Re: [Emc-users] PCIe vs Ethernet Mesa card?

Could the delay be caused by DHCP? If the computer does a DHCP query and does not find a DHCP server it will re-try perhaps many times. The solution would be "don't do that" and assign a fixed IP address. Has anyone actually tried using the same Ethernet for normal uses and connected to Mesa

A lengthy delay is definitely not my experience. I boot from a SSD and the entire startup process is definitely takes less than a minute. > -Original Message- > From: John Dammeyer [mailto:jo...@autoartisans.com] > Sent: Monday, July 06, 2020 4:52 PM > To: 'Enhanced Machine Controller

One thing I find my wireless keyboard does sometimes is that a key can get "sticky wirelessly". Mostly when I'm typing I sometimes get a "" until It suddenly stops. I'm mostly using the keyboard for signing in and modify the tool table etc, but since I'm using axis I sometimes think it

It's not a big deal. Whacks me across the head if I rush starting AXIS. There's always something to do as the system is brought to life. Like sweep up shavings or add oil to the spindle lube cups on the lathe. Put tools away. Clean rust film that started showing up this year after 10 years

Re: [Emc-users] PCIe vs Ethernet Mesa card?

Older Tormach machines such as my PCNC770-3 shipped with either a 5i25 or 6i25. Newer machines (now with significantly faster rapids) use a 7i92. Note that there appears to be no way to share a single Ethernet port on the host computer with a 7i92 and normal network connectivity. I have it working

Is there any advantage to using a bus connected Mesa card like the 6i25 vs using one of the Ethernet-connected cards such as 7i92M or 7i93 It seems that Ethernet would allow me to control the CNC Mill and lathe from any computer even the ones in the office and also from a computer that lacks a

Now that I read this, I feel the need to tell that I experienced this behaviour from time to time in 2.8 but with the manual jog lever (wich is connected thru a 7i73) not the keyboard. It felt mostly like a switch not making good contact but I'll check this with halscope later when I'm at the
