FLUIDNC scraper compatibility.
FluidNC reports motion control a little differently through $axes request and $spindle request. Current issue is the homing cycle / max move speed / limits / spindle power / laser mode uses a $$ request which FluidNC doesn't respond to the same as GRBL. Only returns $10
Is this a FluidNC issue or a LaserGRBL issue?
Can you give a more detailed example of the messages sent by FluidNC? If possible, can you log the whole communication (LaserGRBL, menu "?", "activate extended log")
LaserGRBL is compatible with GRBL, and with firmware capable of behaving like GRBL.
Based on what I read here FluidNC it has basic compatibility, and as far as I can see from comlog.txt it seems to me that work quite well.
Feature like $axes and $spindle and other things specific to this firmware are not part of the GRBL specification and therefore are not supported in LaserGRBL.
Is there anything I did not understand in your request? Can you rephrase it?
I would like the homing button to show up and the speed max to be set. I guess I'm asking LaserGRBL to support FluidNC
When scraping,, The max speed is set by : $100 $101 In FluidNC: $axes/X/max_rate_per_min: $axes/Y/max_rate_per_min:
Laser power max is stored in: $laser/speedmap: instead of $30
I implemented the $30 command in FluidNC. Still, the Focus Toggle in LaserGRBL is not working for me. Any hints? Thanks
What version of LaserGRBL are you using? Look like an old version that does not support formula in custom button.
Any hints here? Should the formula be evaluated by fluidnc or by laserGRBL?
By LaserGRBL, but LaserGRBL should be able to read $30 value from controller to be able to evaluate formula. If this is not possible, just edit custom button and put a fixed S value based on your needs.
That's the issue with the laserGRBL scraper. With fluidNC you can query $30 but it doesn't return any value. You would have to query: $laser/speed_map And it would return one or two mins and a max. The max would be the $30 value.

His does not hold any more for the last fluidNC release. See https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC/issues/648

I revisited this issue. Can anybody confirm that LaserGRBL uses '$$' and expects a output for '$30'? How should the output format for $$ look like? Thanks
LaserGRBL send $$ than expect to receive the "ok" response (acknowledge to $$). After ok received, all the lines the macine send is queued into a list (until a timeout since the last message received) then this list is parsed to extract config parameters.
a config parameter is something like "$" at the beginning of a line, followed by numbers, by any spaces, by "=" and then everything. this regular expression is used: "^$\s*=(.*)"
