We'll have a ready-to-go SD card image with xenomai, all prerequisite packages and linuxcnc installed in a week or two; that will include Charles' PRU stepgen and Sergey's/GP Orcullo's emcweb, and should reduce the guru requirements to get things going > I'd use it for Yaskawa servo drives with both step/dir and analog control. > I suppose it's easier to get step/dir control, that would be enough for > starters. most of the work on that platform concentrated on steppers so far because being on the low end this looked like the likely use case > But further, there must be some DAC modules to use with BeagleBone for > analog control? "DAC" really boils down to PWM output again the linuxcnc stock components like pwmgen are included, and for servo their speed should be sufficient we already discussed quadrature encoders - that might need a bit of work to get polished for high ppr rates; the hardware is included, it 'just needs to be talked to' ;) - Michael > > Andrew > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced > analytics on semi-structured data.
