I have a couple EMC2 systems using the Ubuntu 6.06 build from some time ago, with updated EMC on them. I recently wanted to check the latency numbers, and ran into this when I tried to run latency-test :
./latency-test: line 136: halrun: command not found After some poking around, it seem the last line of latency-test is halrun lat.hal And the file lat.hal dosn't exist. So, for some reason, latency-test doesn't seem to be creating this file. Any ideas? Two systems with roughly the same history do the same thing. -------------------- second thing .... I was machining something yesterday, and right after starting up EMC, I couldn't set the X coordinates with the Axis "touch off" button. It seemed like it had a 10.00" offset between where I was and where zero was. The day before a program I had run left a 10.00 in variable #1. I thought all the variables under 1000 were available to the user. (The example at 13.2 in the user's manual uses #1 in a loop construct.) I think I got it to go back to normal with an MDI command like #1=0.0, but I was stumbling around and in a hurry, so I didn't document what was going on as well as I should have. ----------------- 3rd thing : The EMC2 system that runs my Bridgeport is current as of a couple months ago, and I've been having a LOT of problems with "stuck" jog keys. I've had this happen several times in a couple hours - lucky to not have had a crash yet. I suppose it really COULD be a bad keyboard, but usually hitting the jog key again resets it. This seems to be the old missed key-up message thing we've had for some time. I think some other users have reported this same behavior, but it isn't totally clear it is the same thing I'm seeing. Anybody else see this from time to time?
