[00:00:18] <cradek> skunkworks: from the nml interface, you can issue an incremental jog of whatever length you need
[00:04:40] -!- Tom_L [Tom_L!~Tl@unaffiliated/toml/x-013812] has joined #linuxcnc-devel
[00:05:01] <cradek> oh hey
[00:05:03] <cradek> 12 float IN 0 halui.jog.1.increment
[00:05:03] <cradek> 12 bit IN FALSE halui.jog.1.increment-minus
[00:05:03] <cradek> 12 bit IN FALSE halui.jog.1.increment-plus
[00:05:09] <cradek> you can just do it with halui
[00:07:36] <andypugh> That would be vaguely wacky
[00:07:52] -!- rob_h has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[00:08:17] <andypugh> I can’t help feeling that if you are in a Python module then the Python interface makes more sense than NML or Halui
[00:08:27] <cradek> sure you're right
[00:08:35] <cradek> then you can send an mdi command directly
[00:08:51] <andypugh> mdi or raw emcconon
[00:08:57] <andypugh> (emccanon)
[00:11:01] <ssi> emoticon?
[00:11:05] <ssi> :D
[00:14:19] <andypugh> cradek: I think you can use emccanon.STRAIGHT_TRAVERSE(line,x0,y0,z0,0,0,0,0,0,0) in Python, but there are few examples. I think that is one of the very many things that mah added.
[00:16:08] <cradek> if so, you'd need to know the position of all the axes you don't want to move
[00:16:17] <cradek> an mdi command does that kind of thing automatically
[00:18:16] <andypugh> i suspect that might be covered, it seems likely. Perhaps missing arguments don’t move?
[00:18:28] <andypugh> I have never tried it.

[03:49:40] <cmorley> ^^^ this branch adds ability of stepconf to make simulated hardware (sim limit and sim home, sim spindle encoder, no parport) configs.
[03:49:47] <cmorley> Opinons?
[03:51:10] -!- AR__ has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
[03:51:28] <memleak> i dont see why not :)
[03:52:01] <memleak> i like it, that way you dont need a parport or similiar to make / test configs
[04:03:06] <cmorley> yes. and can make arbitrary sized/optioned sim configs very quickly.

[14:08:02] <jepler> pcw_home: spun some motors with u3 + 7i90spi last night. no new problems cropped up.

[14:09:13] -!- erictheise has quit [Client Quit]
[14:10:22] <pcw_home> Thats good news.
[14:10:23] <pcw_home> I plan to add DPLL encoder sample re-timing next which will improve servo jitter tolerance
[14:14:07] <pcw_home> (absolute encoders already have this feature since they require a pre-trigger to start the serial read cycle)

[14:46:44] <jepler> these little motors are funny
[14:47:21] <jepler> <200mA @ 30V
[14:47:25] <jepler> not much velocity or acceleration
[14:49:53] <pcw_home> thats pretty tiny
[14:50:10] <jepler> I'm sure their peak is higher, I haven't tried to stall them
[14:51:16] <jepler> tuned to 500u (20 counts) by this amateur
[14:51:57] <pcw_home> bare Hbridge drive?
[14:52:02] <jepler> your 7iwhatever
[14:52:19] <jepler> the one with 4 amps & encoders
[14:52:36] <pcw_home> 7I30
[14:53:17] <pcw_home> Small motors especially bare may be hard to tune at 1 KHz
[14:53:29] <jepler> they're not bare actually
[14:53:44] <jepler> years ago cradek made this little gantry homing test device
[14:53:52] <pcw_home> Ahh
[14:54:03] <jepler> I dunno if it was there the year you visited us in wichita
[14:54:19] <jepler> a couple of little nylon (?) blocks on leadscrews
[14:54:31] <pcw_home> I think it may have been
[14:54:49] <pcw_home> bbl dog walking time

[20:44:09] <jepler> we were surprised by the low max velocity and low holding torque of these motors with the 7i30. eventually jmk soldered an inductor in series with the motor. the peak current doubled and the velocity went up over 4x
[20:44:43] <jepler> I dunno if he's going to do that to the other motor, or just declare the mystery of low performance solved

[21:10:24] <jepler> I think the estimated motor inductance was 15mH, so the current limit is reached very quickly, and even in slow decay mode the current decayed really rapidly, so you only got a fraction of the average current
[21:10:30] <jepler> if jmk were here he'd explain it accurately
