Unless homing is setup incorrectly... or you forgot to zero in the right spot, hover over DROs to see machine coordinates
I was finally able to get it to work correctly. Seems I for got to Zero the DRO's on X and Y. The Probing of Z worked great, the only problem I ran into was that I forgot once again to GoToZero X,Y and Z.
version.300 Linux Appimage is acting badly. On launch in Ubuntu (with Budgie Desktop Environment) the logo is HUGE and obscures everything else on the screen. Can't see the application at all.
Hi everyone. I'm already in process of building LEAD 1515 machine and my Windows laptop has died completly. I consider buying a new Apple macbook with new generation processor - M1 I need to know if LEAD 1515 software will be compatibly with new Macbooks. Does OpenBuilds software for LEAD 1515 work well on new Macbooks?
It supports Mac Sur, but we have to move to Electron 11 for M1 support. Estimated time frame in the next month or so, it is on the todo - but has some depencency work first: See Apple Silicon Support | Electron Blog
Icons are controlled by the window manager / Electron builder. Its not directly in our control. Nor does it affect our default Ubuntu 20.04 LTS test bed at this time, so cannot replicate. Re: Previous version: No changes to package.json's icons sections, nor the Icon files OpenBuilds/OpenBuilds-CONTROL in over 2 years - you are welcome to bisect the commit log OpenBuilds/OpenBuilds-CONTROL if you can find a specific commit to blame, but don't recall any changes to icons. Pull requests accepted too: OpenBuilds/OpenBuilds-CONTROL if you find a build config issue, or other cause to address. Also see Icons - electron-builder
Hmm. Odd. Is it something new with a newer electron version? Works fine on my Rpi4 btw. Also - great work. This is awesome software.
We (kinda have to) keep relatively up to date with electron versions to get successful compiles. They may have changed something, but if so the docs doesnt say. Electron builder creates the icons from the icon.icns file automatically
Where did you find the icon file to resize. I searched, found a png file but it is only for the icon... ??
I wrote a little script that I run when needed Code: #!/bin/sh cd /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps sudo convert openbuildscontrol.png -resize 32x32 openbuildscontrol.png You may need to install the 'convert' tool and the icon may be in a slightly different path since my machine is using Xfce.
300 is hanging a for me. I have to kill it and re-start it. The menu item on the icon to quit it works. Haven't worked out what's causing it yet. Ubuntu 20.04.
Will the mobile jog widget work on Bluetooth or does it have to be on WiFi? I don't have WiFi on my machine and I update Control over a Thumb drive.
Also, in the wizard I can flash a version for Arduino Nano with the Door switch NC. Since there is no WiFi on my CNC I have to load it through a USB drive. How do I download the correct version to update my CNC? Will it be in the normal download with the option to choose then? It's been a long time since I installed it and I don't remember.
No, bluetooth cannot serve webpages... Very different technology. Spend the $10 (cable, usb wifi adapter, repeater or whatever is missing) and get the PC on the network...
Not as simple as that. The mini PC that I use is on Windows 10 and I've read that many users complain that when Windows updated the unit stopped working properly and you can't turn Windows update of so I rather not hook it up to the WiFi. What about my other question, to download a version for Arduino Nano with the Door switch NC already formatted.
Firmware updates do not need internet access You can disable win10 updates win10 disable updates - Google Search, but that aside (updates are good) that advice sounds suspect unless the mini pc is of some very dubious source, in which case, plenty of cheap or even free PCs on craiglist to replace it with
Thanks, that was helpful, I now have it disabled and was able to update Control to 'Arduino Nano with Door switch NC'. Now, when I start Control and connect to the Arduino, I get the 'MSG: Check Door' even though the door is closed and it repeats itself every few second and I can't do anything with Control. I know it's closed because when I open it that message appears rapidly many times a second for ever until I close the door. When I close the door it returns to the every few seconds interval and I still can't do anything and every few messages I get the FEEDHOLD warning and another message as can be seen in the attached picture. Also, as can be seen, the door is closed. I have connected the Door switch to the Hold pin, as I saw mentioned a few places. Is that the correct pin or not?
use the troubleshooting tab to check your wiring. Make sure you understand the logic (triggered = door open) Dont forget to use quality switches like our Xtension switches (which are NO by the way) with filtering
Now that you've mentioned it I realized I forgot to put the filter on that switch. I had it on the limit switches. I'll put the filter on it and we'll see if it fixes it. While at it, I wonder if I should also put filters on the probe and spindle control output pins or are they not needed there?
A few hours after I posted the question it occurred to me that the Probe is input and needs filter and the spindle is output and doesn't need. I installed the filters and now it runs with no errors. I opened the door and expected the Z axis to go up but it didn't. On the other hand, after I closed the door, I pressed the run button twice and the program continued from where it stopped. I didn't expect that but I like it.
Thanks Peter. I looked at the code and it says '#define PARKING_TARGET -5.0 // Parking axis target'. It kind of surprised me since a - indicates on the Z axis to go down and not up.
