After help from Bas (thank you), I got MachineKit working on a Beaglebone Black
and driving a ClearPath stepper. Here's a video:

Oh, it's more interesting than this. It seems the step output is sometimes a
square wave (with approximately 2ms period). If I jog a bit and stop, it
sometimes settles down to low, sometimes it has a couple pulses then a longer
high or low value. It's very curious and odd. Here's video showing w

That's a hefty stepper.

Oops, sent to soon, and forgot the list.
In addition to the responses below, I meant to add: I don't think what I'm
seeing is overshoot by the PID loop, at least not entirely, because when I'm
not jogging it, it only twiddles the direction output. The step output is
steady without pulses. If it

Hi
Has anyone done this setup already. I searched the forum and found only one
old message on the topic. The links to the right image no longer works.

Hi
I am planning on using a PocketBeagle for a project that will require some
Gcode to be sent to the controller via USB. What mechanism is provided in
MK to do this if any?

Depends on what you are running for your USB. Ethernet, then you are good.
There is the old way using halcmd stuff, and the new way using the
mkwrapper protocol.
The latter is what is used for Machineface and Cetus. I use Machineface
for running my machine from my tablet.
