Greetings all;
This vfd somehow has the ability to save and restore its configuration
data but the wording is quite ambiguous as to where its stored.
Internally or externally in the controlling host pc. It uses the
phrase "digital operator" which could translate to its own front panel.
Since
My dream would be "broadcon" going out of business ending all the Rpi crap.
A big bag of cash falling from the sky over all the LCNC devs homes.
Someone putting effort into 4+ axis open source CAM or other useful
software.

Well, what I would ideally picture is a realtime hardware motion
controlled coupled to a Raspberry PI running Linux non-RT, the PI is
hooked to a PC and has an embedded http server. At that point you
access it via browser and load and control control your job from the PC
interface. estop etc
I have used an RS232-to-RS485 adapter and just plugged it into the PC
serial port. It was not ideal to add another cable from the PC but it
works fine. There are MODBUS drivers for LinuxCNC.

I disagree. The problem is making the machine configuration easy. If
LCNC ran on Winders or Androids, many would still complain about how
difficult it is to configure. Active High vs Low for Limit switches,
Home switches, Step and Dir signals, encoder pulses per rev. etc etc is
far to challenging

Greetings Peter;
The new vfd materialized here today, and I see it actually has what it
calls an RS485 interface, a teeny little white 3 pin socket on its
motherboard.
And I have one or two 422 to 485 translators, the $2 variety, that I
believe are duplex capable as I had to wire them to a
I have to agree, The entire point of moving al real time functions to
hardware is so that a real-time OS is no longer required.
The only reason Linux is even needed is that it is an easy way to get a
real-time OS. If not for the RT requirement you could use a Mac or
Windows or even an iPad or

Theres a lot of non-english speaking linuxcnc developers,

Actually I *don't* want to run a form of Linux.
I suggested running a Linux variant because it would simplify porting
code. Most HAL code only uses a few system calls so you could emulate
those calls. IMHO rewriting everything to run on dedicated hardware is a
bad idea. Not having
John Thornton, Hello,
I have a problem upgrading from Debian 8 to Debian 9 ( Jessie to Stretch i
think they are named ).
I followed these notes

I had no errors or warnings until
near the end I got this message
