hey guys just getting back to this index pulse stuff i have re hacked my whole config and remember what i did now lol i am disabling m19 spindle orientation now i think and i just want to rotate the spindle at 5rpm until the spindle index enable pin triggers high if i can't use the encoder

I have made more progress on the Clausing NC. My DC servo dives operate in Current Mode and are controlled by LinuxCNC using a cascaded Position and Velocity PI controllers. I have a Huanyang VFD 7.5 kw drive running the spindle but just manually controlled for now. I still need to add a spindle

Re: [Emc-users] Recommended GUI dev environ?

For easy LinuxCNC integration I think that the sensible choices are either Glade + Gtk or QT. I don't know much about QT, but Plasmac made a shift to QT from whatever it was first written in, so must have something going for it. For a custom GUI, though, it might make sense to start with Gscreen

I've tried F360 for code on a small lathe and find it quite painful to get the toolpath usable. It often wants to part off before completing the turn, or just doesn't machine optimally. Possibly because I mostly machine with a grooving tool, so you don't need a tool-change. I have to mess with
