[00:09:54] <Jymmm> CaptHindsight: I guess thats what the gift card is for
[00:10:31] <Jymmm> CaptHindsight: But what I was saying is they no longer keep a reserve stock for replacements
[00:11:21] <CaptHindsight> thats been my experience for the past few years
[00:11:27] -!- AR__ [AR__!~AR@24.238.71.107] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:11:40] <CaptHindsight> only they let me get a similar next best tool
[00:12:30] <CaptHindsight> lots of tool changes since the 70's, especially screw drivers and wrenches
[00:12:51] <Jymmm> Well, it's been a while for me. Usually I just save a bag of broken tools and go in all at once
[00:13:51] <Jymmm> Sadly, I won't be buying any more craftsman hand tools
[00:14:03] <CaptHindsight> S-K used to be for life as well, until they decided life means only if a store has it in stock

[00:14:58] <Jymmm> Now, I just buy cheap tools and not worry about it.
[00:15:17] <CaptHindsight> and now all the ACE hardware stores carry Craftsman instead
[00:15:20] <Jymmm> Hell, there's not many more tools I need anyway
[00:15:22] -!- dnalerom_ has quit [Quit: Computer has gone to sleep.]
[00:16:09] <Jymmm> I got a pair of 36" bolt cutters from HF for under $20 out the door *shrug*
[00:16:13] <CaptHindsight> I still break the occasional socket or screwdriver
[00:16:39] -!- dnaleromj [dnaleromj!~dnaleromj@64.20.17.137] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:16:43] <CaptHindsight> how well do they fit under a jacket? :)
[00:16:52] <Jymmm> Well, I still have shit loads of those craftsman, but they discontinued my favorite side cutters
[00:16:58] <Jymmm> bastards
[00:17:05] <syyl-> get a good one
[00:17:08] <syyl-> and youre done
[00:17:10] <syyl-> :)
[00:17:13] <syyl-> knipex
[00:17:33] <Jymmm> They WERE good, just old. and had a lifetime warranty, then discontinued them
[00:17:34] <syyl-> abuse the heck out of their side cutters and havent ruined one so far..
[00:17:51] <Jymmm> syyl-: Great, send be a pair.
[00:17:55] <Jymmm> me*
[00:18:00] <syyl-> send me money :P
[00:18:12] <CaptHindsight> I always tend to bend or break a section
[00:18:20] <Jymmm> I already spend the money on the craftsman ones. Thoght you were offering
[00:18:39] -!- AR_ [AR_!~AR@24.238.71.107] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:19:11] <Jymmm> these are micro side cutters btw
[00:19:33] <syyl-> those for electronics?
[00:19:38] <Jymmm> yep
[00:19:57] <CaptHindsight> I've melted a couple as well going through live wires
[00:20:08] <syyl-> then there are two great manufacturers of those, knipex and bernstein
[00:20:35] <Jymmm> syyl-: no need to suggest unles you are going to ship them
[00:20:49] <syyl-> free world, free suggestions ;)
[00:21:23] <Jymmm> Free slap in the face
[00:21:29] <syyl-> its like free aol cds

[13:08:44] <skunkworks> your flailing... take a breath. http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/hal/rtcomps.html#_debounce_a_id_sec_debounce_a
[13:13:34] <R2E4> I was doing the exact same thing as Andy is doing here http://www.linuxcnc.org/index.php/english/forum/38-general-linuxcnc-questions/12062-joint-0-limit-error-setting-up-debounce?start=6

[13:14:51] <CaptHindsight> Loetmichel: some materials and parts just have mysterious/spooky behaviors
[13:15:19] <skunkworks> if you have cfg=2.. you only need addf debounce.0 base-thread
[13:15:25] <R2E4> so no addf for debounce?
[13:15:50] <skunkworks> (only need to add 1 function)
[13:16:02] <R2E4> ok
[13:16:16] <skunkworks> and it needs to be how andy has it.
[13:16:24] <skunkworks> (addf debounce.0 base-thread)
[13:16:46] <Loetmichel> CaptHindsight: ok, 144 screws was a bit much to design but its need HF protection ;-)
[13:16:48] <skunkworks> you used .1 and .2 which don't exist)
[13:16:50] <R2E4> hehe, yeah yeah,
[13:16:53] <CaptHindsight> heatsink compound is another, if you open a tube and use it one place it will magically appear smeared on the backside of a surface or on clothing rooms away
[13:17:11] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=14412
[13:17:51] <skunkworks> and you cannot have 2 separate delays for that one 'group'
[13:17:53] <CaptHindsight> 12^2 is a magic number :)
[13:18:31] <skunkworks> setp debounce.0.delay 20
[13:18:33] <Loetmichel> pure coincidence
[13:18:39] <skunkworks> andys example is perfect
[13:18:49] <Loetmichel> but the screws add some to the 12kg monitor/client weight

[13:31:19] <R2E4> ok, so I connect my toggle with pin. This part is working, do I use the debounce in the same net line?
[13:31:51] <R2E4> or do I setp toggle debounce then net the toggle to the input

[13:35:33] <jthornton> no
[13:36:05] <R2E4> yeah, it just told me.
[13:36:08] <jthornton> you just set it, your thinking of using the debounce component which is separate

[17:20:58] <R2E4> yeah I know, i read it. Problem is to understand it, you need to understand all the underlinung docs and syntax.
[17:21:20] <JT-Shop> R2E4, did you find the coolant toggle thread?
[17:21:39] <R2E4> I want to be able to look at a line or example and understand it in my head, signal path and relation to hardware.
[17:21:39] <R2E4> yeah I found it.
[17:21:54] <JT-Shop> each time you solve one little puzzle the rest of the docs make that much more sense when you read them
[17:22:06] <JT-Shop> was that what your trying to do?
[17:22:16] <R2E4> Yup
[17:23:23] <R2E4> I created a spreadsheet, with the 7i77 and all the I/O and I am mapping what I am going to need. I am trying the, what I think would be easy, but nothing really is coming off easy.
[17:23:39] <R2E4> Not impossible but reading trying asking and learning as I go.
[17:23:54] <R2E4>
[17:25:14] <JT-Shop> it even has a pretty diagram in that thread
[17:25:40] <archivist> I think a common problem is a bit of docs will only explain/show one or two points, missing out what the writer thought was obvious
[17:25:41] -!- RyanS has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[17:26:08] <jdh> that is often true when docs are written by subject matter experts
[17:26:34] <jdh> it is better for docs to be written by professional tech writers.
[17:26:59] <jdh> I keep trying that line but it never seems to work, I still end up having to write docs.
[17:27:46] <R2E4> As a newbie type, What is missing is the basic fundamental docs which explains the glue that holds everything together. Then all these docs that the guys are creating would be more clear.
[17:28:55] <R2E4> I am sure once I get up to speed and able to understnad the baiscs, I will understand when JT for example shoots me over one of his docs. Now it is taking alot of time, having to lookup each different part I havent seen yet.

[17:31:52] <JT-Shop> what is this glue you speak of?
[17:33:30] -!- phantoxe has quit []
[17:34:07] <archivist> sometimes the glue is referred to but not where it is eg in g83 1. Preliminary motion, as described above.
[17:36:36] <archivist> so having used an index to get to http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/2.5/html/gcode/gcode.html#sec:G83-Drilling-Peck, you are left wondering what "above" means
[17:38:54] <cradek> you can scroll up until you see talk about preliminary motion, which is a heading... I think that's pretty clear
[17:39:16] <archivist> yes but a link would be so simple
[17:39:30] <cradek> true a link to above would be better
[17:39:42] <cradek> a holdover from targeting printed docs, I bet
[17:39:54] <archivist> how many differing aboves are there
[17:39:55] <R2E4> The docs are amazing, but without the basic knowledge and understanding of the system, it is overwhelming.
[17:40:01] <pcw_home> or say preliminary motion as discussed in G81 section
[17:40:05] -!- amiri has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
[17:40:25] <archivist> exactly
[17:40:33] <pcw_home> (assuming links are not always available)
[17:40:39] <R2E4> The glue is the basic knowledge which is required to understand and implement diferent objects and sections.
[17:41:38] <jthornton> in HAL or all of LinuxCNC?
[17:42:14] <R2E4> in all of linuxcnc
[17:42:52] <pcw_home> no matter how you slice it that's a lot of ground to cover
[17:42:59] <jthornton> wow
[17:44:30] <jthornton> really from an integrator standpoint you mostly need to know HAL to create your configuration
[17:44:34] <R2E4> I love this stuff though. It took me a few years to decide to jump in and try an figure it out
[17:45:21] <archivist> but to use the comps in hal you have to jump out the main hal docs to the man pages
[17:45:39] <R2E4> I speak for myself when I say all LinuxCNC, cause I allready know Linux enough, but for someone that does not know Linux, I imagine it woulod be much tougher.
[17:45:42] <jthornton> yep
[17:46:47] <pcw_home> well for a simple machine a canned config avoids all this, retrofitting a complex machine is well... complex

[18:38:26] <einar_> Disappears upon starting that is.
[18:38:32] <andypugh> Axis deletes the spindle control if it doesn't see HAL file mentions of certain pins

[18:51:41] <einar_> <confused> I searced for spindle and got tons of hits. I have this: ppmc.0.DAC8.00.value. So I need to net it to some pin that is output from S<number>
[18:52:32] <einar_> I don't know the tag names, or where to start looking for them.
[18:52:57] <andypugh> net spindle-cmd motion.spindle-speed-out ppmc.0.DAC8.00.value ( http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/motion.9.html )
[18:53:16] <einar_> And I assume Axis needs to "see" a tag name for the current speed?
[18:53:31] <andypugh> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/examples/spindle.html
[18:54:03] <andypugh> Axis is a bit too clever for its own good and searches the HAL file for motion.spindle-speed-out (AFAIK)
[18:54:34] <skunkworks> or it might just look at the current running hal..
[18:56:42] <einar_> Ohh! There's some documentation I did not notice: "man". I'm off reading (again). ;-)
[18:57:56] <andypugh> skunkworks: Aye, it might do that. I am not sure which is easier.
[18:58:13] <skunkworks> right
[18:58:43] <einar_> So "spindle-cmd" is from S<number> ?
[18:59:10] <skunkworks> andypugh, peter reprocuced my issue with the 7i80.. (I don't feel so stupid now)
[18:59:20] <andypugh> einar_: Indeed
[18:59:22] <Tom_itx> heh
[18:59:38] <andypugh> einar_: Ah, no, actually, not at all
[19:00:20] <andypugh> "spindle-cmd" is entirely meaningless, we could have called it "cheese-on-toast" and the HAL would work just as well

[20:17:34] <anonimasu> PCW: I am wondering some stuff about the sincos encoders of mine and how would I actually get them connected to emc
[20:17:38] <anonimasu> to use with the 8i20's
[20:18:05] <einar_> I'm celebrating output on my analog port controlled by S-word and Spindle override! :-)
[20:18:58] <anonimasu> and I saw andypugh's stuff using a ardino with a sincos lookup table for resolvers, which would be a very neat solution(if you could use the sserial for it somehow)
[20:20:59] <anonimasu> and the big question is is the sslbp/sslbp stuff that is in the 8i20 something you (could) decipler and pull data from a arduino to emc with?
[20:22:18] <einar_> Sincos as in Hiperface?

[20:49:46] <anonimasu> it's not particularily neat specially with multiple motors, rather a arduino to just calculate the arctan and throw it as startup position for each motor
[20:49:55] <anonimasu> rather the python in userspace and rs232<->rs485 and then decode it..
[20:51:21] <PCW> you should be able to use the IC-Haus interpolators for this
[20:51:26] ChuangTzu_ is now known as ChuangTzu
[20:53:17] <PCW> an arduino may work for a resolver (1 or 2 sine/cos cycles/turn) but not a sin/cos optical encoder (possibly 1000s of cycles/turn)

[22:22:24] <einar_> Many years ago I did EMC (not EMC2) on my mill. It was kind of monkey see, monkey do. Now I at least think I'm starting to understand.
[22:23:35] <einar_> The new manuals are a huge improvement!!!
[22:25:36] <JT-Shop> thanks, I spent a long long time working on them

[22:30:26] <andypugh> Argh! I did my CAM using an 8mm cutter. Guess what size I don't have?
[22:31:35] <jdh> add some cutter compensation and tell it you have <whatever size> cutter
[22:32:25] <andypugh> Hard to do when it is all CAM-ed up.
[22:33:12] <Tom_itx> easy with cad cam
[22:33:52] <andypugh> I don't have the model, or the CAM system here. I emailed myself the NGC. (this was silly)
[22:34:07] <Tom_itx> woops
[22:34:18] <jdh> I CAM'ed a 0.25" end mill since I had some new ones. Cut everything and the inside holes were too small. Turns out the new one was really 0.235"
[22:34:39] <einar_> Use a file?
[22:36:34] <einar_> But wait. If it's a circular hole/pocket, fiddling with compensation could save it. I have done so.
[22:36:55] <andypugh> No, it's a comlex 3D shape
[22:38:01] <einar_> Ahh. Then there is nothing but re-CAM.

[22:43:54] <Tom_itx> or is this a lathe part?

[23:11:25] <andypugh> I was rather hoping to finish the job today though.
[23:13:05] <Tom_itx> you don't think cutter comp would work?
[23:14:05] <andypugh> It would, if the code had been written that way, but I can't tell which side of the work each pass is by just looking at the G-code

[23:26:37] <Tom_itx> is there a 'one shot' function where i feed an input and it pulses?
[23:27:09] <Tom_itx> toggle might work
[23:27:58] <andypugh> There is a function called "oneshot"
[23:28:37] <andypugh> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/oneshot.9.html
[23:28:45] <Tom_itx> yep just pulled up the docs
[23:30:47] <Tom_itx> seems both edges trigger it
[23:31:24] <andypugh> You get to choose which
[23:31:50] <andypugh> (use two of them and an or2 to trigger on both edges)
[23:32:03] <Tom_itx> ok i see that now
[23:38:00] <Tom_itx> can you use 2 toggles side by side as a flipflop with opposing outputs?
[23:38:34] <Tom_itx> ahh i see flipflip now..

[23:40:01] <Tom_itx> only one out though
[23:43:04] <archivist> JT-Shop, that's better, the retracts in G83, are they at different rates, methinks not, should line 6 be rapid out rather than traverse rate? similar for the other drill cycles?

[23:48:48] <andypugh> archivist: I think we might have fixed that
[23:49:06] <andypugh> Ah, no, wait, misunderstood
[23:49:23] <andypugh> I think "traverse rate" is a comfusing way to say "rapid"
[23:49:40] <archivist> exactly my point :)
[23:53:38] <Tom_itx> are halui.program.pause and halui.program.resume pulsed inputs or do you hold them in state?
[23:56:10] <JT-Shop> archivist, yes it is confusing to use two different terms in the same spot for the same thing, thanks for spotting that
