I just ran the mill this evening for a while facing off the two sides of a casting. Tomorrow I'll mount it and run the G-Code to profile the outside and drill the 3 holes. The only odd thing that hasn't happened before is the Pendant stopped working. Given that the spindle on/off also no longer works the biggest fatality so far in this upgrade is the pendant.
Which is one of the reasons I've resisted upgrading. How many days of mucking around will it cost to fix something that wasn't broken other than trying to bring the AMD64 upto the same revision as the Pi4. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: September-15-21 10:57 PM > To: Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC) > Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Safely Upgrading LinuxCNC > > On 2021-09-15 23:29, John Dammeyer wrote: > > I have too much other stuff installed on that PC to want to re-install > > the OS with a new version that included LinuxCNC 2.8. > > > Good point.
