Thanks John, I will keep this in mind if i need to calculate run times more precisely.
Just out of curiosity how dose LinuxCNC deal with sub routines, if, or, wile, logic ect. I am assuming it reads ahead does the calculations and spit out standard g code to the interpreter where it is then read and converted to hardware commands with a little magic in-between ;-) Why I am asking is I am finding it much easer to program and simulate with Linuxcnc. There are many more functions than the Dynapath Delta 20 control on my Tree J 325 it will only take raw g code more or less and is pretty picky about the formatting. If I can get raw G code from the interpretor into a text file. Then I could probably figure out how to write a post possessor with bash to format it how I need and do a few other checks to make it work until I upgrade to a pc and toss the Dynapath. I have some time on my hands at the moment but no access to my toys other than a laptop and intermittent internet. Now is my chance to learn and play around with the software side of things. One day probable as soon as some thing needs repairing with the Dynapath system I will tear it all out and convert to LinuxCNC and some newer spindle and servo drives. Tryng to do as much home before then as possible. Thanks to all the people that have worked on this great project and made it open for the likes of me to poke, explore, and play around to see how it work and how things have been done by people that know what they are doing? linden On 14-10-09 08:11 PM, John Thornton wrote: > If you need the exact time to run a file create a simulator with the > same acceleration and velocity settings as your machine.
