# JOG under PAUSE/ToolChange?: Alow users to jog machine when program is paused or M6 executed. The TouchOff? should be enabled too and maybe even MDI added by: Slavko |

# JOG under PAUSE: Alow users to jog machine when program is paused (can be in middle of the line). The TouchOff? should be enabled. MDI can be useful. Useful feature for removing swarf and broken tools. added by: Slavko # Jog under M0/M1/M6 ToolChange: Alow users to jog machine when program is paused within program. The TouchOff? should be enabled. MDI can be useful. Useful - near mandatory for spindles with collets as height is unknown. added by: Slavko |

# configuration wizard: the basic setup, namely for "hobby machines", is still too complicated. A solution like Ray's (?) unfinished "emc-qconfig" would be helpfull: http://linuxcnc.org/Dropbox/emc-qconfig.png added by: Ronald Resolution (Jepler): Stepconf is part of emc2_2.2.x# configuration verifier/troubleshooter: helper script/program for emc2. It loads a specified emc .ini file and HAL - then: a) Asks you to activate each input - i.e. "Activate the Negative limit switch for the X axis..." [user presses the switch he thinks is right] "Error! home switch on Y axis activated. Error in wiring or in HAL config (filename). Expected HAL-hardware-pin-name-1, got HAL-hardware-pin-name-2" b) Triggers each output (under user supervision) - i.e. "Click TEST to activate flood coolant." [when user clicks, the output (coolant in this case) is activated until button is released] c) Asks user to move each axis by hand to verify feedback channel and polarity (optional, since mechanism may be too heavy and since disabling drives may mean disabling feedback, and since it won't work with stepper motors) d) Slowly jogs each axis to verify drive function and polarity (only if home and limit switches are working) added by: mpictor -- users and developers lists i think this is satisfied by stepconf, move back to request list if not |
