Owen,
I have been on vacation and am just catching up with my email. I won't
actually be back until after Labor Day (That's Sept 6 for those not from the
colonies ).

Should be the correct command, but I will check it when I get back.

quite well hashed over about 6 months ago.

Igor, Alan,
QCad doesn't do CAM.
It sound like that Don needs 3D CAM, usually
this means ornamental style work.
HeeksCAD and HeeksCAM is a option there,
but I am not sure if it does 5-axis, something to
check I think.
On the #CAM channel there are a lot of talks about it.

Alan, how much have you done with it? Does it do CAM also?

Check out HeeksCAD and HeeksCAM. I have not tried them in depth

Hi All;
I am looking for replacement CAD system that works
reliably on Linux (Lathe and Mill types).
I need 3 Axis (3D) to start and 5 Axis control in the future.
Post Processing for EMC2 would be ideal.
Does anyone know a good choice?
Thanks
Don

It should be.
You will need pull-up resistors on the two encoder lines, I think the
datasheet says to use 3.9k or something. I have used the GH6102 before,

Hi Guys. I have a Saitek P800 joypad configured as a mill control. It
is awesome.
It has one parameter pre-set:

Then I have a few buttons configured for jogging:

The Matrix control on my Mazak Vertical has a component called an "Intelligent
Safety Shield" that does what you were describing. However, "does" is a bit
misleading, as you have to load a model file that describes the machine, the
table and the "out-of-bounds" areas. And a lot of parameter chan

Yep. I would use a lower refresh rate and a VGA cable.

If LCD is used and not for games then just use lowest possible refresh

Last time I ran a dual head setup, the starting without a xorg.conf didn't
work out yet, it does now, would be interesting to see a xorg.conf less dual
head.
Since it has no way of knowing they are on top of each other, I suspect I
need one for at least that reason.

Yes but the cameras use the NTSC-like (640x486, 60Hz, interlaced)

Why not use camera cable for the analog?
