[00:47:15] <Jymmm> spack: I think almost 5/8" hasp
[00:47:34] <spack> you cut that?
[00:47:57] <Jymmm> spack: Not yet, I LITERALLY just got them 20 minutes ago.

[00:51:28] <Jymmm> JT-Shop: Actualy something from HF half way worth a damn AND a lifetime warranty =)
[00:51:56] <spack> yeah
[00:52:06] <spack> i tried to get a spot welder there a few weeks ago with the 20% off coupon
[00:52:17] <spack> apparently it doesn't cover welders anymore
[00:52:26] <Jymmm> spack: ah, bummer
[00:52:41] <Jymmm> HF is hit and miss on the products. Mostly miss
[00:53:09] <Jymmm> the bolt cutters actually have 5 star reviews, wow
[00:53:16] <CaptHindsight> they just had their Giant Tool Sale and I didn't even see one giant tool

[03:08:24] <joebog> quick question guys, the stepper morors that I have at present hace a 45 volt supply to the motor board without load, how critical is this ?
[03:08:30] <joebog> can I reduce the voltage ?
[03:09:39] <joebog> wow my spelling is attrocious !!
[03:09:50] <joebog> actually its my typing :)
[03:19:20] <CaptHindsight> http://www.selene.co/Blog/2011/07/stepper-motor-voltages-explained/
[03:20:10] <joebog> thanks Capt
[03:20:22] -!- _wilson_ has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[03:20:39] <CaptHindsight> whats the maximum voltage input of your stepper driver ?
[03:21:06] <joebog> 48V
[03:21:23] <CaptHindsight> 45V is higher than any of the Toshiba stepper IC's I've noticed
[03:21:42] <CaptHindsight> ah then never mind
[03:21:52] <joebog> I thought that was flying pretty close ??
[03:22:16] <joebog> its not my "normal" method, but thats what I found in the Cipher box
[03:22:46] <joebog> ans my motors DONT have makers or ratings plates !!!
[03:23:02] <joebog> removed by my greedy supplier !!! at Cipher
[03:25:24] <CaptHindsight> http://www.geckodrive.com/gecko/images/cms_files/Step%20Motor%20Basics%20Guide.pdf
[03:25:38] <CaptHindsight> ^^ covers it pretty well
[03:26:19] <joebog> still reading first link :) but Im logging them all so I can go back
[03:27:13] <joebog> so for my test bed setup it would be OK to run say 35 volts ?
[03:27:27] <CaptHindsight> yes
[03:27:39] <joebog> I know the speed will suffer, but for testing it should be OK or am I going to have problems ?
[03:27:58] <CaptHindsight> should be fine
[03:28:26] <joebog> thks
[03:29:04] <CaptHindsight> just to be safe in case they are some goofy design or spec, check the temp after a few seconds and then again after 30 sec and a few minutes
[03:29:22] <joebog> I am contemplating a MESA setup for these tests
[03:30:03] <joebog> the 5i25 and daughter card is that acceptable ?
[03:30:27] <joebog> its a kit thats available ( as you probably know)
[03:30:37] <CaptHindsight> for step generation but the driver will actually control the voltage and current to the windings
[03:30:53] <joebog> yep I understand
[03:31:20] <joebog> the Mesa kit is my idea of buffering
[03:31:47] <joebog> I have a limited budget :)
[03:32:09] <joebog> so I am trying to get the best bang for the buck so to speak
[03:32:35] <joebog> and without winding a specific unit for the tests I thought to use something I have off the shelf
[03:33:47] <joebog> I am trying not to strip the Cipher unit, The customer wants to try sell it on
[03:35:20] <CaptHindsight> snoozing time
[03:35:28] <joebog> k thanks again

[14:31:56] <Aero-Tec> is there a way to get G83 working in G18 mode?
[14:33:01] <Aero-Tec> the lathe is complaining that there is no Y axis and it is needed for a G83 canned cycle, looks like all canned cycles need a Y axis
[14:33:30] <Aero-Tec> any way around this?
[14:48:17] <Aero-Tec> did some more looking on the net
[14:48:53] <Aero-Tec> looks like the work around it is to set G17, do the canned cycle and then set G18
[14:49:15] <Aero-Tec> so what is gained by using G18 at all?
[14:49:27] <Aero-Tec> why even set it

[15:31:45] <JT-Shop> I have a MPG that when I turn it in the + direction sometimes the axis will move on increment then bounce back. What do I look for?
[15:32:06] <jdh> debounce the mpg?
[15:32:24] <Tom_itx> maybe it's in the middle of a step on your steppers
[15:32:43] <jdh> or the detent isn't well aligned with the encoder wheel?
[15:33:11] <Tom_itx> if they're wired funny, it will change on the rise of the detent not the valley
[15:33:49] -!- jt183 has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[15:34:06] <Tom_itx> it could just be gremlins

[15:34:26] <JT-Shop> lol
[15:34:51] <JT-Shop> it only does it if I turn CW slow
[15:35:20] <Tom_itx> look in halscope and see if it's reading the change
[15:35:25] <Tom_itx> on both channels
[15:35:35] <Tom_itx> 90deg out of phase

[15:44:14] <JT-Shop> yes this is the connections
http://pastebin.com/u9aC6rh0
[15:45:00] <pcw_home> If you use the normal enccoder input in up/down mode it will do that
[15:45:34] <pcw_home> (because up/down mode /= 1x quadrature mode)
[15:46:13] <JT-Shop> counter-mode = up/down mode?
[15:46:21] <pcw_home> unfortunately theres no 1X mode in the hardware encoders
[15:46:31] <pcw_home> Yes up/down
[15:47:08] <pcw_home> the best solution is probably to update your 7I77 firmware and use the MPG inputs on the field I/O
[15:47:27] <pcw_home> (they default to 1x mode)

[15:56:31] <pcw_home> for 7I77 firmware update you need to power cycle the 7I77
[15:56:40] <pcw_home> twice!
[15:56:49] <JT-Shop> ok
[15:57:00] <Jymmm> pcw_home: five times!!!
[15:57:04] <Aero-Tec> so no input for using G18 with a lathe?

[15:57:21] <JT-Shop> <JT-Shop> so G2/3 works
[15:57:22] <pcw_home> remote sserial update also requires linuxcnc master
[15:57:35] <Jymmm> brb

[16:01:08] <skunkworks> Aero-Tec, it isn't as much 'lathe mode' as it selects the xz plane. (so you can do arcs in them amoung other things athat I cannot think of)

[16:56:41] <Aero-Tec> that G19 trick did not work
[16:57:01] <Aero-Tec> it looks like it moves the X not the Z
[16:57:28] <Aero-Tec> the lathe is setup with no Y axis programed in the INI or the HAL
[16:58:01] <Aero-Tec> could there be a axis mix up when doing the G19 command?

[16:59:34] <IchGuckLive> give it a geometry = XZ

[17:00:02] <Aero-Tec> so why are things all messed up when I use G19 to run can cycles?
[17:00:10] <Aero-Tec> want to run G83
[17:00:21] <Aero-Tec> but it will not do it in G18 mode
[17:00:27] <Aero-Tec> needs G19
[17:00:48] <IchGuckLive> lathe in ini shoudt set this
[17:00:53] <Aero-Tec> but when I do that Z becomes X
[17:01:30] <Aero-Tec> not sure what X becomes
[17:01:34] <IchGuckLive> Whow never had this
[17:01:56] <IchGuckLive> 2.5.2
[17:02:03] <Aero-Tec> will have to play some more to find out what exactly is happening
[17:02:06] <Aero-Tec> yes
[17:02:14] <IchGuckLive> update to 2.5.3
[17:02:15] <Aero-Tec> can check and make sure
[17:02:20] <IchGuckLive> lathe has imprived
[17:02:22] <Aero-Tec> will check
[17:03:05] <JT-Shop> Aero-Tec: if you command Z to move, it should move in any plane y ou have selected

[17:04:34] <Aero-Tec> the code

[17:05:00] <IchGuckLive> G19 may iretate the interpreter as lathe =1 sets G19.2
[17:05:35] <Aero-Tec> lathe=1 is set in the INI
[17:05:45] <Aero-Tec> G19.2?
[17:05:50] <Aero-Tec> whats that for?

[17:06:38] <IchGuckLive> as lathe is fixed in iso

[17:59:19] <andypugh> You don't need setsserial for that, you need mesaflash
[17:59:28] <JT-Shop> might as well flash it with 7i77_7i76.bit so the second port can drive the stepper
[17:59:33] <andypugh> Err, no, wait. I am wrong
[17:59:37] <JT-Shop> mesaflash for the 5i25
[17:59:39] <JT-Shop> right?
[17:59:48] <andypugh> Yes
[17:59:49] <JT-Shop> which I must do first
[18:00:39] <JT-Shop> I'm at that stage now. mesaflash --device 5I25 --write 7i77_7i76.bit or do I need the path to the .bit file too

[18:08:12] <pcw_home> (well, any appropriate config)
[18:08:32] <JT-Shop> use fallback.bit?
[18:08:55] <pcw_home> the fallback config has no special I/O and blinks a red LED so you know its broken
[18:09:23] <JT-Shop> so I don't need to upgrade it?
[18:09:39] <pcw_home> the fallback config, no
[18:09:45] <JT-Shop> ok
[18:10:09] <pcw_home> also
[18:10:10] <pcw_home> sudo ./mesaflash etc etc

[18:58:43] <JT-Shop> was my guess

[18:59:12] <JT-Shop> but I've lost all pins that are hm2_5i25.0.7i77.0.0...
[18:59:20] <PCW> probablysserial_port_0=300xxx"
[18:59:30] <andypugh> Because the 7i77 is still in setup mode?

[19:00:21] <andypugh> I don't know off-hand which sserial port the 7i77 is on
[19:00:38] <andypugh> But I would have thought 0

[19:01:54] <PCW> sserial_port_0=30xxxx"
[19:02:21] <JT-Shop> it didn't like sserial_port_0=300xxx
[19:02:25] <PCW> since channel 0 needs to be in mode 3
[19:02:45] <PCW> and port 2 is not used
[19:03:02] <JT-Shop> I loaded the 7i77_7i76.bit file
[19:03:14] <JT-Shop> didn't like 30xxxx

[19:03:20] <JT-Shop> yes
[19:04:24] <JT-Shop> ok the pins are showing up now

[19:06:43] <JT-Shop> is there any indication that I'm in Mode 3?
[19:06:56] <PCW> I guess i cant remember the channel order either

[19:14:50] <JT-Shop> help
[19:16:03] <JT-Shop> gotta run now but when I get back I'll move the MPG to 16,17,18,19 and I guess it needs a software encoder?
[19:16:31] <PCW> No its a built in encoder counter
[19:17:26] <PCW> (16,17 are ENC-0 a,b, 18,19 are ENC-1 a,b)
[19:18:20] <PCW> the advantage is that it can count to 20 KHz or so just using the base thread
[19:18:43] <PCW> s/base thread/ 1 KHz servo thread/
[19:23:05] <JT-Shop> right now I have X connected to 7i77 encoder 0, Y to 1, Z to 2, spindle to 3 and MPG to 5
[19:23:36] <JT-Shop> so I need to move the axes and connect the MPG to encoder 0?
[19:27:05] <JT-Shop> the MPG is working correctly now...
[19:27:15] <PCW> no, its a differernt encoder
[19:27:24] <PCW> with 7i77 in the name
[19:29:50] <PCW> lot of steps :-(
[19:30:19] <JT-Shop> nothing showed up when I did show pin with 7i77 and encoder in the name
[19:30:22] <andypugh> There has to be a way to set sserial remote mode individually.
[19:30:52] <andypugh> If only the driver eriter wasn't so lazy
[19:31:00] <JT-Shop> lol
[19:31:49] <andypugh> If you use the sserial_remotes_by_serial_number option, then the sserial_mode_0=xxx string makes even less sense
[19:32:38] <andypugh> I should make it a parameter, and if the penalty is having to stop the card and restart, then that's not the worst thing in the world.
[19:32:47] <JT-Shop> none of it makes any sense to me
[19:33:04] <JT-Shop> so what does the 0000xxxx string mean?
[19:37:18] <JT-Shop> The sserial_port_0=0XXX configuration string sets some options for the smart serial daughter card. These options are specific for each daughter card. See the Mesa manual for more information on the exact usuage.
[19:37:28] <JT-Shop> ops a typo
[19:37:44] * JT-Shop looks in the Mesa manua
[19:37:45] <PCW> just verified here
[19:38:07] <JT-Shop> the sserial_0=?
[19:38:10] <PCW> sserial_port_0=300xxx
[19:38:32] <JT-Shop> ok let me try that
[19:38:38] -!- zzolo has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[19:39:59] <PCW> the encoders are on the field I/O (channel 0) so sserial channel 0 (the first number in the string) must be 3 to enable the encoders
[19:41:41] <JT-Shop> the config ran, but I don't see the extra encoders... I used the 7i77_7i76.bit file could that be a problem?
[19:41:51] <andypugh> A sserial port can have up to 8 remotes. You can have up to 8 ports (I think).
[19:42:03] <PCW> the are called enc0 and enc1
[19:42:36] <andypugh> So, sserial_mode_0=12345678 sets the mode for each remote on port 0, sserial_mode_1=12345678 sets the modes for the cards on port 2, and so on.

[19:44:01] <JT-Shop> do I need to use the 7i77x2.bit file?

[19:47:32] <PCW> If you look for them, they are at the bottom of the list of pins)
[19:48:35] <JT-Shop> just did a minimal run in master and 5i25.0.7i77.0.0.enc0 or enc1 are not there
[19:49:15] <andypugh> dmesg (in master) is meant to list all the sserial modes

[19:59:33] <PCW> thats the one on field I/O power
[20:01:34] <JT-Shop> power down the 7i77 and move 4 and 12 to right
[20:04:59] <JT-Shop> http://pastebin.com/GtqazMgw
[20:06:59] <PCW> and thats running master?
[20:07:12] <JT-Shop> can the problem be that I don't have master "installed" but only a RIP?
[20:07:49] <JT-Shop> if I run master while I try and do that I get an error that says turn off with halrun -U
[20:08:04] <JT-Shop> hmm I have an idea
[20:08:09] <PCW> RIP should be good as long as you launched the script in the same terminal tha you set the RIP environment in
[20:08:45] <PCW> also linuxcnc should not be running

[20:59:19] <mhaberler> that fails too with same error?
[21:00:16] <JT-Shop> the error from trying to update the 7i77 is insmod: error inserting '/usr/realtime-2.6.32-122-rtai/modules/linuxcnc/hostmot2.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module

[21:03:49] <mhaberler> hm, insmod reports a bad param as 'Unknown symbol' . still the same though
[21:04:31] <mhaberler> could it be some depmod step is missing so the wrong hostmot2.ko file is picked up?
[21:05:48] <JT-Shop> I got an error about libmodbus when running make
http://pastebin.com/pKNqkXxW
[21:06:04] <JT-Shop> so I did configure --without-libmodbus
[21:06:25] <PCW> I looks like there some magic that not done to load the RIP kernel modules
[21:06:32] <JT-Shop> because sudo apt-get install libmodbus-dev failed
[21:06:43] <mhaberler> you could apt-get install libmodbus3 and that should resolve the issue
[21:06:55] <JT-Shop> ok
[21:06:58] <mhaberler> but I dont think that has an impact, modbus is userland
[21:07:37] <PCW> So whats the magic about the RIP environment and has it changed?

[21:19:38] <mhaberler> urban dictionary example: Admin: I totally borked my machine installing Win XP SP2. Yes, that sounds about right.
[21:21:22] <JT-Shop> do an apt-get update?
[21:21:26] <mhaberler> sure
[21:22:41] <mhaberler> somehow this sounds like a mixup of a package install and a RIP install
[21:23:49] <JT-Shop> that worked
[21:24:09] <mhaberler> might have just been a wedged kernel
[21:25:03] <mhaberler> well, as Andy said - either install to user, or get rid of the packages and just do a RIP build - to make sure the right thing gets loaded
