freelancer needed to create a routine for ATC tool change (rackchange)

this won't work either in sim mode or in reality, I tried something via chatgpt but I know that it doesn't work, it can't create a routine. here is my configuration if anyone is free to look at where the error is and what needs to be added in Hal eventually. Tx m6 works but will not return the tool to its pocket when you give it another tool, it also reports in the bottom line that there is no tool even though in reality it took it. each pocket has its own active high sensor on inputs 16-21 and the spindle has a sensor for ``flush'' input 10 the tool is in the spindle, input 12 reports that there is no tool in the spindle. Thanks

yes that is y-191, I got to the point where it wants to take the tool, but it won't put it back in the pocket when I choose a new one, down in the header it also says ``no tool''

yes, I saw it on YT that you were working, I just don't know which linuxcnc it was, mine is now 2.9.0 and when I export the sim configuration for racktoolchange, it puts it in the configuration, but Linux at the start shows some errors about gladevcp or something similar related to gtk and it won't run the simulation, maybe I should try to insert my ini and hal and leave the routine in the folder, or take the routine from that configuration and insert it into mine, I don't know.
 

how do i upgrade linuxcnc only, without losing the configs and leaving bookworm? apt upgrade only adds office and some other things..

Your configs are in your ~/linuxcnc folder so keep it. If you used the linuxcnc ISO
sudo apt upgrade might do it.

I just published a video on how to upgrade to 2.9.7 on Trixie because it has 2.9.4 available in the Debian repos.
The apt pinning method I describe could be used on Bookworm as well. In fact uninstalling linuxcnc and removing the linuxcnc.list file in the APT folders would let you follow my Trixie method on Bookworm just keep the sources files pointing to bookworm
 

thank you, I managed to make a path for the first 3 tools that read ini by delta y, but the problem remained with the 4-5-6 because the raster between the tools is not the same as 1-2-3 because the motor and the ballscrew go in the middle of the machine, which was bothering them, so the other 3 tools are spaced out, I have to figure out how to do it via delta y or how to write for each tool separately... I hope I can solve it somehow.
