13:55:42 <anonimasu> anonimasu has quit
13:56:15 <anonimasu> anonimasu has joined #emc-mazak
15:30:03 <rayh-away> rayh-away is now known as rayh
15:47:00 <alex_joni> got specific problems?
15:47:10 <alex_joni> let's move it in here...
15:49:02 <rayh> jmk keeps saying that it's just like wiring components and I've done some of that.
15:49:22 <alex_joni> right
15:50:56 <CNC_Workshop> CNC_Workshop has joined #emc-mazak
15:51:15 <CNC_Workshop> power is up.
15:51:56 <rayh> rayh is now known as rayh-away
15:53:58 <alex_joni> ok..
15:54:01 <alex_joni> ask away :)
15:58:32 <CNC_Workshop> I wish I knew enough to ask an intelligent question.
15:58:41 <alex_joni> what are you trying to do?
15:58:47 <alex_joni> or what isn't working?
15:58:49 <CNC_Workshop> I see a numbe of bask scripts in the main directory here.
15:58:52 <alex_joni> let's take it slow..
15:59:09 <alex_joni> bash scripts? how are they called?
15:59:09 <CNC_Workshop> Looks like they were intended to test out portions by starting and stopping things.
15:59:32 <CNC_Workshop> jmk was able to get motion running with emc so that is good.
16:00:14 <CNC_Workshop> There is one small problem with the z quill.  It's brake is set using amp enable/disable
16:00:14 <alex_joni> aha
16:00:41 <CNC_Workshop> The enable way is fine cause before the brake disengages the amp is going.
16:01:01 <alex_joni> ok.. and the disable should be the other way around?
16:01:10 <alex_joni> first brake, then disable amp.. right?
16:01:14 <alex_joni> or at least don't wait
16:01:18 <CNC_Workshop> But the other way round, in the time it takes the brake to lock, the quill has fallen enough that it causes a following error.
16:01:28 <alex_joni> I see.. let me look at the files
16:01:31 <CNC_Workshop> Exactly.
16:02:18 <alex_joni> one question.. is there any delay between the start of the brake and the amp disable?
16:02:24 <CNC_Workshop> If you have other things "hanging fire" take care of those and we can get this solved later.
16:02:33 <CNC_Workshop> No the same sig does both.
16:02:36 <alex_joni> so this is only because of the time the brake takes to lock?
16:02:39 <alex_joni> ahh.. ok
16:02:52 <CNC_Workshop> Yes That is what it seems to me to be.
16:02:56 <alex_joni> so basicly we need a timer on this sig, and first do the brake, then the amp disable
16:03:07 <CNC_Workshop> Right.
16:03:30 <alex_joni> not sure I know enough about CL to do that.. but I'll try :)
16:03:42 <CNC_Workshop> I don't think this is done with cl at all.  Direct connections in HAL.
16:03:48 <alex_joni> yes, but it SHOULD
16:04:22 <CNC_Workshop> That would be a desirable thing.
16:04:46 <CNC_Workshop> jmk was getting the hang of cl and was happy with the way that it integrated with hal.
16:05:03 <CNC_Workshop> just don't think that he had time enough to really get it integrated.
16:05:25 <CNC_Workshop> Let me look at the hal sigs to cl.
16:06:11 <alex_joni> you happen to know what the signal for the brake release is?
16:07:41 <CNC_Workshop> looking
16:08:00 <alex_joni> I see a servo-enable signal
16:08:19 <alex_joni> or maybe you know where the relay for the brake is connected?
16:08:48 <CNC_Workshop> # need to release the Z-axis brake when running
16:08:48 <CNC_Workshop> linksp Z-amp-running motenc.3.out-15
16:09:14 <alex_joni> I see...
16:09:23 <alex_joni> so Z-amp-running is the signal from HAL
16:10:12 <CNC_Workshop> * CNC_Workshop chases the brake wire.
16:10:27 <alex_joni> err.. no it's not
16:10:38 <alex_joni> the brake wire might go to motenc.3.out-15
16:11:55 <alex_joni> btw, did you manage to get spindle running?
16:14:11 <alex_joni> rayh: from looking at the HAL file I see this:
16:14:20 <CNC_Workshop> I didn't.  get sp running.
16:14:28 <alex_joni> the signal Z-amp-running comes from the amp
16:14:40 <alex_joni> when the amp doesn't run, it toggles the signal
16:14:49 <alex_joni> by then it's late to turn on the brake
16:15:38 <alex_joni> but here's how I would do it:
16:15:46 <CNC_Workshop> k
16:15:51 <alex_joni> do you see newsig servo-enable bit
16:15:51 <alex_joni> linksp servo-enable motenc.3.out-02
16:15:51 <alex_joni> linksp servo-enable axis.0.amp-enable-out
16:15:58 <alex_joni> that's the servo enable bit
16:16:13 <alex_joni> * alex_joni suspects that all servos are connected to motenc.3.out-02
16:16:21 <alex_joni> enable of the servos
16:16:50 <alex_joni> so we need to rewire the enable of axis.2.amp-enable-out through CL
16:17:20 <alex_joni> here's what I need you to do: figure out a free output from the motenc
16:17:36 <alex_joni> and wire the drive-enable there (physically)
16:17:46 <alex_joni> * alex_joni goes home, and is online again in 15 mins.
16:17:53 <alex_joni> ok?
16:18:31 <alex_joni> alex_joni has quit
16:19:46 <CNC_Workshop> okay it looks like jblock2 numbered 4-7 are open
16:20:19 <CNC_Workshop> That has 24 volt power and ground applied now but no outputs connected
16:42:02 <alex_joni> alex_joni has joined #emc-mazak
16:42:07 <alex_joni> CNC_Workshop: back
16:43:17 <alex_joni> I need to go grab a bite, but will leave this open
16:43:18 <alex_joni> back in 15 I think
16:44:14 <CNC_Workshop> No need to hurry.  I've got plenty to study.
16:58:01 <alex_joni> back
17:00:20 <CNC_Workshop> Got hydraulics running
17:00:56 <CNC_Workshop> arm up and down will go.
17:01:18 <CNC_Workshop> carousel will rotate both directions.
17:01:22 <alex_joni> nice
17:01:31 <alex_joni> now.. back to that Z-axis stuff
17:01:35 <alex_joni> if you like..
17:01:58 <CNC_Workshop> jack is looking for the wires that tip the tool into or out of the carousel
17:02:02 <CNC_Workshop> okay.
17:02:08 <CNC_Workshop> z axis brake.
17:02:10 <CNC_Workshop> I
17:02:12 <alex_joni> right
17:02:13 <CNC_Workshop> ve got
17:02:24 <CNC_Workshop> space on the motenc breakout.
17:02:34 <alex_joni> seen that message in the log
17:03:07 <alex_joni> from what I'm seeing : motenc.3.out-02
17:03:25 <alex_joni> that's where all the servo-enables are connected. is that so?
17:09:59 <CNC_Workshop> Let me look.
17:11:30 <CNC_Workshop> it looks like z+ and z- are on that.
17:11:44 <alex_joni> Z+ and Z- ?
17:11:48 <alex_joni> that doesn't make sense
17:12:16 <CNC_Workshop> says that aena should be there
17:12:25 <CNC_Workshop> axis enables
17:12:45 <alex_joni> who does?
17:14:26 <alex_joni> I mean who says that aena should be there?
17:15:53 <CNC_Workshop> A paper I've got here.
17:17:23 <alex_joni> right.. that's what I see from the hal files too
17:24:48 <CNC_Workshop> Got a guy here tracing wires -- need to work with him for a few minutes.
17:25:39 <alex_joni> I'll be leaving in about half an hour :(
17:25:56 <alex_joni> but I'll be back online later tonight (in 2-3 hours I hope)
17:31:15 <alex_joni> gotta go..
17:31:31 <alex_joni> will read the log when I get back.. so keep posting results :)
17:31:33 <alex_joni> alex_joni has quit
17:39:40 <CNC_Workshop> Well flood coolant works.  Got year old coolant everywhere.
17:39:50 <fenn> yum
17:40:24 <fenn> can we get a smell-o-vision webcam running?
17:47:34 <CNC_Workshop> Now I know why they call it flood.  We got one.
18:47:01 <CNC_Workshop> We've got tool change arm rotation.
19:45:01 <alex_joni> alex_joni has joined #emc-mazak
19:45:04 <alex_joni> hello
20:43:11 <CNC_Workshop> HI alex.  Juat back from a snack.
20:43:19 <alex_joni> same here
20:43:28 <alex_joni> tested the loal KFC (just opened)
20:43:38 <CNC_Workshop> We have motion on all of the hydraulic actuators when we pull em with halcmd.
20:43:54 <CNC_Workshop> Checking on the prox switches now.
20:44:11 <CNC_Workshop> I still need to figure out the spindle movement.
20:44:29 <CNC_Workshop> gear change and orient.
20:44:35 <alex_joni> ok.. same when you have questions
20:44:38 <CNC_Workshop> I see some of the hal commands.
20:44:43 <alex_joni> or if you want to address the Z stuff again
20:44:56 <CNC_Workshop> is the KFC any good?
20:46:56 <alex_joni> yup
20:47:46 <CNC_Workshop> Great.  Some of em here make thighs and drumsticks that are so greasy that you can hardly wade through it.
20:48:49 <alex_joni> hehehe
20:50:25 <CNC_Workshop> We are chasing out a few wires here for prox switches.
20:50:45 <CNC_Workshop> and cleaning up some of the rrl connected to the tool changer.
20:53:12 <CNC_Workshop> newsig spindle-ready bit
20:53:12 <CNC_Workshop> newsig spindle-run bit
20:53:33 <CNC_Workshop> question.  is the spindle-run a command.
20:53:41 <alex_joni> no.. it's a signal
20:53:46 <alex_joni> called spindle-run
20:54:03 <alex_joni> but it should say that the spindle is running
20:54:14 <alex_joni> so maybe newsig spindle-running might be more appropiate
20:54:58 <CNC_Workshop> okay.
20:55:53 <CNC_Workshop> I see that jmk was using messages to halcmd like
20:55:58 <CNC_Workshop> bin/halcmd sets spindle-use-low-gear 1
20:56:24 <CNC_Workshop> bin/halcmd sets spindle-rpm-cmd 400
20:56:29 <CNC_Workshop> and so on.
20:57:23 <alex_joni> right
20:57:30 <alex_joni> set signal
20:57:41 <alex_joni> so he sets the signal to a given value
20:58:50 <CNC_Workshop> Now he was running the spindle that way
20:59:09 <CNC_Workshop> changing gears and changing speed.
20:59:09 <alex_joni> right
20:59:21 <alex_joni> and now you'll want to connect the spindle-rpm-cmd to emc
20:59:24 <CNC_Workshop> But it did not do it the next day when I tried.
20:59:24 <alex_joni> and see if that works
20:59:34 <alex_joni> huh.. not?
20:59:48 <CNC_Workshop> I see this also.
21:00:13 <CNC_Workshop> # spindle related signals: "high level" signals
21:00:13 <CNC_Workshop> #   ready (from drive to PC)
21:00:13 <CNC_Workshop> #   run (from PC to drive)
21:00:14 <CNC_Workshop> #   at speed (from drive to PC)
21:00:14 <CNC_Workshop> #   orient command (to spindle control)
21:00:15 <CNC_Workshop> #   oriented status (from spindle control)
21:00:15 <CNC_Workshop> #   commanded speed (from EMC to control)
21:00:17 <CNC_Workshop> #   spindle current feedback (from drive to PC)
21:00:37 <CNC_Workshop> Here he says that run is from pc to drive.
21:00:40 <alex_joni> ok.. so maybe ready needs to be set
21:00:46 <CNC_Workshop> Think that might be an enable?
21:00:53 <alex_joni> yes
21:01:12 <alex_joni> look at ready
21:01:15 <CNC_Workshop> If so it would get set by the machine-on stuff.
21:01:24 <alex_joni> bin/halcmd show signal spindle-ready
21:01:27 <CNC_Workshop> or so I'd think
21:01:31 <alex_joni> not by machine-on
21:01:57 <CNC_Workshop> Yes I don't think that connection had been made at all.
21:02:10 <alex_joni> but by iocontrol.0.spindle-on
21:02:17 <alex_joni> it's not connected now, but it needs to be
21:02:23 <alex_joni> try linking like this:
21:02:35 <alex_joni> linksp spindle-run iocontrol.0.spindle-on
21:02:53 <CNC_Workshop> He was mumbling about machine on not being an NML message at all.
21:02:55 <alex_joni> linksp spindle-rpm-cmd iocontrol.0.spindle-speed-out
21:03:07 <alex_joni> don't need machine on
21:03:17 <CNC_Workshop> What you are giving me should go into the .hal file?
21:03:29 <alex_joni> you could just use that with bin/halcmd
21:03:31 <alex_joni> to test
21:03:38 <alex_joni> and if it's ok, then into the .hal file with it
21:03:52 <CNC_Workshop> Okay.  As soon as we get a couple more wires rung out I'll start it up again.
21:06:06 <alex_joni> ok..
21:07:53 <CNC_Workshop> okay.  I've got those two linksp's in there.
21:08:06 <CNC_Workshop> no replies
21:08:57 <CNC_Workshop> I hear something when I press spindle forward
21:09:33 <CNC_Workshop> gotta put it into gear.
21:10:24 <alex_joni> probably
21:10:30 <alex_joni> but no message for gear :/
21:11:11 <alex_joni> so do a sets spindle-use-low-gear 1
21:11:53 <CNC_Workshop> roland@localhost:~/emc2$ bin/halcmd sets spindle-use-high-gear 1
21:11:53 <CNC_Workshop> HAL: ERROR: signal 'spindle-use-high-gear' not found
21:12:46 <alex_joni> newsig spindle-use-low-gear bit
21:15:11 <CNC_Workshop> okay.  I get some spindle motion.
21:15:17 <CNC_Workshop> only one direction right now.
21:15:30 <CNC_Workshop> but it is there with mdi m3 s500
21:16:20 <logger_mzk> logger_mzk has joined #emc-mazak
21:16:20 <calvino.freenode.net> topic is: "Mazak EMC retrofit.  X and Y homing and moving nicely.  Spindle drive works too. Working on Z now."

21:17:03 <alex_joni> probably, but the speed control is only positive
21:17:05 <alex_joni> will change it
21:17:09 <alex_joni> ok?
21:18:10 <CNC_Workshop> now what do I need to do?
21:18:25 <CNC_Workshop> cvs up and compile?
21:18:39 <alex_joni> hang on for me to do it first ;)
21:18:47 <alex_joni> give me 30 mins for changing and testing
21:19:00 <CNC_Workshop> okay will dol
21:19:12 <alex_joni> brb
21:19:15 <alex_joni> booting a BDI
21:19:19 <alex_joni> alex_joni has quit
21:24:05 <alex_joni> alex_joni has joined #emc-mazak
21:24:14 <alex_joni> back
21:24:16 <alex_joni> looking at it now
21:27:33 <alex_joni> changed, now testing
21:29:52 <alex_joni> ray: one question
21:30:09 <alex_joni> when you are running the spindle in reverse, and you have speed = -500 RPM
21:30:22 <alex_joni> what should spindle increase do? go to -501 RPM ?
21:36:20 <CNC_Workshop> Oh.  Those were intended to change belt ratios on a bridgeport with the center belt idler.
21:36:51 <CNC_Workshop> Is that possible to find current spindle speed and jump it up
21:36:59 <CNC_Workshop> or down.
21:37:25 <CNC_Workshop> That whole manual control thing is rather confusing to me.
21:37:41 <alex_joni> I thought that's what it's for
21:37:42 <alex_joni> seems to be running ok :)
21:37:43 <CNC_Workshop> I've not really tried it on a machine.  Matt has
21:37:58 <alex_joni> if you select forward, it starts at 500
21:38:06 <alex_joni> and if you click on > it goes to 501
21:38:07 <alex_joni> and so on
21:38:07 <CNC_Workshop> oh okay.
21:38:18 <alex_joni> let me commit the fixes
21:38:20 <CNC_Workshop> if you hold it down, does it repeat?
21:38:23 <alex_joni> no
21:38:30 <alex_joni> it's only one NML message
21:38:36 <CNC_Workshop> okay one rpm for each press.
21:38:36 <alex_joni> but you could set that up :)
21:38:40 <alex_joni> right
21:38:47 <alex_joni> one RPM for each NMLmessage
21:38:57 <alex_joni> you might want to change tkemc to send more messages
21:39:00 <alex_joni> if you'd like
21:39:13 <CNC_Workshop> Well let's leave it that way for now.
21:39:29 <CNC_Workshop> Tkemc could easily do that iterating.
21:40:03 <alex_joni> right.. that's what I thought too
21:40:11 <alex_joni> you can cvs up now
21:40:11 <alex_joni> and test
21:41:10 <CNC_Workshop> Okay.
21:41:54 <alex_joni> say if it works
21:41:59 <CNC_Workshop> oh crap.
21:42:02 <alex_joni> warn if not, so I can hide
21:42:03 <alex_joni> what?
21:42:11 <CNC_Workshop> the cvs here is in jmk's name.
21:42:25 <alex_joni> and you don't have his passw?
21:42:33 <CNC_Workshop> you got it.
21:42:44 <CNC_Workshop> I'll checkout a version.
21:42:44 <alex_joni> easy
21:42:47 <alex_joni> no
21:42:55 <alex_joni> go to emc2/src/emc/iotask
21:43:04 <alex_joni> enter CVS (the folder
21:43:13 <alex_joni> and change the file called Root
21:43:39 <alex_joni> it should say: :ext:jmkasunich@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/emc
21:43:46 <alex_joni> change jmkasunich to rayh
21:44:02 <alex_joni> and you should be able to cvs up in that dir (emc2/src/emc/iotask/ )
21:46:17 <CNC_Workshop> nah.  That's got all kinds of bad reports from cvs.
21:47:11 <alex_joni> what bad reports?
21:48:00 <CNC_Workshop> doesn't like cvs -d up
21:48:18 <CNC_Workshop> I'll just check out a new set.
21:48:28 <alex_joni> cvs up -d
21:48:43 <alex_joni> but 'cvs up' is just as safe
21:50:10 <CNC_Workshop> k
21:50:13 <CNC_Workshop> got it.
21:50:34 <alex_joni> make and sudo scripts/emc.run :D
21:51:32 <CNC_Workshop> bad habit of running configure also
21:51:41 <alex_joni> nah.. no use for that
21:51:52 <alex_joni> running configure once is more than enough :D
21:52:10 <CNC_Workshop> not the way that I can trash stuff!
21:52:57 <alex_joni> lol.. :), don't think you trash rtai
21:53:03 <CNC_Workshop> okay it's running -- can't turn on power right now.
21:53:05 <alex_joni> or any other stuff that gets checked in configure :)
21:53:16 <alex_joni> but if you like it..
21:53:29 <CNC_Workshop> I like it a lot.  Thanks for the good work.
21:53:50 <CNC_Workshop> as soon as we get a couple more wires tucked in we can test it.
21:54:31 <alex_joni> okie dokie
21:54:50 <alex_joni> any news from jmk?
21:55:05 <CNC_Workshop> Don't think that you need to stay up cause of me.
21:55:24 <CNC_Workshop> nothing yet from jmk.
21:55:36 <CNC_Workshop> I think he will check in here first.
21:56:45 <alex_joni> it's still early :)
21:59:01 <alex_joni> only a bit after 11
21:59:01 <alex_joni> last night it was after 3am I got to bed :)
22:04:29 <CNC_Workshop> wahoo which is short for it works great.
22:04:48 <CNC_Workshop> Now i need to put those two links into .hal
22:05:24 <alex_joni> cool :D
22:05:26 <alex_joni> * alex_joni is happy
22:13:46 <CNC_Workshop> I put those two linksp commands into .hal and I'm getting an error during startup.
22:14:27 <CNC_Workshop> HAL: ERROR: value '-8bin/halcmd' invalid for float parameter

22:19:29 <CNC_Workshop> setp motenc.3.dac-03-offset -8bin/halcmd sets spindle-rpm-cmd 400
22:19:39 <CNC_Workshop> in a section jmk put in.
22:20:00 <alex_joni> hmmm... probably that
22:20:00 <alex_joni> :D
22:20:06 <CNC_Workshop> or maybe I screwed that up before but i think it was there.
22:20:12 <alex_joni> yup, more likely
22:20:24 <alex_joni> delete the bin/halcmd sets spindle-rpm-cmd 400
22:20:32 <alex_joni> and leave only the offset -8'
22:20:46 <CNC_Workshop> k
22:21:53 <CNC_Workshop> I think that did it.
22:22:01 <alex_joni> cool
22:23:34 <CNC_Workshop> doesn't respond to speed commands.
22:23:47 <CNC_Workshop> running about 20 rpm no matter what I do.
22:24:50 <CNC_Workshop> let me check it with gear change and hydraulic up.
22:25:09 <alex_joni> hmm
22:26:21 <CNC_Workshop> that's it.
22:28:14 <alex_joni> works now?
22:28:24 <CNC_Workshop> spindle from tkemc is good.
22:28:31 <alex_joni> coo
22:28:36 <CNC_Workshop> Now I need gear change
22:28:51 <CNC_Workshop> I was planning m101 and m102
22:29:15 <CNC_Workshop> I thought that jmk had it down to a single line through halcmd to do this.
22:31:00 <alex_joni> bin/halcmd sets spindle-low-gear 1
22:31:01 <alex_joni> I think
22:31:10 <alex_joni> but not sure what you need to turn on
22:32:18 <CNC_Workshop> Yes that worked but getting back to high gear did not.

22:49:20 <alex_joni> CNC_Workshop: hitting the sack soon
22:51:48 <CNC_Workshop> k
22:52:10 <CNC_Workshop> Thanks for all your help.  This is starting to look like it's going to work.
22:52:14 <alex_joni> is it working as it should?
22:52:33 <alex_joni> nice.. you'll be the only one around that does emc/hal?
22:52:39 <alex_joni> or are there other people?
22:53:10 <CNC_Workshop> Not many really using it.  Soon there will be.
22:53:40 <alex_joni> ok.. grab them in here when needed
22:53:42 <alex_joni> :)
22:53:49 <CNC_Workshop> We have axis motion under control and spindle so we could make parts the way it is.
22:54:12 <alex_joni> cool
22:54:22 <alex_joni> there is that Z-axis thing to be resolved afaik
22:54:23 <CNC_Workshop> Still have that axis index/home pulse thing.
22:54:47 <alex_joni> I need to discuss that with jmk thoroughly
22:54:55 <alex_joni> maybe even on the dev list
22:55:00 <CNC_Workshop> Long way to go with the lube level and pressure switches and such.
22:55:05 <alex_joni> although lately I'm not very fond of doing that
22:55:16 <alex_joni> there is a hal-pin for lube level in the iocontroller
22:55:22 <alex_joni> so that might be connectable :D
22:55:30 <CNC_Workshop> Whenever you guys get there.  This is close enough for government work as is.
22:55:38 <alex_joni> not sure about the outside of the mazak
22:55:47 <CNC_Workshop> Yes.
22:55:59 <CNC_Workshop> Is the lube stuff iin iocontrol
22:56:06 <alex_joni> it is
22:56:10 <alex_joni> and it reports to GUI
22:56:16 <alex_joni> but doesn't do much more..
22:56:27 <CNC_Workshop> Fantastic.  I'll see if I can get it going when we get the wires finished.
22:56:35 <alex_joni> * alex_joni knows little about machining
22:56:51 <alex_joni> so most the coding I did was .. "common-sense"
22:57:20 <alex_joni> nice to see that most of it fits ;)
22:57:52 <CNC_Workshop> You bet it does.
22:58:04 <alex_joni> ok.. off to bed
22:58:10 <alex_joni> have fun on the mazak
22:58:18 <alex_joni> send me some pics when it's done :)
22:58:20 <alex_joni> bye
22:58:39 <CNC_Workshop> catch you tomorrow.
22:58:48 <alex_joni> ok
