Interesting. How does it "talk" to LinuxCNC? Does LinuxCNC display things like 
DROs on the LCD?

Re: [Emc-users] Pendants for LinuxCNC or MachineKit

2018-05-08 Thread John Dammeyer 
I have my ELS that has a serial port or can have a CAN driver installed in 
place of the X axis STEP/DIR.  Lots of buttons to make a control panel and I've 
also installed a larger LCD display on some units.  The encoder knob works well 
for simple motion.   Press the knob down and it increments the step from 0.001 
to 0.005 to 0.010 to 0.020 and then around back to 0.001.  But in general it's 
just for tweaking position.  The arrow motion keys are used for normal motion.  
It's currently connected to the knee Gecko Drive which can't handle more than 
10,000 steps per second before the motor locks up.

In either case I'd somehow have to link that into LinuxCNC and that's beyond me 
at the moment and would take away from all the other projects.

I really like the ShuttleXpress.  But not enough buttons.  The expanded Shuttle 
would be better.  But I think I'll try this one from China first to get a feel 
how others are doing it.

The Mesa 7i73 has MPG counters and an LCD driver built in, so all that
can be done with existing LinuxCNC components.
(If you don\t want the fun of building all your own stuff. Or if you
are not using Mesa cards)

I'm building a pendent that will be kind of like this.   I want only 2
buttons.  I have the big encoder wheel an a small LCD.The idea is that
the buttons will not have functions printed on them but the function name
will be displayed on the LCD.  First version is wired using RJ45 jack and
Ethernet patch cord.  I might add WiFi later.

I'm printing a plastic hand-size enclosure for it.

Re: [Emc-users] Pendants for LinuxCNC or MachineKit

2018-05-08 Thread John Dammeyer 
Direct from China.  Claim is delivery between 22May and 01Jun.  I know I'll be 
able to plug it into the MACH3 CNC router and I've been looking at the LinuxCNC 
install.   One claim is the display doesn't stay very up to date with the 
position.  But then the problem with the internet forums is much of what is out 
there might be 2 to 10 years old.  Or there's the typical set of questions and 
never a summary that the problem was fixed and how it was fixed.

It wasn't a lot of money and I'm not sure I want a ShuttleXpress for the mill.  
It's been great for the router and there is BeagleBone support for it.  The 
computer and human interface side is still up in the air.  I may find after 
trying to mill the first circle that the backlash makes the system unusable 
until I either do something with the bronze nuts or retrofit ball screws.  

And I want to use the flood coolant pump that came with this mill so that means 
a bit larger cabinet around everything.

John;

I could give you my machine config, but it might be confusing, as it is not
"textbook optimal"

Start here by googling "linuxcnc xhc-hb04" and see what you get.

Basically:
1)
loadusr -W xhc-hb04 -I xhc-hb04-layout2.ini -s 4 -H

There are at least 2 button sets, mine is "layout2"

2)
# Home button
net home halui.home-all <= xhc-hb04.button-home


I'll add text from a file below - you can see that I've had it for a while,
but it shows some button mappings:

Awesome.  How did you incorporate it.  Is there a special hal file for it.
Initially I'll be mucking around with a BeagleBone MachineKit but eventually
a Linux PC.  
MachineKit more for the R and interest side than any other reason.

Hi John;

Absolutely - have one on one of my mills. I added it what must be a couple
of years ago; I believe that the "XHC-04" is what it is called.

I've got spindle control, jogging, zero setting, and probably other things
- not all the icons are in use, but more than enough to use it 90% of the
time after machine is homed; only the "start" button is now only used on
the monitor.
