Title: Brian Barker: Can you make JCode 6 axis... P L E A S E
Post by: ScrappyScooter on December 06, 2008, 04:29:42 PM

I have a 6 axis machine (robot).
I'm using the 6 axis screen set.
I beg of you to make JCode record all six axis.

poppabear's plug-in costs 4 times as much as Mach.
I could still use a 6 axis teach.
It seems like a macro can do the trick.
Can someone help?

Possibly you could ask in the VB area of the forum?

Maybe you could even download the information to make this plug-in yourself from the Mach 3 Downloads page?

Good luck-  :)

Budman,

I DID IT! 6 axis teach.

I'm using the CInt because I'm making a robot and don't need floating point precision.
I'm working on adding a comment.
Then I need to make a random playback script. I have a good start on the random but the comment is puzzling me.

I've really enjoyed making the script. Thanks for the suggestion.


My frist script:
X = CInt (GetDRO (0))
Y = CInt (GetDRO (1))
Z = CInt (GetDRO (2))
A = CInt (GetDRO (3))
B = CInt (GetDRO (4))
C = CInt (GetDRO (5))
AppendTeachFile "teach.tap"
Code "X" & X & " Y" & Y & " Z" & Z & " A" & A & " B" & B & " C" & C
call LoadTeachFile()

That's GREAT Scrappy !
I sure could use this with a pick n place part loader for my little lathe.
Congrats.,
RC

Excellent, Scrappy! Glad you can make that work for you.

This stuff is way above me but I've seen some users that can really make a go of this scripting language and it's good to see -  :)

Dude,

I've figured out how to add comment:

X = CInt (GetDRO (0))
Y = CInt (GetDRO (1))
Z = CInt (GetDRO (2))
A = CInt (GetDRO (3))
B = CInt (GetDRO (4))
C = CInt (GetDRO (5))
Com = InputBox ("Add Comment")
AppendTeachFile "teach.tap"
Code "X" & X & " Y" & Y & " Z" & Z & " A" & A & " B" & B & " C" & C & "  //" & Com
call LoadTeachFile()

Hi, Scrappy

Have a servo driven small robotic arm I'm converting to step & direction and Mach3, Did you get your View screen situation worked out.

Chip,

I have not gotten back to that problem yet.
The problem may be that I'm doing all of my scripting research/testing on a laptop on the couch.
When I get it all figured out, I'll port it to the robot in the basement.

I've got the random looping figured out. I have to now make each loop triggerable.
My robot is a Ping Pong ball machine. I have all of the mechanics built. It has 6 motors going.
I just have to get the scripting done.

Pardon my ignorance...but...
What is a Ping Pong Machine??

Kudos on the script!

It's a ball machine that 'pitches' balls to you so that you can practice your strokes.
I'm adding automation/programing to one that already exists http://www.newgy.com/Products/RoboPong540.asp
I will be able to change/control spin, speed, placement, and machine position behind the table.
I should be done with it any year now.
