Everybody in the neighborhood now has a dsl modem with wifi in it and apparently enabled, I can see anywhere from 2 to 4 with a pocket sniffer here. Not trusting to have a wifi on my side of the firewall, I took the chicken way out and ran a hunk of cat5 to the shop, hanging overhead across the yard. Std, out of the un-real box indoor cable from Belden, its been hanging there for 3 years now, good as ever the last time I used adept to update that box. If the weather does kill it, well, cat5 is cheap, at least for me. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen >Wille Padnos >Sent: 09 March 2007 21:13 >To: Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC) >Subject: Re: [Emc-users] StepTimingCalculator.ods > >John Kasunich wrote: >>Andy Ibbotson wrote: >>>Hi All, >>>Does anyone know where I can obtain a copy of > >StepTimingCalculator.ods? > >>>I've followed the link in TweakingSoftwareStepGeneration but only > >seems > >>>to down load a zip file full of .xml files. >> >>[snip] >> >>What kind of system are you downloading it with?
