How difficult would it be to use a camera and Open CV with LCNC for visual tool
recognition? The number and types of things Open CV has been used for is a very
long list, including things like programs that learn how to play (and beat)
videogames.
Recognizing images of tools should be easy

This looks too complex for me now. Besides, it may be useful to save
some parameters without using remap.
Can I save / restore toolnumber using Parameter saver component? I can't
find any hal input pin to which I could connect paramsaver.outvalueS-000
for example.
the issue with this approach is: the interpreter is the wrong place to apply
initial tool state start conditions
assume you somehow set the initial tool number in the interpreter and then you
turn the machine on:
- you have state of the machine, and state of the interpreter.
- the interpreter
I've got a four-axis breakout board that I'm using LinuxCNC's
Stepconf setup to drive quite happily - at least in the testing
stages - using the supplied sample g-code files. If I try to set
up a 3-axis config, Stepconf happily obliges: but the output to
the motors seems to be a lathe config,

Posting information such as the .INI and .hal files would allow much deeper
analysis.
In this instance pastebin is your friend.

Thanks Stuart. I'll get onto that tomorrow (Aus time) when I have the box

Hi folks, we held our scheduled project meeting yesterday. We used our

Hello all;
I just ordered a sheet of 1/2 thick phenolic to make pcb pallets from, and
a foot of 1 acetal rod to make those thermally molded nuts from for my toy
mill. Gotta get rid of some backlash if I'm going to etch some more pcb's.
That leaves one other obvious weak point, the length of

Also, I have another 3-axis config that does exactly the same thing; a third
one also did that but I chose not to save it after testing the motors from
within the Stepconf wizard.
