Since it's not a realtime component, you can load it at any time. You'd have to hook up your hal nets at that time. Alternatively you could change the gs2_vfd driver to handle communication outages better, by going into some kind of dormant retry state. Buuuuut i have my doubts about both of those options. IMO they are not as good as simply wiring the VFD to come on when you apply power to the machine, long before linuxcnc starts. That would treat the VFD much like the FPGA in the Mesa card - it's part of the control logic, and it comes on with the rest of the control logic. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
