To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Date: Monday, June 24, 2013, 9:42 AM My first reaction is how could this be necessary? Are they not wanting/able to capture a file to feed to the control? I am having trouble imagining a computer so small or a program so large as to need drip feed. ----- Put LinuxCNC on a system like a BeagleBone with just enough RAM and storage for itself plus a small command buffer. Skip the GUI and anything fancy. Then feed in commands from another system by USB, Ethernet, RS-232 etc. Could be something to replace controllers in vintage CNC systems like an Anilam Crusader II or M without completely replacing the entire system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 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
