Re: FRV - Feed Rate Variation New Function <FRV and SSV are now standard features of CNC12 v5.2+ >

Acorn, Acornsix, and Hickory have FRV and SSV added to the PLC for the Wizard Versions of the PLCs. Oak/Allin1DC and others would require a modification to the PLC as of current for the feature.

Can look at the acorn/acornsix or hickory PLC as a reference for integrating it to other PLCs.

Re: EMCO turn 55 ATC Problem

I tried running M18 but it just keeps turning the turret and it doesn't stop. I can see on the diagnostics that it does trip that input when the wheel with that interrupted section crosses across the optical sensor. Can you please create a report, so i may look at your setup. Ensure the input for t...

Re: EMCO turn 55 ATC Problem

Bringing this post back up as I am having the same issue. Any update from anyone who has tackled this? If I index the turret it goes forward as long as I am holding the "index turret" button and when I let it go it backs up to the last position. However I can't home the turret to the #1 t...

Re: Spindle brake time question

Hello, I have the same question for the Allin1DC control. I tried the Acorn PLC modification but it is not working. For Allin1DC, the logic is a little different from Acorn. If you are using the Spindle Brake PLC for ALLIN1DC (Centroid_ALLIN1DC_Mill_SpinBrake-r5.src) then you should have the follow...

Re: How to locate programs?

The stock spindle warm up file is at C:\cncm\system\perform_spindle_warmup.cnc. Edit it to have what your previous file has (copy/paste), or just copy your file into that folder and rename it to perform_spindle_warmup.cnc. Rename the stock one to something like perform_spindle_warmup_OEM.cnc first....

Re: SSV and FRV question

Hello, If i understand you correctly, you would like to turn the FRV and SSV features on/off with a button instead of with an M-Code? Currently the only two option is the M-Code or via the USB-BOB inputs with the provided Centroid PLC. However, new skin events for the VCP could be added to the PLC v...

Re: Marking error

This is a known issue with V5.22, and has been corrected in V5.24.

It only required a macro update, so attached is the V5.24 macro. Can replace the file in C:\cncm\system and should correct the issue for V5.22 as well.

Re: EMCO turn 55 ATC Problem

Here is the report. You should change your INP4 to "ToolTurretCounter", this is the proper input for the tool counter. Likely the reason it would continue to rotate. If time Turret works, can always switch back to it after trying counter turret again. Since this works, it uses the Same M1...
