01:05 AM XXCoder: lol edge precision. used to watch that channel
02:23 AM Deejay: moin

04:34 AM JT-Cave: morning
04:34 AM Tom_L: morning
05:07 AM JT-Cave: nice our 9:45 appointment in Cape got changed to 1:15
07:09 AM Tom_L: always fun when they wait til the last min to inform you
07:31 AM Tom_L: so spindle override requires a N with it
07:36 AM JT-Cave: she had an emergency surgery this morning
07:37 AM Tom_L: sorry to hear that
07:37 AM JT-Cave: works out well for us we don't have to scramble this morning
07:37 AM JT-Cave: the dr had to do an emergency surgery on someone
07:37 AM JT-Cave: not us
07:37 AM Tom_L: oh
07:38 AM Tom_L: still sorry but not quite as much
07:39 AM Tom_L: sliders update like they should on start
07:40 AM Tom_L: tool change should be greyed out until homed
07:40 AM Tom_L: same logic as mdi
07:40 AM JT-Cave: working on some more buttons
07:41 AM Tom_L: feedrate shows a percent now
07:42 AM Tom_L: since you added the slider
07:50 AM Tom_L: what is the override label for jog?
07:51 AM Tom_L: rapidrate_lb doesn't update with the slider
07:51 AM Tom_L: spindle n & feedrate do
08:00 AM Tom_L: jog_speed_sl doesn't have a jog_speed_lb to go with it
08:01 AM Tom_L: not sure what it would be
08:01 AM Tom_L: feed override, rapid override, spindle override all have working _lb now
08:02 AM Tom_L: brb
08:04 AM -!- #linuxcnc mode set to +v by ChanServ
08:05 AM JT-Cave: not done anything with rapid over ride
08:06 AM -!- #linuxcnc mode set to +v by ChanServ
08:07 AM Tom_L: well, the _lb works with the rapid slider anyway
08:11 AM Tom_L: bbl
10:14 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> coworker brought in a 10th gen nuk.. Booting from the linuxcnc live cd - has latency of around 35us
10:14 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> (without doing anything fancy like isolcpus or turning off hyperthreading)
10:15 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> very usable for mesa hardware
10:15 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> cute little thing. Got it off facebook marketplace for $100 - 64gb ram and 512 ssd.
10:59 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> The front usb didn't seem to work. Finally noticed that the center plastic was pushed in about 1/8 inch... Someone must have really tried to plug a usb in upside down...
10:59 AM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> it pushed back out - folded the little tin thing back down (inside the computer) and it worked. Suprised the hell out of me.
12:21 PM Unterhaus_ is now known as Unterhausen
12:43 PM lcnc-relay: <JT> Yo
01:42 PM Connor: Anyone have any Mcode (python) that you can give it a tool number and update the pocket for said tool? G10 does everything but the pocket number.
03:48 PM Unterhausen: I really like the tool changer on this lathe :) https://youtu.be/Dm4mpxcij-U?si=CSGSJuiIqHu0gwK6
03:49 PM XXCoder: wow pretty mini allright
03:49 PM XXCoder: wood
03:50 PM XXCoder: isnt that standard for swiss lathes? the really fancy ones
03:57 PM CaptHindsight: Debians https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/03/29/4
03:58 PM XXCoder: yep pretty bad
03:58 PM XXCoder: thankfully many distros havent updated to that
04:03 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i wouldnt exactly call it a toolchanger....
04:04 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> but yeah some swiss machines use gang style like that, depends
04:04 PM lcnc-relay: <JT> Not much of a lathe
04:04 PM XXCoder: eh lathe enough
04:04 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> its his test unit for his firmware
04:04 PM XXCoder: it makes round things and make threads
04:04 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i did something similar
04:05 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> we both did almost the same projects, same electronics , but in true linuxcnc style, we both did them completely different
04:07 PM lcnc-relay: <JT> Gotta love EMC
04:07 PM XXCoder: yep
04:09 PM lcnc-relay: <JT> Flex GUI is almost ready for prime time
04:17 PM Unterhausen: Cakeslob, you need more mdf in your lathe
04:18 PM Unterhausen: all that ground stainless you used is elitist.
04:48 PM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> https://jauriarts.org/_matrix/media/v3/download/jauriarts.org/ceZpEgRyMBQMjwuTLjUrKIms/PXL_20240329_214525466.jpg
04:51 PM CaptHindsight: skunkworks: how do you camouflage that?
04:52 PM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> Uh.. I don't?
04:52 PM CaptHindsight: tree bark printed vehicle wrap?
04:52 PM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> Lol
04:56 PM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> I am wondering how many bees nests are going to be inthere
04:56 PM Tom_L: more than you want
04:57 PM srk_ is now known as srk
05:06 PM Tom_L: JT-Cave, i forgot how to copy the examples over?
05:09 PM Tom_L: nevermind...
05:21 PM lcnc-relay: <skunkworks8841> It matches the down spouts
05:27 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> haha and my yuppie ballscrews
06:58 PM JT-Shop: Tom_L, that's one of the last two things to check and turn back on
07:30 PM Tom_L: eventually, there should be a way to set which offset you want to set with the Coordinate System (G54..59.3)
07:31 PM Tom_L: i have a handfull of programs that use 2 offsets
07:35 PM Tom_L: btw, that is disabled now in touchoff
07:38 PM JT-Cave: touch off is presently done to the current coordinate system
07:39 PM Tom_L: why are the buttons disabled now? (touchoff_pb_x y z etc)
07:40 PM JT-Cave: no homed?
07:40 PM JT-Cave: not
07:40 PM XXCoder: enabled?
07:40 PM Tom_L: it is
07:40 PM Tom_L: not enabled
07:40 PM JT-Cave: I'll have to look tomorrow
07:40 PM Tom_L: estop, power on, homed, no touchoff
07:40 PM * JT-Cave calls it a day
07:40 PM Tom_L: it was working the other day :)
07:41 PM JT-Cave: they all get enabled for me when all axes are homed and power is on
07:41 PM XXCoder: hmm what has changed?
07:41 PM Tom_L: maybe the tool change enable stuff broke it, i dunno
07:41 PM JT-Cave: works for me...
07:41 PM Tom_L: lemme make sure i have the last push
07:42 PM JT-Cave: yup
07:42 PM JT-Cave: been a long day here see you in the am
07:42 PM Tom_L: same here.. later
07:44 PM Tom_L: it's disabled here still
07:44 PM Tom_L: mdi, toolchange & tool touchoff are enabled but not coords
07:46 PM XXCoder: since you added tool change enable, is that blocking?
07:48 PM Tom_L: i see a typo in your code too
07:48 PM Tom_L: startup line 227
07:49 PM Tom_L: i don't think that would break this though
07:50 PM Tom_L: no nevermind you're using a similar name 2x
08:03 PM Tom_L: are the work offsets (G54..G59.3) persistent?
08:04 PM Tom_L: i set one different from the default G54, power down, power up and it's still set to the new offset
08:05 PM Tom_L: aparently they are
08:06 PM Tom_L: i knew the values were stored in var but didn't know the chosen active offset was saved too
08:07 PM Tom_L: 5220
08:09 PM Tom_L: then 5221 - 5390 store their values
08:17 PM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/JT-SHOP/flexgui/flexgui_coords_disabled.png
09:42 PM acer is now known as _unreal_
10:53 PM Connor: Is there a way to fire off a MDI command after homing is complete?
11:48 PM Tom_L: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/python-interface.html#sec:the-joint-dictionary
11:50 PM Tom_L: use the homed signal then issue a user command for mdi. not something i've done but i bet it's doable
11:55 PM Tom_L: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/24-hal-components/40613-run-m-code-on-after-startup-from-hal
11:55 PM Connor: I found another way. I'm waist deep in qtpyvcp and probe basic. Found a way to do it via a call.
11:55 PM Tom_L: might give you an idea
11:56 PM Connor: I've managed to write a M command that changes the pocket number for a tool too..
11:56 PM Tom_L: nice
11:56 PM Tom_L: i saw that earlier
11:56 PM Connor: Basiclly reworking probe basic for a router vs VMC.
