Did you work this out? Just trying to setup plasma as the example in the IHS on openbuilds cam does not work.... had to change to G38.2 as discussed above (the G32.2 in the example on the cam doesnt work) but next it does not like: G10 P2 L1 Z0 (GRBL Error: error 20: Unsupported or invalid gcode command found in block G10 P2 L1 Z0) Could i please get a full working IHS sample/example code please to use, thx
G10 L20: G Codes G38 G Codes Grbl list of supported Gcodes:gnea/grbl (about halfway down the page) You need to play with what you want, your machine, to do. The exact sequence of events you want Use the serial console and develop your own
Ok, here is some working code for IHS that works for me so no one else has to re-invent the wheel and learn gcode probing .... not sure if correct but works really well for me What it does Line1 Lifts Z to 5mm Line2 Probes Z down slowly until it touches the material and your probe switch on the floating head Line3 Sets Z as Zero at this spot Line4 (Change the 8.21 to suit your offset) Lifts Z to cut height... that gets me to 2mm above the material for a Cigweld Cutskill 45 Plasma in my case Line5 Sets your new Z Zero G0 Z5 G38.2 Z-30 F100 G10 L20 P1 Z0 G1 Z8.21 F1000 G10 L20 P1 Z0 Paste code into the IHS box under Settigns in openbulds CAM Make sure you tick "Use IHS" under the advanced toggle of each plasma tool path you create in the Open Builds CAM Tip: Create a GCode Macro in the Openbuilds Control to get your probe offset right, just paste in the code and fiddle with the Z8.21 until its right for you to get your desired cut height
(; give a man a fish, versus teach a man to fish (; - what you learned is power no one can take away from you now! Good tip, Macros are awesome! Could also use the Gcode editor tab, and "run the job" Spot on! Thanks for sharing
