I went through the setup; but no where was there a spot to put in the
backlash. How/where so I set the backlash?

Based on your description, I think that is what was causing me to lose
steps. I was able to start the router in motion, drop down to a cutting
position and then begin cutting. Since I was cutting at 1 depth for more

Sam - it sounds like you have a manual :) Have you found any info on the
voltage the encoder (and pot) should be working at? I have used 5V to be safe...
Thanks

I like your distinction of GPL OS vs OS, but it would also be nice if
you included a column for the supported Operating Systems. A column
for each OS, and a tag in that column such as "F - Fully supported",
"M - Might Compile", "X - Known not to work", etc. -Chuck-

the manual says there is a 116 to 1 gear reduction in each servo that
run the potentiometer. :)

Hi Jim.
I forgot to mention there is an index o/p from the encoders also. The travel of
the pots on the motors are geared to match the complete range of the joint so I
can use the far ends of the resistance range for limits (or any point in
between) and a centre point for homing.
When I get

Well that sucks :) my plan is to make some inexpensive h-bridges and
using one of the mesa cards we have to run it. 40v and a few amps
should be easy. I am very surprised that it is sin/cos. Darn. I will
keep tabs on this thread for sure .
Thanks again.

Hi all - just a quick update on my Puma project.
As a thought, the output from the original encoders is a sin/cos waveform (to
see goto http://www.flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ ). I will try to
convert this low level signal into a ttl level square wave using an op-amp. The
encoder has a

Thanks John, I will check the house computer to see if anything is strange.

Cool .. I've been putting a list of CAD and CAM programs that run on Linux

Where is PyOpenGL-3.0.0b5.tar.gz?
Nothing like that in pycam-0.1.1.tgz and running 'python setup.py bdist_egg'
or 'python setup.py py2exe' just causes beeps and a number of 1.9MB
PostScript files to be created.

John, if you look at your messages and everyone else's you will notice
that all of theres have a the reply-to set up to reply to emc, all of
your messages are set to you. So if you don't want people to reply to
you, you might think about fixing that.
Be nice John if you are representing EMC.
And my favourite license too :)
Anyways, I hope you get a lot of help to turn this into something as good
and used as EMC, I am sure that a lot of people have been waiting on open
source CAM.
