[19:55:11] <cradek> well that bites
[20:04:17] <kwallace> I'm using feed rate compensation on arcs in my milling g-code generators. I calculate an adjusted feed from the ratio between the tool control point radius and the arc surface radius. This gives me the same rate on the arc surface as called out for a straight cut. In giving it more thought, the tool is usually cutting most of the tool diameter width, so with wide tools on small radii, the feed rate can be very different across the tool width.
[20:06:12] <cradek> yeah it's really not clear what's best to do
[20:06:17] -!- FreezingCold has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[20:13:11] <kwallace> I guess I need to look at each set of values for tool and path, then change the calculation to fit if needed. I kind of wish I had thought of this earlier.
[20:13:49] <cradek> "just don't do that" might be a decent solution
[20:14:18] <cradek> or only slow down if your part is on the long side, don't speed up if it's on the short
[20:14:41] <cradek> I have never compensated arc feeds in that way and it hasn't bitten me yet
[20:15:54] <kwallace> Indeed. I wonder what G41/42 does.

[20:16:06] <Tom_itx> i can say it's not something production shops worry with
[20:16:33] <cradek> g41/g42 mode theoretically has enough knowledge to do this, but it doesn't do it
[20:17:00] <cradek> I bet it causes more problems than it solves, unless the tools are very big
[20:18:04] <Tom_itx> generally speaking larger tools are used for roughing passes where it matters little
[20:18:13] <Tom_itx> it's the finish pass that pays the money
[20:18:25] <cradek> did you go down this path for practical reasons - to solve a problem, or just because it seemed right to do?
[20:19:33] -!- tocka has quit [Quit: My MacBook Pro has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
[20:19:41] <Tom_itx> climb vs conventional will cause you just as much grief
[20:19:51] <kwallace> It seemed right, plus some of my cuts sounded better, but it may not apply everywhere.
[20:22:28] <kwallace> I seem to recall being influenced by this: http://www.sandvik.coromant.com/en-gb/knowledge/milling/application_overview/holes_and_cavities/circular_external_milling_ramping/Pages/default.aspx
[20:22:43] <Tom_itx> i think my cam has a setting for arcs but i'm not sure i use it
[20:23:44] <kwallace> Fortunately, my CNC machines are pretty tight so I always climb.
[20:23:53] <Tom_itx> yeah
[20:23:59] <Tom_itx> you're better off if you can
[20:27:05] <kwallace> I think I'll look at calculating the max and min effective feed rate, then apply compensation if it seems reasonable, but otherwise turn it off.
[20:29:36] <cradek> I'd think the only-slow-down algorithm might be the "reasonable" test

[20:38:34] <cradek> grr, if the motor on C was the same, I could just use Y's amp
[20:41:30] <Tom_itx> kwallace is it that noticeable a change?
[20:41:58] <Tom_itx> true they'll work harden but constant feed is what you're after there

[20:46:02] <Tom_itx> FSWizzard is a good tool to follow
[20:46:09] <cradek> so, looks like custom 5i25 firmware, or go back to a plain parallel port
[20:46:13] <cradek> I don't like either option
[20:46:33] <Tom_itx> why not?
[20:46:42] <Tom_itx> it's not that difficult to mod a bit file
[20:47:01] <cradek> if I have one that nobody else is using, it won't get bugfixes

[20:47:27] <Tom_itx> early test model?
[20:47:53] <cradek> all software is an early test model :-)

[20:56:41] <kwallace> Recently, I wanted to play with a FET bridge using a 20kHz PWM with decent resolution. I was surprised to find my Arduino could do it at 20kHz and 10 bit resolution with a few lines of code. I didn't need to resort to an FPGA.
[20:58:22] <Tom_itx> yep

[21:01:27] <cradek> pcw_home: would you build me a custom 5i25 firmware please?
[21:03:49] <cradek> I think I am currently using 5i25_dmmbob1x2.pin but I need an additional stepgen on the external connector, dir=16 step=17
[21:04:12] <cradek> I don't use the PWMs
[21:04:22] <Tom_itx> is your current bit file custom?
[21:04:51] <cradek> no
[21:05:41] <Tom_itx> just one extra stepgen on pin 16 17?

[21:07:22] <Tom_itx> i don't see the file in the zip
[21:09:43] <cradek> that's in my 5i25.zip
[21:10:02] <cradek> I think it's the one that matches what I'm getting from mesaflash --readhmid
[21:10:57] <Tom_itx> i just grabbed a fresh one...

[21:36:16] <Tom_itx> not finding a .vhd file for it
[21:37:08] <Tom_itx> maybe the 5i25 is configured differently..
[21:37:14] <Tom_itx> i'm not sure since i don't have one
[21:50:51] <Tom_itx> cradek if i could find it i'd look at it...

[22:02:15] <Tom_itx> what IO are they?
[22:02:22] <Tom_itx> 5 & 7?
[22:02:43] <Tom_itx> those are pin 16 & 17 but not sure which connector
[22:03:05] <cradek> pretty sure 5/7 is right
[22:03:21] <cradek> you could add a stepgen to both connectors

[22:52:11] <cradek> no, I only need the 5 of them on the external connector

[22:56:57] <Tom_itx> are you using the internal connector?
[22:58:09] <Tom_itx> i have 5 on the external one now
[22:58:25] <cradek> no, I don't care about the internal connector
[22:58:43] <Tom_itx> dir pin 16 step pin 17

[23:03:44] <Tom_itx> ok we'll see what happens
[23:10:01] <seb_kuzminsky> i've got a test here, written in C using lui, that triggers the dropped-mdi bug within about an hour of repeated running
[23:10:30] <seb_kuzminsky> i'm confident the bug is present in task in 2.6
[23:10:48] <seb_kuzminsky> i tried to write a test using the "linuxcnc" python module in 2.6 to trigger the bug, but it won't bite
[23:10:53] <cradek> ugh, an hour
[23:11:05] <Tom_itx> generating bit file
[23:11:06] <seb_kuzminsky> the bug is highly sensitive to timing, and i'm guessing that python's too slow to trigger it
[23:11:33] <seb_kuzminsky> i think i'm going to make sure it's fixed in my lui branch, then cherry-pick the task fix back to 2.6 and merge it up
[23:11:49] <seb_kuzminsky> because i'm so sick of this thing that i dont want to write a non-lui C program to test for the bug
[23:12:06] <cradek> yeah just fix it and move on, jeez
[23:12:14] <seb_kuzminsky> cradek: i really want to see a video of max grinding lenses
[23:12:15] <seb_kuzminsky> :-)
[23:12:30] <cradek> a test that triggers a bug once an hour isn't something we want the buildbot to run anyway
[23:12:43] <seb_kuzminsky> heh yeah
[23:13:08] <seb_kuzminsky> it's blind luck that the little lui test happened to trigger the bug randomly one time
[23:13:12] <seb_kuzminsky> for some definition of luck
[23:13:51] <seb_kuzminsky> <+cradek> yeah just fix it and move on, jeez
[23:13:58] <seb_kuzminsky> i get that a lot from my $DAYJOB boss too...

[23:21:50] <Tom_itx> added the c suffix
[23:22:00] <cradek> Tom_itx: could you also put the vhd and pin there?
[23:22:08] <Tom_itx> vhd yes
[23:22:11] <Tom_itx> pin maybe

[23:24:21] <Tom_itx> i've never used one
[23:25:43] <Tom_itx> you can edit your other one to reflect pin 16 17 stepgen
[23:27:51] <Tom_itx> i should clean up the vhd file
[23:28:00] <Tom_itx> i left the original lines commented out...

[23:43:40] <Tom_itx> if for some reason that's too many stepgens i can get rid of one off the other connector
[23:43:59] <Tom_itx> i ran into one once where i had too many functions defined
