Re: [Emc-users] 2.7.0 is out!

2015-10-21 Thread jrmitchellj .
After some more testing, I am beginning to believe that. I added "idle=poll" to the boot parameters, and that seemed to help a bit. I am still trying to figure out why the latency is larger with the new install of Debian & LCNC 2.7.0. Are there any other tests or utilities I can use to try and

So I've been having a look at the Mesa website and see a few products that I don't think existed until recently. All Ethernet based: 1. 7i92Ethernet to dual 'LPT' ports, easy retrofit for all existing LPT based systems 2. 7i80DB Ethernet to four 'LPT' ports, easy retrofit for all

Obviously it was not you busy looking at the new stuff that has been around for a while :). All very exciting. I will be making a switch to Ethernet based controls soon and I dont think I will be doing LPT stuff after that. I have don some configs with the 7i80 and it is really great.

Re: [Emc-users] 2.7.0, new trajectory planner, lost it's perfect pitch

Rob, My file was a bit modified from the default. But I think the reason for the change in speed in 2.7 is that G64 is selected (by default?) and so rather than play out to the ends of the timing values it blends to the next move and a) runs faster, and b) sounds different as it swoops into

[Emc-users] Minimum hardware?

What's the minimum hardware that the current version will run on? I looked at the wiki and the .org pages and the information I could find is for Ubuntu 8 requirements. I'm just playing and exploring, I'm not actually running a machine, so speed and latency aren't issues for me right now.
