-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Now I've got LinuxCNC (both RTAI and PREEMPT_RT) connected to my 3D printer and moving around the X/Y/Z/A(E) axis, I need to get some temperature control wired up. I would like to just hang a few ADCs off of some parallel port pins programmed to function as an I2C bus.
So...has anyone implemented a serial expansion protocol such as I2C or SPI via the parallel port for LinuxCNC? It's pretty easy to bit-bang these protocols, but the code would have to gracefully co-exist with software stepgen. Throughput wouldn't really matter much, as the thermal time constants are pretty long so even a few samples/s would probably enable a working PID loop. - -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAlA+kxoACgkQLywbqEHdNFzE2ACfZjANxZ9pu3CalFbmqKxV6Den 81cAoLsZCGf6JGn8PvVyzSyPwnOoEWsh =oKWH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
