My custom designed GUI

Many thanks to both for take your time in help me.
@Cncbasher, that error is similar to mine.
@AndyPugh, can you be more explicit about filename and the component name don't match?
Don´t understand too A .comp file needs to have a component name in HAL that matches the file name.
Many thanks to both again for your help.

Kindly regards.

I am assuming that craftsman_toolchange is a .comp file, that might not be the case.

What is it?

I think maybe you have reason about comp file, beecause is a .dat file.
I attacht it.
Many thanks.

Regards.

[strike]The file you attached is a single byte file containing only the character "0".

Is that really your craftsman_toolchanger file?[/strike]

I found the file in the earlier zip file. It's a python file, an alternative to hal_manualtoolchange.

It seems to do the right things:

You have reason i send a wrong file, sorry me.
But i don´t what you wanna say with the rest of your words.
Sorry again.
Many thanks for your help.

Kindly regards.

Hi

You will need to edit the following line in the 3 files in the bin folder (craftsmancnc, craftsman_toolchange & vfd_spindle)

sys.path.append('/home/craftsman/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/')
should be changed to your local configuration:
sys.path.append('/home/sarah/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/')

In the crafstmancnc file there is another line to be changed:

xmlname = os.path.join('/home/craftsman/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/',"craftsmancnc.glade")
to:
xmlname = os.path.join(''/home/sarah/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/'',"craftsmancnc.glade")

These files should also be set in their properties to "Execute"

The file vfd_controller in your /home/sarah/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/ folder also has the line:

sys.path.append('/home/craftsman/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/')
needs to change to:
sys.path.append('/home/sarah/linuxcnc/configs/craftsmancnc/')

Note: the /sarah/ part should be changed to your local configuration name.

The file you have attached, toolchange.dat, only keeps track of what tool is currently loaded when running a gcode file.

Hope it helps
