I originally posted this on IRC, but my network died so I couldn't discuss it.
I was 4 hours into a 3D print using linuxcnc, and the machine crawled to an almost complete stop. My job was still running, but it executed 1 line of gcode, then pausing for 2 seconds. Axis wasn't showing the preview. The DRO read all 0. 'top' showed CPU at about 5% (it normally 80% or more because of axis). While the job was running, I was writing a monitoring application (on windows in c#) that would connect to linuxcncrsh and query the machine status every 5 seconds. I noticed the linuxcncrsh code reuses the nml interfacing code in halui.cc. Does this mean that linuxcncrsh uses the same nml channel as axis? Could this have been my problem? After rebooting, I restarted my job and it completed fine (it took 8 hours :( ) without using linuxcncrsh. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
