Re: [Machinekit] Re: how to add toolchanger funtion to BBB with Xylotex cape

By defining the axis as a LINEAR axis in the ini, and by messing just a little with toolchanger.comp (removed the adjusting for greater than 360 degrees - just let it accumulate) I am able to get repeatable tool changes for hundreds of tool changes - more than I expect would ever happen in a

Re: [Machinekit] What is the big diff between Machinekit and LinuxCNC.

As of know im trying to couple a lattepanda with a 7i46E card instead of having to rely on several mesa boards as in my servo setup (6i25+7i77+7i84). The test bed is just a plasma table wit 3 stepper motors.. nothing fancy.. and it will see its fair share of time ouside in the rain.. thats why

[Machinekit] Re: running ngc code without gui

I found when doing something similar that linuxcncrsh display is quite convenient for this. Its a telnet client so you could easily just login and start a loop of a given set of gcode. And if you are little fiddly its not that hard to create a telnet client over ajax and javascript and run on

Re: [Machinekit] What is the big diff between Machinekit and LinuxCNC.

I see, i actually thought it replaced both the host card and the daughter card and didnt run an OS. That after reading repo readmes and some of the issues i was linked to before. So it would still need an external daughter card. Still that is quite interesting. if one could save on buying

thats is a relevant question.. i havent got that far.. but that thing runs machinekit and a drummed down version of debian im guessing with a custom kernel?! It's not acting as an addon board no?! // A Den 2016-12-06 kl. 12:29, skrev Mathias Giacomuzzi: So the goal of that DE0-Nano-Soc is a

Thats just incredible cool. Gonna have to dig out my DE0-Nano-Soc card out of the electronics bin then.. Thought it was just acting like a IO card or similar like attaching an Arduino. But if it can act as the 7i76 or 7i77 cards and a generic 5i25.. that makes alot more sense then.. because
