Many thanks to Jeff Epler who answered my questions on Ubuntu and
starting
the configuring of EMC2. I now can program the HAL portion of my project
(at least I have delusions of being able to program HAL). However, when it
comes to hooking it up to a display, I'm once again at a quandry. The
"Configuring EMC2" documentation says to modify a sample config directory
then edit the EMCINI file, referencing chapter 7 of the EMC2 manual. The
EMC2 manual chapter 7 is on HAL internal components.
I see .ini files in the samples (such as mini.ini) which point to a HAL
file. Are these the INI files being talked about? Is there some
instructions somewhere besides chapter 7 of the EMC2 manual?
All I want is a display which will show 3 big numbers (for X,Y,and Z
postions), pushbuttons for each to be zeroed, and a pushbutton to zero all.
OK, I will probably want to grow after that, but if I can just get a DRO
working, I will play around with improvements later.
