[Emc-users] Synchronized Component

2010-11-06 Thread Kirk Wallace
Hello. I need to write a base thread component that does something based on the start of the servo thread (strobe AVR data lines). For example, I could have a base thread component that increments a counter. On the third count, do foobar, reset the counter and wait for the next servo thread start.

[Emc-users] Parport Bulk Write

2010-11-06 Thread Kirk Wallace
I am starting to think about how to put an eight bit word on a parallel port. My first guess is to load Parport, then write a component that shifts an unsigned variable a bit at a time to each parport pin, but I wonder if there is a cleaner way to write the whole (8bit) word to, lets say, pins
