@dc42 Hi I'm just following up this issue with something that I noticed since updating to RRF3.01 RC5.

When I resume a job with an M24 command in an external trigger (T2) while running arc interpolated g-code, the spindle move to the last saved location and then veers off unusually as illustrated with the drawings in a previous post - at a right angle. I tried placing a M300 command to play a sound during trigger2 and noticed it would beep twice. If I use the on screen resume button and remove the M24 command form the external trigger this veering movement behaviour doesn't occur. Thought it was worth mentioning.

Relevant code in my config.g file:
M950 J6 C"!^exp.e2stop" ; Allocate GPIO Port 6 to pin 4
M581 P6 T1 C0 ; Pause - PIN4
M950 J7 C"!^exp.e3stop" ; Allocate GPIO Port 7 to pin 9
M581 P7 "e3stop" T2 C0 ; Trigger2.g - PIN9

In trigger2.g file:
M300 S300 P1000 ; Play sound
M24 ; Resume

My resume.g file:
M3 R0 ; Turn on PWM
M42 P0 S1 ; Turn on spindle enable
G4 P4000 ; Dwell
M291 P"STAND CLEAR! Job Resuming." R"Warning" S2 ; Display message and wait prompt

Ah thanks - will it ever likely be implemented?

I've included the following lines in my config file.

M950 P0 C"e0heat" ; Allocated GPOP Port 0 to Heater 1
M453 C"e1heat" Q300 R24000 ; Set to CNC mode, using Tool 1, 24000 Max RPM

and have updated my post processor in V-carve to include M42 P0 S1 next to the M3 S# command and M42 P0 S0 next to M5. So I can still use my machine.

But is there a way of switching additional pins alongside the one assigned to the M3/M5 command without editing the post processor? I'd like to control LED lights when g-code commands are executed, as a kind of safety traffic light system. Red for M3. Yellow for G1 G0 G2 G3 movements.

@Phaedrux That was definitely it. It moves way better. A bit more tweaking and its all good

@Asdasd1234 said in Is there a basic guide to set the duet up as a CNC:

Run macro that does:
-G10 L20 P2 X0 Y0 Z0
-G55

Alternatively, use P1 in the G10 command instead of P2, then you don't need the G55.

This is true... but... a lot of people like to leave G54 matching machine, because there the controller is always in some Work Coordinate System, and it just makes more sense for the human to have G54 match the physical layout of the device, G55 match the first fixture, G56 the second fixture and so forth.

Again, there is no "right or wrong" here... and some people do it a completely different way... the most common practice I've seen is leaving G54 alone (or, technically, G54 has a 0,0,0 offset to G53).

@jens55 so it just happened again and this is whats on the console right after:
In a yellow highlighted bar; Warning: Controller has been reset
In blue high lighted bar;Cancelled printing dile0:/gcodes/Pocket 1.gcode, print time was 0h 6min

I think It would be a good idea if a Duet3 CNC oriented board came out. RRF is great, and very easy to use, but as mentioned before all the boards are very 3D printer oriented.
I would like to have a Duet3 without drivers, thermistor inputs and heater outputs and instead have dir/step outputs and ethercat for the use of industrial servos. Another missing feature is an encoder input for a spindle, needed to do hard threading, and an addon board with isolated inputs and outputs needed for a CNC. Also an MPG input.
Software side, there are no fixed cycles (for now at least), which is not very necessary for a mill (or a router), except for drilling cycles, but it is really used on lathes, also tool radius compensation is needed for a lathe. Otherwise, everything needs to be done on CAM.

@Danal No theres no G2/G3 arc moves. Ive been running fake cuts this morning and it seems to be reacting perfectly. Thank you for your help and patients. Cant wait to make this thing work.

@Phaedrux
Thats a good point, I will do that

@jens55 just looking at the manual for the VFD and yes the SPH, SPM and SPL are high medium and low speeds

It is possible to tell RRF a transformation matrix (M669), so transforming the machine coordinate system to match the workpiece could be done with some conditional G code. I think you would need variables though, and those are not supported yet.

@Phaedrux Thank you this is awesome info

Hi there!!
I was gone for a while on that proyect but i´m back again.
Has anyone tried to make this setup work so far?
I would love some help in therms of what kind of program could i use to decide where to engrave and where not, and if duet wifi can be used for that purpouse for sure. Also, i would love to know if i´ll have some help from the developers if any modification on the firmware would be needed,.
I was also thinking on using that sistem on a 5 axis cnc milling machine.
The 0 of both machines the need to be preconfigured so we can mill and then engrave in one go without loosing any reference.
Thanks

Okay, i will do that. School closed at 2pm and Midwinter break starts tomorrow, so I'll report back in a week. Thank you so much.

Fantastic ! Reach out (start a new thread) when you get back.

@jay_s_uk yes I think that’s the way I’m definitely leaning

@dc42 wow, thats a good thing to know. As I understand when I open the valve, I can just after few second use same comand with half of power just to keep everything open. Amazing 🙂

@FelixH said in PanelDue and WorkBee Controler:

I do have a Workbee with a PanelDue attached to it. You don't have to do anything special about it. However I wish the PanelDue would have a CNC mode, since all the environment is 3D Printer oriented.

What would be the differences in CNC mode? Obviously you wouldn't need the extrusion facility or the temperatures; but what would you want in their place?

well, on a cnc mode I don't need to monitor temperatures, for example. So this little screen space could be saved. I would like to see a nice jogging interface to move the tool (something similar to that on pronterface), build-in macros to change WCS... it is not much but it would be a world of a difference. Now, everytime I have to jog the tool I have to go to a sub-menu and the buttons are not very intuitive. I have to think about it a little bit more, because I haven't used the CNC for a couple of weeks now and it is not on the top of my stack...

@bearer im a mechanical engineer.... not a software engineer ..... looks like french....

Your clipboard can copy and paste french just fine. Open your ooznest post, find onClose and insert the two lines I posted. That would most likely as the stop code you're missing.
