Well it would be good to have all of those options if possible please.

Re: 3d edge finder
Update: Yesterday i changed back to V1 !old! version of PlanetCNC Software.
Now milling works perfekt with edgefinder. But one question:
My touchneedle is at the moment diameter 6mm.
If i set "Größe"??? or "thickness" to 6mm tooloutside is equal to workpeace in x and y.
Should it be not in the middle of 6mm tool?

Re: 3d edge finder
Thanks for files. Angle finder file reports "ERROR IN GCODE: left bracket missing after unary operation"
Centre finder file runs OK.

Re: 3d edge finder
Error is wrong. Problem is that ATAN2 fails when software tries to draw this g-code to 3D display. Points are not really probed and are all zeroes.
This is workaround:
o<100> if [[#<py2> NE #<py1>] OR [#<px2> NE #<px1>]]
#<ang1> = [ATAN2[[#<py2>-#<py1>],[#<px2>-#<px1>]]]
(print,Angle: #<ang1>)
o<100> endif

Re: 3d edge finder
I do not pretend to understand this. Do not know about your normal customer base, but they must be many levels above me.
Where do I post this workaround code?

Re: 3d edge finder
In script that measures angle.
Perhaps it is best that you wait for next version if you don't want to edit scripts yourself. Measure scripts will be included and fully tested.

Re: 3d edge finder
Did not say do not want to, simply asked how to,
But no worries I will revert the new machine to Mach 3 with Gerry`s 2010 screenset. That will give me everything I need.
I will revisit Planet CNC in 3/6 months? When is ready.

Re: 3d edge finder
Or you go back to V1? I did it and everything works. I`m sad cause of the problems with TNG but i`m sure i`m go back to TNG when final version is running so easy like old version.

Re: 3d edge finder
@Eatonbrayer:
In UD7 script replace this:
#<ang1> = [ATAN2[[#<py2>-#<py1>],[#<px2>-#<px1>]]](print,Angle: #<ang1>)
with
this:
o<100> if [[#<py2> NE #<py1>] OR [#<px2> NE #<px1>]]
#<ang1> = [ATAN2[[#<py2>-#<py1>],[#<px2>-#<px1>]]]
(print,Angle: #<ang1>)
o<100> endif

Re: 3d edge finder
Thank you! It is now working.

Re: 3d edge finder
Now i made steps like manual too.
But if i messure center, mashine move till contact material left, move back to startposition, move till contact material right and move with g00 different distance.
then when not crashed to endswitch, same in y direction. Move till contact y-, move to startposition, move till contact y+ and with goo y+ different distance.
So if i probe a real material, my probesensor will be broke.
If i use Messure Angle, mashine moves y+ till contact material twice and brake with error:
left bracket missing after unary operation
Line: #<ang1> = [ATAN2[[#<py2>-#<py1>],[#<px2>-#<px1>]]]
How to probe Workpeace position (Workpeacezero XY) in x+ and y+ direction?

Re: 3d edge finder
Having stated "Working" I retract that statement. I too would not use it with my probe.
I fortunately have another machine with Mach3 and 2010 screenset. Works like a dream.
Lets wait for TNG software to be completed. Make sure we have lots of candles for several birthday cakes!!!!!

Re: 3d edge finder
I think it's a pity that it takes so long until the TNG is completed and the functions are not working properly. Of course, the developers are busy building and improving, but at the moment TNG is not yet operational.
I'm also building my second CNC milling machine and I'm thinking about using the Planet CNC solution again or changing completely. Maybe I'll try a solution with Mach 3 or Linux CNC.
