Help! DectectCircularSymmetry not working.

[Greg Toman]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, as I am new. I have an Opulo and am stuck at trying to calibrate the nozzles. The CVpipeline used DetectCircularVision, but when I look at the "MaxDistance" setting it says it is set by the pipeline caller, and is -1.

I believe this is resulting in the error, "search range is cropped to nothing".

I have tried everything, but I can't find a setting that results in anything except maxDistance = -1.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Greg

Hi,

not a dumb question, perhaps this Wiki text helps?

https://github.com/openpnp/openpnp/wiki/DetectCircularSymmetry#nozzle-tip-calibration

The maxDistance property is automatically derived from the already present Offset Threshold.

For this to be -1 I guess you would have to have a strange Offset Threshold ?

I figured it out. Somehow my camera calibration was lost, and had 0.0 pixels/mm. I corrected this and it worked. Now I am working "Effective Save Z coordinate 40.000mm is outside Safe Z Zone after performing a feed.

Ah yes that makes sense too.

Best open a new conversation thread, so this is documented for posterity.

Wow! Thanks for the very quick response! 

I have found that occasionally I seem to set some calibration up, and might forget to hit "APPLY" before I navigate away from the tab I was on. If my guess is correct, this is how I sometimes "lose" settings that I thought I made. If I am right, it would be nice if the software would prompt me that I am about to throw away my changes.  

Not sure if my suggestion is correct or useful, but I wanted to pass it along.

Overall, outstanding softrware! 

Thank you!

Yeah, that is a long-standing issue. The idea is to remove Apply completely, modify the settings immediately, and instead provide a Revert button or similar.

Unfortunately, no good or easy way to solve this generically known to me (yet). Contributions welcome! 😁
