emc2 doesn't include any serial protocol drivers. You would have to
write the driver to do this yourself.
The most important thing to know is that emc2 requires a new feedback
position at the servo rate (typically 1ms) and emc (not external
hardware) has to control when the feedback position is
drivers are free to (and probably should) keep encoder counts in 'long
long's. This way, the exported count may wrap at 2^31-1 (limit of
signed 32-bit ints) but the exported position can continue to increase
to 2^63-1 counts.

I'm not sure what to tell you -- I just tested the code from
http://axis.unpy.net/01198594294 again and it (still) works for me.
Today, I'm using emc 2.2, ubuntu 8.04, and the arduino diecimilila
board. The sketch was compiled

At the boot screen, you need to choose the -rtai kernel. You may only
get a few seconds to access the boot screen by hitting escape -- watch
for the prompt.
You can remove the -generic kernel altogether so that the -rtai kernel
is the only option, or you can change the default option to -rtai.
emc (and so this is a limitation shared by all the GUIs, not just axis)
is designed to separate different activities into different modes. In
auto mode, you can run a program and in manual mode you can do
things like jog. There's no way for a running program to switch out of
auto into manual
emc2 uses nml to communicate between milltask and the user
interface programs such as axis, tkemc, and halui. nml is based on
buffers with layout set at compile time, and on local systems I believe
that these are actually implemented through a shared memory method.
However, there is also a
I think that image-to-gcode may be working as designed, though I
understand that it's not giving the results you want.
Your screenshot shows that you specified a tool diameter of 2mm and
a pixel size of 0.5mm. That means that the tool covers 4 pixels.
But in your antialiased images, the blackest

I didn't make it through the video, but emc supports probing with G38.2.
G38.2 probe does a straight movement and records the feedback position
at the time a digital input goes TRUE. It then decelerates the axis
within machine constraints. The resulting values are stored
in interpreter
