Development: PID Tuning GUI and HAL

Thank you for your work and for quick response.
usually work with the analog oscilloscope and then how it was working.
for example if I open from emc2 halscope, moving motors emc2 halscope disappears ...
I read the guide to better halscope
thanks
Mauro

Ciao Mauro, when i use halscope i use to click in the left top angle of the window and select 'sempre in primo piano' i don't know the english way, but i'm sure you have that in italian..
this way the scope will be always in sight.

grazie Dab77
I tried to run "halrun -f config.hal" but I get this error:
config.hal: 10: Can not find module 'line4to2'in / usr/realtime-2.6.32-122-rtai/modules/emc2.
I copied these forms, but should not be the same

Hello Mauro,

The configuration is fine. There are some files though, with the extension .comp. These files are custom HAL components. To utilise these components you must pull up a terminal, traverse to the directory where the comp files are located and run:

comp --install *.comp

That should compile and install the HAL components, and next time you run the setup, those errors should go away.

Thanks Mikey, I feel tomorrow I'm going to bed

I tried the first simple version, and now this error.

mauro@mauro-cnc:~/emc2/configs/tuning$ halrun -f config.hal
config.hal:4: Warning: File contains DOS-style line endings.
insmod: error inserting '/usr/realtime-2.6.32-122-rtai/modules/emc2/scope_rt.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
<commandline>:0: exit value: 1
<commandline>:0: insmod failed, returned -1
See the output of 'dmesg' for more information.
loadrt scope_rt failed

thanks
Mauro

Strange error, but outside the scope of the thread. Looks like a potential compilation problem? Otherwise, it might be an error emanating from your configuration file. Ensure that it has UN*X line endings, which I think are \n, not \r\n which is standard DOS/Windows.

in effect during the command: comp - install *. comp appeared warning ....
the test was done on a PC with the latest versions of EMC2 and hostmot2 on ubuntu 10.04
thanks
Mauro

i downloaded the zip how do i start it? thanx
