component compile problem

Many months have passed, but we are back on the lathe .
Have made good progress but the carousel still not functioning.
The tool rotation is working with a single push of VCP "turn-turret" button ( one tool at the time)
Have installed carousel.comp
- it senses turret position.
-M6 Tx starts rotation, but nothing more.

For a little video action showing the one push turret rotation

I do not see, that you have connected the tool changed signal!
So the toolchange loop stays open and LinuxCNC will wait for ever, until the loop is closed.

I am not sure what all the timedelay components are for?

Hi Andy

I'm using the 3 part delay sequence to turn turret with single push on VCP button (or M6 command soon )
Instead of classic ladder
Not a big fan of having pieces of code everywhere.( don't know ladder anyway)

The Wieler turret needs the version of carousel from master / 2.8 and then needs the parity and strobe bits connected.

Hi Andy
-With what should I connect the strobe?
-Not sure if I need parity ??? have 4 position turret each with its own sensor

Managed to get the turret (carousel) to rotate with a VCP button
No ladder program used.
Still have a little bug when connecting to spindle-enable,
as the turret lock always requires hydraulic pressure.

Henk helped me to connect it to the iocontrol - M6
Thanks again Henk

will post when completed.(bug free)

PS. Andy I used your carousel component - had to use num_sense= 5 ( I only have 4 sensors)
But it works great, thanks
