Planet CNC ATC Script

Hello. Is there someone who can help me with Carousel type ATC. Ive been struggling along for weeks with this. I have fitted a carousel type ATC to my mill running Mk3/9
The corousel is driven by servo motor.
If im correct in my thinking, once the carousel is homed and at position 1, the rest of the tools will be at a certain degree of rotation of the carousel? So for a 12 position carousel that would be every 30 degrees? Sounds pretty straight forward unless im over simplifying this? If this is indeed the case, what im having an issue with is in the tool table theres only options to assign XYZ to the tool. No option for rotary axis in degrees? Ive searched the internet for weeks and find very little info on planet cnc with carousel. Found a video with a geneva drive (not rotary) and a video in German which ive looked at over and over and cant make sense of. If there someone who can shed some light id be truly grateful

Thank you in advance

You cam modify M6 script to add carousel rotation.

Which controller you using ??? explain me everything at [email protected]

Thank you. Yes i figured that, but dont know how to modify script. Thats exactly what i need help with. Maybe if i can see a working M6 script with carousel so i can get an idea to modify for my use....
When i look at default M6 script i dont see anything about carousel

I recommend taking a look at the M6 script file code, and locate the "Move To" section. Here you can add the move lines of gcode for your A axis.


Guide on how to access script code:
https://cnc.zone/kb/tutorials/easy/how_to_edit_built-in_script_files

Thank you for reply. I tried this. I added tool at top of script and at the point in the script "Move To" I added the line G53 G00 A#<tool>
So that seems to do something right. When i run the script the A axis moves to "20". But now how do I add other tool locations? I tried adding a tool at A=40 as below but how to point to that in script when tool No.2 is called?

You can use custom parameter from your tool table to store A value for each tool.
https://cnc.zone/tng/parameters/param-_tool_par1_num
https://cnc.zone/tng/machine_menu/ma...l_table-custom

_tool_par1_num, _tool_par2_num, _tool_par3_num

Must i put this parameters.txt?
I already set tool 1 to par1

These are changes to script - see below in purple

Must i add _tool_par1_num to the parameter.txt file? and what is num??

OK managed to get it working. All tool changes working as it should. Thank you for the pointers

Now another issue. Not affecting the actual operation of the tool change but would make it faster. Does planet cnc have a "rollover"?
Meaning, can a rotary axis be set from 0 degrees to 360 degrees and instead of going to 361 degrees it "rolls over" to o again.
So that during a tool change, if tool is unloaded at 350 degrees and next tool is at 10 degrees, the axis just moves 20 degrees to the shortest distance to next tool instead of reversing 340 degrees to get back to.position 10 degree. Hope I'm making sense here.
Can anyone shed some light?
Thank you in advance

Take a look, how in Unwind implemented.
https://cnc.zone/tng/machine_menu/ma...osition_unwind

this only helps you if you are already at a position lager than 360°
not if you want to go from, say, 350 to 10. In this case you would need to go to 370 and then call the unwind (btw is there a gcode to call unwind)

Unwind is this g-code:
G10 L9 A[#<_machine_a> MOD 360]
