Brandon's files are a reasonable place to start, but they are a bit dated. There have been some changes to Machinekit that may require some simple mods to the hal file. Check /var/log/linuxcnc.log which will at least tell you what's going wrong. Two things that come to mind are changing the hal_pru_generic driver name to hpg (the exported pin names were getting too long otherwise) and you need to pass a tp= setting to the motion planner. > Do I only need the .ini and .hal files, or are there accompanying files > needed also? The .ini and .hal files are the core part of the configuration, but there can be other files as well. Typically for the BBB there will be a script to load any required device-tree overlays and setup the I/O pins, a python script to read and convert ADC values to temperature, and possibly some other files (like the two 3D* files in the CRAMPS config which add the temperature panel to the gui). -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
