camv-rnd FAQ

+ +

1. File formats

+ +

1.1. g-code for laser cutter

+A common g-code laser cut dialect uses M3 and M5 for turning the laser +on/off. For other machines (mills, routers), these codes control the +spindle. The default configuration assumes the latter. If you have a file +for laser and it doesn't use G0 for travel but relies on M3/M5 for +laser on/off, you need to switch the config bit at plugins/import_gcode/laser +before loading the file. +

+On GUI, tick in the corresponding laser menu in File/Loader configuration. +

+On the command line, use -c plugins/import_gcode/laser=1. +

+If you more often use g-code files for laser than not, you can make this the +default value in your user config. + +

2. build/install

+ +

2.1. Error while loading shared libraries

+If the above error message appears and lists librnd-* libs when executing +camv-rnd, that means your operating system's dynamic loader is unable to +find There are trhee common reasons for this: +

camv-rnd is installed from binary and librnd is not installed. Install librnd. +
librnd is installed from source to standard installation prefix (/usr or /usr/local); on some systems ldconfig needs to be run after installing new libs from source so that the system's dynamic loader can find the new .so files +
librnd is installed from source to a non-standard installation prefix, e.g. installation in home directory or /opt; see INSTALL.librnd.txt for the extra steps this setup requires +
