Orient component revised

alkabal wrote: now i understand why you want spindle on with S0, but it is better to have your setup or use a orient component ?

can i ask more about what you have do in your config ?

So My indexer is not going to work with you rorient component because it's stepper based.
My main spindle is a servo motor, but currently can only run i one direction.
I haven't had a chance to set up rour orient on my main spindle yet.

I did find where linuxcnc sets M5 when S=0, so i want to test that change too.

Saad but this yes this component is do for regular motor.

Hi i have see your topic some time ago when i try to setup original orient.comp but imo this component is really hard to setup correctly .

I like if you can check about this work in progress new comp i have do the most possible for allow easy setup.

copy past hal exemple from comp
add pid settings
remove 2 hal link from spindle setup and past to orient hal maybee adapt net link name for match your spindle net link name for this 2 link

first change :
#net spindle-enable => [HMOT](CARD0).7i83.0.0.analogena0 # moved in the orient input output

net spindle-enable => orient.orient-spindle.ena-from-velocity
net spindle-orient-enable-out => [HMOT](CARD0).7i83.0.0.analogena0 # moved in the orient input/output but initially in spindle setup

second change :
#net spindle-vel-cmd-out => [HMOT](CARD0).7i83.0.0.analogout0 # moved in the orient input output

net spindle-vel-cmd-out => orient.orient-spindle.cmd-from-pid-velocity
net spindle-orient-ctrl-out => [HMOT](CARD0).7i83.0.0.analogout0 # moved in the orient input/output but initially in spindle setup

I'm in the process of upgrading to 2.9 and implementing Probe Basic - once I have that going then I can experiment with the code!

But unfortunately it will probably be some weeks out. Happy to help how I can though

Hello
Please give the working hal file and ini pid section ORIENT

Hi

I think all is already here but i have attached my ini hal comp and pyvcp for reference;

Some parts of the oreint process are not really finished and need review, any help are really welcome.

New version that allow to use different spindle control type like :

-Analog with +-10v for speed and direction management like kbmg-212D
-Analog with 0/10v for speed and relay for swapp motor wire
-Analog with 0/10v for speed and one or two input for direction selection like Omron MX2
I think this can work with PWM spindle control

Please help is needed for do something better :
-Some issue with jog mode need/can be enhanced
-I'm sure the whole positionnement method can be better with more knowledge

Imo my attempt is mostly interesting for the safe and easy integration in existing config. (positonement is accurate)

Edit : updated revision with two relay management like Serg452 setup with Omron MX2
