I had a weird thing happen for the second time on my mill
using LinuxCNC 2.8 and Axis.
I was having issues with my keyboard due to a bad DIN-5 to
PS/2 adapter, causing the keyboard/BIOS to lose a lot of
key-up events. I was doing some semi-manual machining,
going back and forth between MDI, jog (arrow) keys and the
jog pendant. The lost key-up events were causing the
machine to keep moving when I released the arrow keys, which
alerted me to the problem. But, then. LinuxCNC got into a
funny mode where the jog keys ran at maximum axis speed.
Changing the feed override, jog speed or max axis speed had
no effect! The only way to get back to proper jog speed was
to restart LinuxCNC.
Does Axis have a jog key modifier, where if you hold shift
or something, it jogs faster? I did not think to try
clicking shift to see if it would reset this state.
Anyway, I have fixed that bad adapter and all is back to
normal, but it was a few moments of "What the Hell is it
doing?".
Thanks,
Jon
