Poking and prodding with the lathe, I turned on debugging to 0x7fffffff
and ran it, and I note in the terminal a couple things that look odd,
but I don't have a working lathe to compare it to, so I'll paste them
here.
task: machine: 'The Little Monster' version 'unknown'
emcTaskOnce: Python plugin configured
emcTaskOnce: extract(task_instance): KeyError: ('task',)
emcTaskOnce: no Python Task() instance available, using default
iocontrol-based task methods
emcTrajSetJoints(2) returned 0
emcTrajSetAxes(3, 5)
The config does have a LATHE=1 in the display section.
And only XZ are specified anyplace.
gene@lathe:~/linuxcnc/configs/my_LinuxCNC_machine2$ grep -i xz
my_LinuxCNC_machine2.ini
GEOMETRY = XZ
JOG_AXES = XZ
COORDINATES = XZ
KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=XZ
What does the above tell us? Line by line please.
Thanks all.
Cheers, Gene Heskett
