I’m running Chilipeppr with the tinyG. I’m using it in more of a “production” style where I’m running the same program over and over for 5 hours (about every 10 minutes). It will be running fine for periods of time, but then it will just go haywire and jog completely forward at the end of a program and hit a limit switch. I then home the machine and the work offset is lost. This happens randomly about once a day.
Has anyone ever had this issue, or have any idea of what could possibly be going on?
I used to run my machine for hours, and faced the same situation as your ocassionally, I couldn’t figure out what was causing it, possibly bad USB cable or WiFi issue when using RPi connected to WiFi, I never had this issue when I switched to ethernet.
ChiliPeppr sends all the lines of Gcode with receipting to ensure they are in the correct order, so not sure if WiFi could be it. I have had issues with the M30 gcode command on TinyG though. Do you use that command?
If I left nothing that would require me to home the machine and reload the program every time though, right? Versus just loading a new work piece and pressing play.
Alright so I gave that a shot. I ran the program 5 times in a row and it was working well. Then on the 6th time the program stopped on the 2nd to last line right after G0. I attached my program. Any idea of what may be causing that?
