Cant get threading going in Linuxcnc

[John11668]

I see that you have also posted on the linuxcnc forum.

Once you have used stepconf then you have to hand edit the files as stepconf will overwrite them

The zipped up file I posted is my working config (I think you have a different tool changer) to view the file you have have to rename it by removing the "txt" from the end and then unzip it.

As have been asked on the other forum it would help to post your hal and ini files

Hi Clive and thanks for your input.
When I first asked the question on both forums , I was unaware that the same faces would respond on both. Sorry if this causes a problem . maybe we just need to establish which is the best platform to carry on..

My toolchanger at this stage is a pair of hands , which are prompted to act by an onscreen message.

I will try to insert your configuration into axis but have to say that I am not familiar with axis . So Please excuse me if I have to come back with another query.
I will try to send a zipped up set of all my current config files , but it may take me a while as I am quite committed over the next couple of days .
Shall I do it here or "over there "

I am not expecting miracles from this machine . It is really just a learning platform for me , but if I could get to the stage where I can make a few small shoulder bolts in both metric and imperial, it would then go into the corner of the workshop , while I hopefully move on.

John. There are more people that use Linuxcnc on the other forum Andy Pugh on there is very knowledgeable.

You have to remember that none of us have crystal balls (get ready for the pun)

In other words how can anybody help without pictures and the config files.

I see that you have put some of them on the other forum but they are not complete ie the INI file is missing.
