Is this related to wanting to do height mapping, or laser rastering, or something? Whilst this could be done with shared memory, you might also want to look at using the HAL port to send the data serially. This is how the "raster" HAL component does it: https://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man9/raster.9.html Both the HAL "port" and the raster comp are pretty new. HAL ports are new in 2.9 and the raster comp is still only in master/2.10 -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
