Motor movement during reset of axes

I've noticed in the past that during occasional operations that shouldn't cause any motor movement, I would hear my steppers make a slight noise like a movement or like they just locked into place. In particular it would happen when I would perform an Axis.Reset() through the dotnet libraries. I did...

Re: Send string argument to KFlop C program

Thank you for the pointer, Tom. I'll look into using the gather buffer for this.

Send string argument to KFlop C program

I am planning to save the current backlash amount & direction to disk for persistence. My plan involves using a KFlop thread to run the C program(s) that save and load the values to disk. However, I'd like to determine the location of that file from my vb.net application if possible. Since the deter...

Backlash amount/direction variable type and persistence...

I'm currently using persist variables to move backlash amount and direction variables about my code for various reasons (such as being able to keep BL amount and direction after an axis has been .enabled and when my app is started and stopped. My code appears to be working but I'd like some clarity ...

Re: G92 set and reset options

After exploring this a bit, I've decided that it makes more sense (for me) to utilize G52 codes instead of G92 as it is easier to reset from a GCode standpoint. Thank you.

Re: TCC67 compiler output messages

Well, I gave it a shot, but even after finding the proper Windows SDK for the KMotion compiles, I'd need to add too many "vs 2015" things to my development machine to get that recompile to work with the fix you attached. I recall having a lot of issue moving from 2015 to 2019 vs.net at one point and...

TCC67 compiler output messages

When using the coff compiler method in dotnet, is there a method of obtaining the error message specifics? The result variable contains a generic "failed to compile" message but never the specifics of the error such as are given by the KMotion CCode module.

Re: TCC compiler issues

I have had the opportunity to test on different Windows 10 machines. My dotnet code and kflop compiler run fine on two other machines, but continue to have these 'compiler failure' issues on my main development machine. Since this is my primary machine and the issue has begun relatively recently, I ...

Re: TCC compiler issues

The "compiler vanishing" issue continues to mystify. Here are the results of my newest tests for keeping this thread current.... I set up a minimal Vb.net application that does the minimum necessary to cause the issue. This should rule out anything in my more complex app from being the issue. I've a...

Re: TCC compiler issues

Tom, It looks like you were correct about the bad LED. I pressed on it gently and it went out. slight pressure and it comes back on. A few times and now it won't come back on at all. Other than that the board seems to be fine. Although the flickering had such a patters to it that I would have sworn ...
