Yes. I still do not know for sure the answer to this question. Because I have never seen any system like that, so I have no idea, how exactly do they work and I do not want to reinvent the wheel. Can anyone share some information or screenshots, what do those existing solutions have? What are they capable of? I guess that in my case requirements could be limited down to this list (actually second point alone would do): 1) load a separate g-code file for each separate LinuxCNC station and separately execute them - this would actually be a remote control with several machine being controlled from one GUI; 2) upon pressing some button/changing a tab or whatever, make all the stations execute one g-code file - this would require modified interpreter and non-standard g-code to exceed current number of axis words and some additional commands in the middle of the code that would put each station on pause and then resume, when all stations have reached this "pause" command. I guess that non-standard code is not biggest issue, because those machines either run one code for a long time (so it is worth spending some time to prepare code) or they receive the commands "almost on the fly" from another application; > Whatever this means, there has to be software written to implement it, > and the NML communications is only a small part of that implementation. Yes, that is why I am now looking for a programmer. > If you know CORBA the situation with RCS is analogous. Sorry, this is first time I hear about it :)) 2012/8/7 Joachim Franek <joachim.fra...@pibf.de>: > > > Have a look to > http://www.orocos.org/orocos/applications/krypton BTW today I was pointed to this page: http://www.proview.se/v2/ That seems one very attractive application.
