Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
it should go in the scripts library under Gcode then SpindleLib-RelayOnly it should be checked and the Gcode should be checked.
I think the 45,1 in the SpindleOn function should be 45,0 from the notes.

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
thanks glen it's probable that is what is wrong going by art's not the code should be correct I just put it in the wrong place
thank you
thank you
Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
Art I have run into a problem, with glens help and me not reading what you said as do in that library,my bad I have done another library for the superpid just using the code out of the spindle relay only, and putting the changes what you said to do in it, I compile it comes up with no issues then I run it no problem's then when I go to check it back in it comes up with, no cntr Selected to update.
here is what I did
here is what I did
Code: Select all
// Library SpindleLib-RelayOnly
// Created Friday, January 22, 2016
// Author Art
// number of the OC "Open Collector output"
//on the pokeys that will trip a relay
//for spindle ON/OFF
global MySpindleOutput = 1;
global SpindleDevice = Motion();
//this is a relay spindle control,
//it will use only the OC output #1
//to control a relay to turn a simple
//on/off spindle, on or off.
global SpindleOn = function()
{
SpindleDevice.SetPinDig( 45, 1);
//SpindleDevice.SetOC( MySpindleOutput, 1); //turn on spindle
print("Relay Spindle was turned on with OC#" + MySpindleOutput);
};
//this is a relay spindle control,
//it will use only the OC output #1
//to control a relay to turn a simple
//on/off spindle, on or off.
global SpindleOff = function()
{
SpindleDevice.SetPinDig( 45, 0);
//SpindleDevice.SetOC( MySpindleOutput, 0); //turn on spindle
print("Relay Spindle was turned off");
print("using OC #" + MySpindleOutput);
};
//this is a relay spindle control,
//it has no speed control but this dummy
//routine will stop any error, and maybe
//test for zero speed.
global SpindleSpeed = function( speed )
{
//if an S000 is set, then turn the thing off
if( speed == 0 )
{
SpindleDevice.SetPinDig( 45, 1);
//SpindleDevice.SetOC( MySpindleOutput, 0); //turn on spindle
print("Relay Spindle was turned off");
};
};
Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
Did you use the "Lib" dialog box to check the script back in with. If you check it out with the Lib, you need to check in back in with the "Lib" dialog. Same with the the debugger checkout.

Dan:
You can check in a library only if its a complete library file, it must have the name header and such in it. So
create a new library first, then check it out. Modify it with your code, and then check it in .
I cant find a message "no cntr Selected to update" in the program, can you check and see exactly what the message
is and Ill tell you why it occurs. It sounds as if your very close but are missing some syntax or routine, let
me know what youre getting and we'll trace it. Ill be away this morning, but this afternoon Ill write a description
of what may be happening..
Thx

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
It's what you get if you open a library in the scriptor, and try to check it back in via the check box on the scripting toolbar. :)
Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
Yes I had noticed that too if I used one of the three buttons.
But the place to check them back in is under the Library button, same dialog screen you checked them out with.

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
Ahh yes, I see.
There are 2 classes of scripts. Screen Scripts, and Library scripts. You check in the library scripts by using the LIB
button only. Ill explain that better in a future video. :)

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
that was the problem thank you gents, now to see if it works.

it's still not working it does not come up with any error.

Dan:
Does it say in the log and on the toolpath screen
"Spindle was Turned on"
and
"Spindle was turned off" ??
Lets go from there...

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
Dan:
The Docs for the SuperPID seem to show it needs an opencollector drain to turn it on ..
Pin 45 may not be suitable. Id use either the relay.. OR OC1, just as the default spindle was set up for.
Youd connect your RUN wire from the super PID just to OC1 on the board. This also means youd see the LED to show
if its on or off...

Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
OK I will try that
Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
it worked
Re: getting the 57cnc to work with G540
it turn's on or off, but run's at full noise.
now for the pwm control on pin 20 pwm 2 do I put the changes into the Library MotionIO at the bottom it has Pokeys1.SetPWM( channel, duty); so channel will be 2 duty not sure.
and Pokeys1.SetPWM( period ); period would be 20ms
I got 20 from the pokeys config if I set 20ms in the pwm bit it has that it is 50.00 Hz
I will try this anyway and take a guess at what duty should be
