[Emc-users] Running LinuxCnc without Mesa cards
Hi, I need to do a lot of changes to a customer's system that has 5i23 and other cards installed. I dont have a similar installation to work on so my question is, is there a way to run LinuxCnc or just start it up without functionality, without having the 5i23 installed. Something like a dummy component. I need to make sure all the HAL connections are made and are to the right pins. Once that is done I can take the files to their system and test. -- Regards / Groete Marius D.

A build-option where the HAL driver could be built in a simulator mode would be nice. All the HAL-pins would be exposed and available for monitoring, but no real hardware would be required.

Hi Micheal, I hear you. The problem is that I have to keep a machine just for that hardware. Also it has more than one 5i23. I suppose I will have to do that anyway. The 5i23's will end up being used somewhere so it all starts again :) On 2013/03/02 12:41 PM, Michael Haberler wrote: Am 02.03.2013 um 11:27 schrieb Anders Wallin: On Sat, Mar 2, 2013 at 10:13 AM, Marius Liebenberg mar...@mastercut.co.zawrote: Hi, I need to do a lot of changes to a customer's system that has 5i23 and other cards installed.
