:02 PM Lcvette: net probe-in <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-15-not
10:03 PM Joco[m]: there you go
10:03 PM Joco[m]: his input-05 should probably be input-05-not
10:04 PM Joco[m]: right I need to nip out for an hour or so.
10:17 PM Not-8b99: [02qtpyvcp] 07TurBoss pushed 031 commit to 03vtk_focus_path [+0/-0/±1] 13https://git.io/JUIwb

11:41 PM Joco[m]: well the HP2105tm works and I'm getting touch events. just need to figure out how to calibrate it
