Hi,   I never found a GUI editor available on the BBB Machinekit system through the desktop (doesn't mean it's not there somewhere).  I installed 'gedit' once, but later my system started getting realtime delay errors popping up in Axis.  I'm not sure if gedit itself caused the problem, but it

Re: [Emc-users] beaglebone black capeless CNC configuration

Hi,  From a Linux terminal, you can use the 'nano' editor.  It takes a little getting used to, but works fine for small changes.  Make a small change to a file and write it out (test before making a lot of changes).  If it doesn't allow you to write, then exit and use sudo nano. For example: s

Ok, thanks for the advise! Are those files the ones located at linuxcnc\linuxcnc\configs\ARM\BeagleBone\BeBoPr-Bridge? Which editor can I use? Thanks again PD: sorry I´m not a linux user at all, but trying to do my best ;-) 2013/11/13 Charles Steinkuehler > The stepconf program does not cur

Re: [Emc-users] beaglebone black capeless CNC configuration

The stepconf program does not currently know how to generate configurations for the BeagleBone PRU step generator. You will need to edit the gain settings for the X/Y/Z axis manually in the machine configuration file. On 11/13/2013 5:45 PM, Maximiliano Fermín Córdoba wrote: > Hi, > > Today I´ve

Hi, Today I´ve run linuxcnc, selected the BeBoPr-Bridge board configuration , and the AXIS gui come out. Then I run a few gcodes (g0,g1 etc) and measure the pulses with my osciloscope. So it seems that everything should work if I connect this pins to my driver boards. Now I want to configure my
