Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540

[MaynardC]

Hi Art,

I'm getting some strange behavior when I open the new version (1.45). Installs as usual, but when I start it, it hangs after the sliding splash screen. Auggie icon is in the task bar. Auggie gui doesn't load. If you ckick on the Auggie Icon in the taskbar, the Auggie Gui appears(after a delay), but the components are all scrambled about. If you change screens(default for example), that loads fine,and if you switch back to the Pockeys screen, that works fine (and seems to work fine in simulation). I opened the log file, but seems to be some sort of infinite loop thing, as the log file crashes my text editor. Couldn't copy and paste from the editor,as it was hanging, so took following screenshot of the file. Happen all over again, on each Auggie startup. I tried rolling back one version, and it still happened ???

Maynard:

  Sorry about that, I probably hosed the simulator, Ill check it right way and let you know..
it looks like your going into simulation and its crashing it or looping it.

(I take it this IS without a Pokeys? )

Thx
Art

Maynard:

  Just uploaded a version with the simulator incapable of generating that error.

Give it another shot. If it fails, try removing your script folder just in case,
Ive tested the one I released on 2 machines with no pokeys and both worked fine,
I'm suspecting maybe I changed something in the script interface perhaps..

Thx

I was in simulation, but also hung with Pokeys, but with slightly different behavior.
Tried new version, but same results.

Removed script directory and loads fine. Jogs a stepper connected with Pokeys using the PokeysMotion screen. I have a bunch of custom scripts. Perhaps you've changed some API's along the way. I haven't updated Auggie for a few weeks, so it could go back a bit.

Thanks

Maynard:

Some of the API's did change and they may be causing a loop. When you get a chance, see if you can figure out which one it is and send me the library..I can probably stop the loop..

Thx

I added the folders back to the script folder one by one, starting with default Auggie libraries, than onto my custom libs. Ran fine at each step, and now loads fine back at the original state. Sorry to interrupt this thread, but all seems fine now.

No sweat:

  It may be it simply was resetting to some new defaults. Ive been adding many fixes and reliability updates as I use it and find things that annoy or don't work.

Hi art M30 is still not working the log does not show anything, I ran with the scripter open it comes up that it is blocked.

I ran it with a couple different G codes

[ArtF]

Hi Dan:

  Thx, Ill keep trying to find out why, M30 works here with no problem.

  Im curious, if you put a line after the m30 , does it get executed?

Art

[DanL]

yer I tried that M5 then M30 no different even had M5 go to the Axis zeros then M30. it stop's 3 lines before M30. new profile as well.  I have to have a sit down with the machine and see if I can find it my end, but I have a router to go fix some one did not watch where they where walking

[ArtF]

Dan:

  Are you sure it updated to 1.45? It did used to stop 3 lines before the m30..

Art

[DanL]

yep just checked I will do a uninstall and reinstall see if that helps

[DanL]

reinstall did not help
 

[ArtF]

Dan:

Never does.. Nothing I write usually needs a uninstall..

hmm, ok, Ill run some tests to see if I can see why. Anythign special in the
program or does any sequence ending in M30 just fail to rewind?
