Re: Kogna ethernet connection with DHCP

Thank you Tom That explains everything. DHCP not working without the router is a bit unfortunate... I was hoping it might make life simpler to use DHCP universally, but obviously not possible. I can see connection being an ongoing support question for Mantis.. even at times for myself :) Moving on n...

Re: Kogna ethernet connection with DHCP

Thanks. A bit of fiddling round but Kogna now connects with DHCP. It does make me appreciate how easy Kflop is with its USB connection... but I suppose the price of progress.. I do find it a bit unclear who is requesting and who is assigning, but for now it works. In Putty requested is now 0.0.0.0 a...

Re: Kogna ethernet connection with DHCP

Hi Edit above.

The PC and Kogna are both connected to a small 5 port router. That is also connected to a modem.

I'll first try setting the Kogna requested address to zero using a terminal program....

Thanks G

Kogna ethernet connection with DHCP

Hi I've struck an issue with Kogna on my ethernet. I have been using a manual address on my IPV4 adapter. Network Adapter IPV4 = 192.168.0.106 Kogna = 192.168.0.100 This allows the Kogna to connect fine. However when I try to connect to the internet over the same network it will not access most web ...

Re: Read Failed Auto Disconnect

Mmmm. Well I have some code for checking available serial com ports. I might try adding that to do a once only check and identify. If it finds a port I can prevent it from assuming it might be a kflop... and not try to lock it.

Re: Read Failed Auto Disconnect

I haven't tried 4.35f.

Is it not something that can be done in the programming?

For example getting some info from the device before attempting to lock it? Then decide whether it might be a Kflop?

Re: Read Failed Auto Disconnect

This sounds like it might be related to a problem I have found when other FTDI devices, like a serial adapter is plugged into PC. I will describe using the Kmotion utility program as an example... If Kflop is plugged in and not the other FTDI device then all is fine. I can then plug in the other dev...

Re: Why kmotionserver?

You are correct - it did finally change with V434. I haven't migrated yet... 8-)

Re: Why kmotionserver?

ON the subject of Kmotion server I find it invaluable for monitoring the Kflop especially while debugging my program, testing c-code etc. My main complaint is when I start it up and that damn white window covers my whole monitor, every time! What is the possible purpose of that? I'm sure I have spen...

Re: Softlimits and scara kinematics

Hi

The .h file would be useful to see. Can you post it?

BTW - is there a way to confirm which kinematics model is being used by KmotionCNC?

Thanks
