Re: ATC functional, but gets some pockets wrong

Good morning, When provided with the updated macro, I tried it immediately on Nov 13. Then I tried the latest 5.07.r15 on Nov 21 when it was provided to me on this forum. Neither worked. One caveats: V5.07.r15 sets Param 160 to 1. Then it fails asking for a tool0position.cnc file. I set parameter 1...

Re: Problems with Centroid_OAK_Mill_SpinBrake-r2.src

Can someone tell me which input DO4 is for the Z axis so that I can program the clamping for the Z axis in the PLC? If your going to modify the PLC, any available output should work on the Oak board. Just would need to modify the PLC to support the logic you want for that Output. I recommend Output...

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.

RogDC, G30 (Return #2) is used for your ATC Tool Change position, specifically the Z-Flyover height which is 20.8099 as set by you in the wizard. This value is written to G30 for the ATC. When Changing Return #2 in CNC12 there is a pop up that states that it is the Z value for the Tool change. I rec...

Re: ATC functional, but gets some pockets wrong <resolved>

This is a known issue with the current version of the "Maintain a tool library" for Rack Mount Bins. The Problem seems to be caused by "lookahead" assigning the putback bin before CNC12 fully has a chance to update the bin. Attached is the updated M6 Macro with the fix, and is pa...

Re: Changes to probing and TT in v5.07r12

Sword, thanks for testing that.

We will have to set that parameter again, was an oversight. Should be fixed in next revisions.

Re: Changes to probing and TT in v5.07r12

Sword,

Looking into this further, Try Setting parameter 404 to "70267" and see if that corrects your issue.

Re: Changes to probing and TT in v5.07r12

Sword, You are using a Probe to measure your Tool Height Offsets with a fixed TT, and a TT to probe part positions (your plate?). If i read that right, might be better to switch which input they using. In addition, NC devices (That open when tripped) require a detect input. Can see all the available...

Re: Centroid CNC12 v5.07 REV12 BETA is now available.

Initial installation on my benchtop router/laser combo went well. The no ATC and custom M6 macro deletion is still present. In the Wizard ATC setup, If you do not have an ATC and leave set to "None", shouldn't the following settings be grayed out, and when saving settings, not delete a cu...

Re: spindlecoolingfan on m37

Hello cryptonym, It does make sense to not turn on the spindle fan when the laser is active. I have taken your plc from your report and modified it to prevent the spindle cooling fan output when M37 is active. To install simply extract the contents of the .zip into your C:\cncm directory and overwri...

Re: Outputs for an Acorn controlled slant bed lathe.

Exhibitology, I noticed after restoring your report when i press tail stock in/out that Output 7 will turn on. When i press chuck Out or In, Output 8 appears to turn on. But do not see a away to turn them off. What is your intent? I suggest adding macros to turn off the outputs via M95 /111 and M95 ...
