[Emc-users] Dyna-Mite 2400 conversion
I have a friend who has just bought a Dyna-Mite 2400 CNC vertical mill. I have one myself and it has very solid bones. Mine was stripped down to the basics and refitted with 200 step nema 23 motors which I run with linuxcnc and mesa 5i25/7i76. His is still in mostly original condition with escap steppers. I am concerned that the escap steppers are not up to the job because most people replace them with newer steppers. His machine was running Mach3 and he got the laptop with the setup files and Mach3 but I think the license stayed with the previous owner. He wants me to convert it to LinuxCNC and I am willing to help but I can foresee trying to reverse engineer someone else's reverse engineering. Does anyone have any experience with setting up LinuxCNC on the Dyna and retaining the ESCAP steppers ... or not?

[Emc-users] RPI stable kernel
Hi all, Can anybody suggest the most recent stable kernel for the RPI 3 with functional preempt rt patches? I've been runnning 4.9.30-rt20-v7+, but I've been seeing crashes (lockups) very often. The CPU(s) seems to be spinning at 100% because the SoC gets really warm. -- Greetings Bertho (disclaimers are disclaimed) -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

If you work with hardware SPI might be a solution, it is very common on micro controllers, fast and cheap but with limitations. I have seen Ethercat modules with SPI interface. I think there might other field bus devices with SPI but are not sure but it make little sense with SPI interface for field buses with UART and CAN since these are available inside micro controllers. For non real time I guess ordinary ethernet make sense. I think there are both WiFi and Ethernet with SPI interfaces available. -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
