LinuxCNC 2.9.0 configuration problem

Will give a try...

Thanks Chris

Hi Chris,

the modification of the .Pncconfig works fine, now the A-axis can be configured (general Axis and Motor parameters have the right units).
Great job !
this must be done every time the configuration is modified ?

Have some other suggestions for the config (see attachments):

1) beside the mm/inch choice for the linear movement a deg/rad for the A axis could be foreseen (nice to have)


2) display geometry definition xyz or xyza does not affect the visualisation of all 4 axis defined in the config (= all 4 are displayed)


3) Question: is the "Max Velocity" concerned for the linear movement only ? Otherwise one additional for the angular velocity would be nice

4) the steps of +/- selection for the manual axis movement should contain also the "degs steps" for the A-axis. These are defined at the beginning of the configuration under the "Increments" section. I would make two separate "Increments" resp. +/- selection sections for length and angle




5) the Jog Speed deg/min does not seem to correspond the real value when moving (maybe only a problem with the pulses/rev definition)

6) all the regulation slides (jog speed, max velocity, override) are quite rough in the settings (with mouse pointer drag). A tipping value would be much better or at least an additional fine slide dragging with mouse roll (keeping the mouse pointer for a coarse setting)


That's it, what you think ?

Have a great Friday

You won't have to do the manual fix more then once - it only happens when changing a config from xyz to xyza.
It's fixed in the next uodate.

1) I've actually never heard of anyone wanting rad for the A Axis.
2) Display Geometry affects how the plotter displays the rotational axes; It won't do anything on a XYZ config.

3)Max velocity sets the absolute maximum velocity of any axis - in therory ;

4) AXIS doesn't support separate rates comboboxes for linear/angular axes. You must combine them in the one box.

5) Are you talking about in AXIS or in Pncconf?

6) That's an AXIS limitation and/or a computer userspace lag problem. I don't delve into AXIS, but will look into solutios for Qtvcp's version

i have problem with Pncconf for mesa card 5i25 as pictures.
Pls help to overcome
System info: OS Linuxmint 19.2
Linuxcnc 2.9
Kernel RT PREEMPT

Seems to indicate there is a problem with language translations.
What language is your computer set for?

I'm using English
