KMotion CNC Program Exit

Tom,
When we close KMotion CNC we would like to clear various output bits to disable the main drive contactor and disable the servo drives so that the machine is left safe.
Is there an on exit function or can we add code around the program close message box.

Manual entry (MDI)

Tom,
Is there a way to clear the manual entry list so that I only have the G code moves for testing a paticular operation of the 8 axis machine i am testing to reduce tge chance of moving the wrong axis ?

Kogna Reset output pin

Tom,
I might have missed the documentation regarding the functionality of the Kogna Reset pin output.
I assume it remains at logic level low until the Kogna is booted and ready to connect ?
The intention is to drive an ssr which is in series with the drives / enable hardware.
Regards,
Tim

Re: 8 axis KMotion CNC Screen & commercial help

Tom, I will hopefully post video tomorrow of the original machines we manufactured 17 years ago and have run most days. After more thinking and experimentation I think the standard 6 axis screen will work with the 6 linear axis and a C program called by an M code will move the 2 rotary axis. I assum...

KMotion CNC 5.3.3

Kogna running KMotion CNC 5.3.3 Same init & mot files as runs on 435f no problem. Only running 1 axis as KFlop (which is now at a different location) is used to test drives and motors. G code program runs motor as expected. Problem is only 1 jog button works on initial KMotion launch, other directio...

Tom, Can you please check 4.35d Kmotion CNC kinematics .txt works with a varying pivot to chuck length entry. I have just run the attached program that should keep the tool tip at a constant zero position. If i change the pivot to chuck length entry in the kinematics.txt file attached it does not ma...

Open Loop Tuning

Tom, I thought i understood your reply to this question but i obvously do not. With the machine motion control issues i want to check the velocity response of the axes and go back to the beginning. I have attached the configuration for the Y axis. I have attached the step response configured how i t...
