This is what I am running. 03:06.0 Communication controller [0780]: MosChip Semiconductor Technology Ltd. PCI 9835 Multi-I/O Controller [9710:9835] (rev 01) It is a Rosewell (NewEgg brand). Looking through my order history it looks like I got it in 2009 and they still sell it.

Re: [Emc-users] Jog pins not showing in HAL configuration

Thanks. I guess the example I was watching is out of date. Would that make halui.axis.x.minus and halui.axis.x.plus the correct pins to use to implement jogging now? Dave On Sat, Mar 23, 2019 at 5:50 PM Dewey Garrett wrote: > > > >

That looks way too good to be true so it probably isn't. If you do set up a grid attached system be sure to have your utility install the correct meter or you will get to pay for every bit you pump into their system too. Old style meters only counted the watt hours going through them and didn't

Re: [Emc-users] Done with that panel code, with one exception

Lars Christensen has a bunch of Fusion 360 videos on YouTube. He works for Autodesk and has an absolute beginner series. It is how I learned basic Fusion 360. Dave On Fri, Dec 21, 2018 at 2:47 PM Dave Cole wrote: > > Its hard to beat this price for 3D Cad/Cam which is free for hobbyist > and
