I am running an ESS on a Syil X6 with a new, verified, xml file. The ESS shows good lights (1 green, 1 pulsing green). I have run with charge pump on and off with no change. It won't take any command. Any help would be appreciated.

I have communication with the board since all of the flashing lights are green. I set the ip to 10.9.9.9 on entry and in the smoothstepper plugin config. I set the ip of my machine at 10.9.9.1 with 255.255.255.0 mask. I just received a virgin xml from the last owner who showed me it worked before i moved it. And nothing. Attached is the xml. What do you suggest?

Let's assume I have everything downloaded and installed.I have a g540 which is working fine with a parallel cable. I have a SS which is blinking it's little red led heart out. Does someone have a xml file which would just let me jog the axes? No look out for or make sure you or anything else. Just a xml file. PLEASE

Modbus / intermittent interrupt on mpg pulse
« on: June 07, 2011, 01:45:12 PM »
I am using a pic for modbus communications and everything works except the mpg. I feed the tickcount and mpg1 count with the following interrupt code:

defs


   INTCON2bits.INTEDG1 = 0;  //Interrupt on falling edge (INT1)
     INTCON3bits.INT1IP = 1;   //INT1 External Interrupt Priority bit (Set to High)
     INTCON3bits.INT1IF = 0;   //Clear interrupt flag bit
     INTCON3bits.INT1IE = 1;   //Enable the INT1 external interrupt
 
   INTCON2bits.INTEDG2 = 0;  //Interrupt on falling edge (INT2)
     INTCON3bits.INT2IP = 1;   //INT2 External Interrupt Priority bit (Set to High)
     INTCON3bits.INT2IF = 0;   //Clear interrupt flag bit
     INTCON3bits.INT2IE = 1;   //Enable the INT2 external interrupt

     RCONbits.IPEN = 1;    //Enable priority levels on interrupts
    INTCONbits.GIEH = 1; // Enables all unmasked interrupts
   INTCONbits.GIEL = 1; // Enables all unmasked peripheral interrupts



then int code itself
void
handle_high_isr(
  void
) {

   if (INTCON3bits.INT1IF)
    {
      INTCON3bits.INT1IE = 0;
        mpg_count++;
      mpg_tickcount = (unsigned char) ReadTimer0();
      WriteTimer0( 0 );
       INTCON3bits.INT1IF = 0; // clear int flag
      INTCON3bits.INT1IE = 1;
    }

   if (INTCON3bits.INT2IF)
    {
      INTCON3bits.INT2IE = 0;
      mpg_count--;
      mpg_tickcount = (unsigned char) ReadTimer0();
      WriteTimer0( 0 );
       INTCON3bits.INT2IF = 0; // clear int flag
      INTCON3bits.INT2IE = 1;
    }
   // Handle any pending USB tasks
   USBDeviceTasks();
}

If I spin the mpg quickly it always just registers the last movement + or -. If I move it slowly it appears to register movement at random. It is always in the right direction but may not register no matter how slow.

Any ideas?

General Mach Discussion / Need to probe in mach turn
« on: April 14, 2010, 11:55:00 AM »
I would like to use a probe loaded in the chuck to set machine zero on my lathe. Is there a probing canned cycle in machturn?

When I remove the G53 everything is fine but I can't find where it says to include the G53 move to remove it. Also, the other wizard (other machine) has a different format. It lists in comments all of the setting and stuff where the other one doesn't.

General Mach Discussion / Move from tool changer when using wizards
« on: April 07, 2010, 10:59:14 AM »
I keep getting a move from the tool changer location to the start of a program whenever I use the wizards. I have two machines one doesn't give the move from the tool change location and the other one does. I can't see any difference in the config files. I am using the latest lockdown mach3. I have ignore tool change selected in the general config file. Any suggestions?

That got it. I didn't understand about the relays until now. Thanks

When I press the spindle on button in spindle calibration screen I get a momentary dwell light then nothing except the message to turn my spindle on. When I try to calibrate spindle in Mach3Mill it works fine.
