Re: [Emc-users] integrator manual
Strange. Please try the following: 1. Uncomment the code in HAL, so that you can start LinuxCNC. 2. While it is running (you don't need to load a file or move the axes or anything) fire up a terminal (usually Ctrl+Shift+T) and paste the following command (without the $ at the beginning): $ halcmd list pin | sed 's/ /\n/g' halpins.txt 3. Hit return to execute the command. It is normal if you do not see anything happening. 4. The current directory (most likely /home/username/) now contains a file called 'halpins.txt'. Throw this on pastebin and post the link here. Explanation: The command reads all available pins from the HAL environment and stores the list in the file halpins.txt in the current directory. The sed magic is just there to replace the spaces by newlines, so we get a more readable list. The created file should look something like this: axis.0.active axis.0.amp-enable-out axis.0.amp-fault-in axis.0.backlash-corr axis.0.backlash-filt axis.0.backlash-vel axis.0.coarse-pos-cmd axis.0.error ... The list should be quite lengthy, it generates over 500 lines when running the axis simulation example.

While it is running (you don't need to load a file or move the axes or anything) fire up a terminal (usually Ctrl+Shift+T) and paste the following command (without the $ at the beginning): $ halcmd list pin | sed 's/ /\n/g' halpins.txt 3. Hit return to execute the command. It is normal if you do not see anything happening. 4. The current directory (most likely /home/username/) now contains a file called 'halpins.txt'. Throw this on pastebin and post the link here. Explanation: The command reads all available pins from the HAL environment and stores the list in the file halpins.txt in the current directory. The sed magic is just there to replace the spaces by newlines, so we get a more readable list. The created file should look something like this: axis.0.active axis.0.amp-enable-out axis.0.amp-fault-in axis.0.backlash-corr axis.0.backlash-filt axis.0.backlash-vel axis.0.coarse-pos-cmd axis.0.error ... The list should be quite lengthy, it generates over 500 lines when running the axis simulation example.

Either all switches are wired n.c. and in series, or all wired n.o. and in parallel. lcnc contains logic that will not move anything if any of the switches is already tripped when you hit ctrl+home. You must have the statement in the .ini file for each axis HOME_IS_SHARED = true, and HOME_SEQUENCE 0|1|2|3 (one of each sets the homing sequence starting with 0) which brings that logic into play.

[Emc-users] integrator manual
want to address to those who put together --integrator manual--I M i search in it for home homing - and I M provides only separate blocks and never show main plan - skeleton to where need to add those building blocks. I M does not shows any working sample - like for homing -- as an example from previous model --emc2-- 2.2.5 maybe one will say that will be OK and copy/past and problem solved. problem solved was not on agenda it is web based manual no paper will be wasted – many publisher afraid that. -- Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?

Can all please take note: the Integrators (pdf) manual link on the main linuxcnc.org website is out of date. The latest manual is at linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/.

Re: [Emc-users] Integrator manual
Hi Rudy, the problem is that the devel documentation refers to the next version of emc2 (2.4.x, soon to be released). We will point the default documentation to the 2.4 docs, once the release has happened.
