Safe Jog is good, but Safe G0 could be a must

Postby sebmay » Sun Aug 27, 2017 11:29 am

Hello happy taxpayers,

Because i am not God, and sometime i program stupid things, i nearly broke my 3D touch probe many times, during inappropriate G0 movements.

I could be very helpful to have a Gcode switching On/Off a new feature : Stop Execution of gcode if the touch probe is hit while traveling with G0.

That one could not interfere with any other UCCNC feature.

Have some good days,

Sebastien

I don't understand why this would be a useful feature?
I mean you can run the axes the same fast with G1 and G2 and G3, just have to have the Feedrate high enough and then you have the same feedrate as with G0.
So, making a feature just for G0 does not makes much sense to me.

And there is a feature in the UCCNC already which stops the machine axes if the probe is hit, it is called the Safe probe mode and you can activate it with M213 and deactivate with M214.

I was not clear : when using G1, g2 or G3, the spindle is on and there is a milling bit or a drill.

Only G0 are used when probing, with the 3D probe in the spindle.

Only in those case, i have some trouble traveling to the stock to probe an altitude reference, then probing a fixed sensor on the cnc table.

I will examine the suggested macro. I do not remember i read something on those specific instruction. I could incorporate this code in my M6 generator.

I'll take a look tomorrow.
Thanks for your help,
Sebastien

You can not do probing with G0. It is simply too fast, so it will crash your probe if you do it. Use G31.

dear a_camera,

I use G31, but i use G0 to go from the stock to the fixed probe point and vice-versa.
