MPCNC Primo Workflow Update - Switched to CNCJS....

- I've switched back to CNCJS from Octoprint. After I rebuilt the Primo I decided to take another look at my workflow and CNCJS seems to be working better for me.

You are entirely correct, learning work flow after the fact exposes all the mistakes made.
...and rebuys, relearn, to the bin are the only way to correct things.
Wasted money, wasted time, near complete losses.
Work flow also implies all the necessary ingredients needed at each step and why.
Hardly any of these vendors provide a clear map of work flow and what is required at each node. It is all thrown in incomplete disconnected layouts that generate 100s of questions.
...hodpodge soup...
You are exposing but a small part and only to those who already have a basic structure, good or bad.
it ia very useful progra, thanks.
I am going to ask if there is a posibility to include an autolevelling extention ot height map to improve the machine planarity .
I can not find out a simple way to do it .
Thanks
Thanks for the video. How do you control the speed of the 660?
@@ProjectbyBrian Have you used CNCjs for a single job/file that does bit changes? If so, how did you deal with it? I have some gcode insterted in the file but can't figure out how to get the z re-zeroized (ie: using a probe or manually).
How do you manage zeroing the machine and aligning that to your workspace with CNCjs? I'm having issues with utilizing the work offsets
@@ProjectsbyBrian Great thanks! Just to clarify, you home the machine in CNCjs to zero and square the axes, then jog it to your Fusion coordinate start point on your workpiece, and then touch off your z height with the probe? After which CNCjs just runs the gcode as if it were zeroed at that point?
Hi, can u share the dust shoe archive?
Did you configure a z probe?
How did you get the right post processor for the MPCNC into fusion360?
Thanks!
Hey Brian, recently switched to CNCjs as well from octoprint. I cant seem to get my machine coordinates and work coordinates to work like you have at 3:23 in the video. They just stay at 0.000 have you seen this? Running the latest CNCjs.
@@ProjectsbyBrian yeah even when I manually jog the machine.
@@ProjectsbyBrian Yeah, running the V1 dual endstop firmware on the rambo full size.
@@ProjectsbyBrian Same cncjs version as well. Do you have to hit the homing button up top before it shows up? If I do that, it tries to home Z and if I dont have the probe under it, it obviously crashes the Z into the spoilboard.
@@ProjectsbyBrian I guess thats another question, do you home z before you offset it off to your workpiece or do you just home X Y and then home Z to the workpiece.
@@austinoneil2906 I'm having this same issue. If you find a solution, I'd love to hear about it.
Cool vid. What controller is that?
@@ProjectsbyBrian Sorry I meant the controller you used to move it instead of the touch screen.
@@ProjectsbyBrian Many thanks. I am printing my MPCNC Primo now. I have not ordered anything yet. Have some convincing of the accountant to do. So far the cost is 780 for all the parts I want.
@@ProjectsbyBrian No but I chose the 300 dollar spindle and a few other expensive components. Should I have gone smaller to start?
@@ProjectsbyBrian Sorry it was 225 not 300. www.amazon.com/Daedalus-Brushless-brushless-Switching-Engraving/dp/B083XQ9NF1/ref=as_li_ss_tl?crid=3AW9KCWEDPTZ1&dchild=1&keywords=500+watt+spindle&qid=1592879076&sprefix=500++spindle,aps,209&sr=8-22&linkCode=sl1&tag=vicicn-20&linkId=02bacb789162ea8fbfb7700d3bcda7ac&language=en_US
@@ProjectsbyBrian I have a spreadsheet with all the stuff I was looking at.
Maybe switch to metric units to get It to fit
Have in mind that you can run CNCJS from Rasbery Pi or Linux and you can also open the software from any other pc/tablet with browser like you do with octoprint.
I have test it on my linux laptop with Ubuntu but i dont have manage yet to make it run as service but the procedure is simpler with Rasberry Pi.
@@ProjectsbyBrian Well you can have dual boot ubuntu or the Pi if that helps you without the windows update the machine while you runing your CNC.
You dont need to connect the keyboard to the Pi...maybe i wasnt clear with this one you will have the Pi as "server" runing the cncjs and be connected to the MPCNC and the lapto or any other device as "client" connected to that instance of CNCJS.
Here is an example i followed for my Linux PC

if you ask me this is junk software I have been working on it for 2 days now just got my motors running and now got my limit switches done and tryed a test air cut and it said I need to change my tool do I need macros installed now and if so were do I get them I am new ,,I WAS USING MACH 3 but wanted to go with the xpro v5 i thought it was plug and play did i get fooled
