Re: [Machinekit] Beaglebone machinekit stepconig problem

As Bas said, you need to modify an existing BBB config. There are a whole layer of reasons why what you did will not work. Right at the top, is that you don't have a parport (parallel port). The main reason people use the BBB, is that Charles programmed the PRU for hardware stepping etc. thus breaking the vicious circle of using the parport and the ultra low latency kernel requirement that exists in linuxcnc, for basic hardware.

It’s easier to take an existing configuration for a Beaglebone setup and modify for your situation.

After i setup my configuration for lathe and i start it, it doesnt work. Then i read why it stopped it says because my_lathe.hal and the line is 'setp parport.0.reset-time 5000'. Than i comment this line i can launch my config. So what does this line mean, can i leave it commented or maybe i should change something.
