Serious Tool offset/M30 problem


Steve Blackmore
 

Hi Art - there is a really nasty bug that crept in somewhere.
On a M30 the file rewinds and the tool offsets get removed even though
nothing is ticked in logic apart from turn off all outputs.

I haven't noticed it before because I normally change back to tool 1
which has no offsets, but I finished a file with tool that has offsets
of Z 1.092 and X 10.7 - on M30 file rewinds and tries to go to X-10.7
Z-1.092 and stuffs the tool into the job!!

It tried to MOVE after the M30? M30 shouldn't cause any movement, if the
offsets remove, then the DRO's should simply read the non-offet position. Do
you mean that if you do a GotO zero's it moves into the stock, or do you
mean it actually moves from the M30????

Thanks,

It actually moves after the M30!

Here's the last few lines of the GCode

N2660 X25.9 Z22.3
N2670 G0 X30. Z40.
N2680 M05 M30

It moves to X30 Z40 then the spindle stops then it moves to X-10.7
Z-1.092!!

Summat really weird here :(

Maybe you'd better send me the whole program. I can't reproduce this one
and it sounds like a nasty one ...

I got a problem like this after an M30 this WE but was not sure it was me or
a mach2 problem. It was a Z move at the beginning of the file (but i had no
Z move at the beginning of the program, just at the end).

Art,

Fixed - I replaced the xml with my backup copy and the problem has gone!
