Well, I'm finally to the point where I can hook the 'pooter to
control box and the control box to the machine. I've got a moving
gantry two-axis machine, using the X and Z axes, with dual rack and
pinion set ups on the X axis. I thought I'd archived a whole bunch
of emails and other
If the GUI latency test gives a result of how EMC will perform I always
wondered if abusing the computer during the test does not result in an
overly conservative number. I never use the computer that is running EMC
with any other program until the parts are done. (Am I the only one?) There
I updated emc2 to 2.3.4.
I think the old version was 2.2.8 which was runing ok.
I'm trying to configure the new file hm2-sevo.hal but I can not have
any output from the 7i37
I can reed all the inputs from the home-switches but I can not close any
output, even when I open
Maybe the problem is CPU TERMAL TROLLING?
I tested one PC, which had BIOS without option to disable CPU TERMAL TROLLING.
I did not find any way how to use that PC with EMC2.

Sorry I don't know what that is. I guess it means my BIOS has no
On a side note I have just started testing a Dell Optiplex
GX520. When you first start the computer during the first 4 minutes there
are two 250,000 spikes in the test with or without SMI. So far they do not
repeat again even after the computer is on for several hours. Have had
similar

OK, so I started up the computer, then waited 1/2 hour. Then I ran the
latency test for 1/2 hour with no abuse, and the latency was below 7
microseconds. I have plenty of other computers, so I certainly don't
need to be doing anything else on my EMC box when it's running EMC.

Ah OK. The penny drops. When I get home tonight, I'll follow the
directions to disable SMI and see what happens.
Is SMI the facility that makes the fans speed up and slow down
according to how busy the system is? Or is that something else?
(My fans seem very dynamic, speeding up and slowing down

I think you want to connect the signal coming from the index to the

In your hal, use
net xindex axis.0.index-enable = ppmc.0.encoder.00.index-enable

reader that the communication between the two pins is bidirectional.)
