Re: [Emc-users] Python Component Loading

2008-01-24 Thread John Thornton
Kirk,

There is some info on this page that might help.

http://axis.unpythonic.net/01154705314

What are you considering with the serial port? Just wondering...

 I am interested in the serial port features available in Python. The
 documentation shows how to make a Python component, and run it from
 the halrun command, but not how to run it in EMC. Do you just use
 loadrt My_Python_component count=X like the Comp components?  
 
 The Python component is a script, so could I run shell scripts, or any
 executable file, the same way?

Re: [Emc-users] Need some help - Stepper Mode 2 - HAL - WORKING!

2008-01-24 Thread jcombs
John, Kirk,

Thanks so much for the help.

It was the ctrl_type = v,v,v that was the biggest problem.

I am off and running now with phased motor drivers.

Tonight, I can finish the wiring and then off we go.

If anyone is interested in the .HAL and the .INI files, let me know.  I
didn't want to
clutter up the list.

As a note to the folks that are coding the stepconf utility.  It would nice
to have the
option of setting phased mode vs step/dir for the step interface.  When I
get some
time, I might take a crack at adding that myself.

Thanks, Again.  Jim C

[Emc-users] M64/M65 and M6/M7 commands

2008-01-24 Thread Guelzow, Andreas

I need to activate a patallel port output while the axes are moving.

All commands above stop the movement before output is activated. 

Is there any G/M command that can switch outputs immediately or which
other way to go.

Thanks!
Andreas

[Emc-users] optical probing

2008-01-24 Thread Dave Engvall
Hi,
I'm certain that  by now those of you that take Digital Machinist ,  
Winter 2007 have absorbed the article on
optical probing. The  concept is a no-brainer but my stumbling block  
is linux camera software with the cross-hair.
Does anyone know of a package that will work. I think one wants  
stills at about the  flicker rate but maybe it  doesn't make a  
difference. However, the ability to superimpose the cross-hair is  
critical.

This would be very nice as a pop-up window in emc but I'm willing to  
use another machine if necessary.

Ideas?

Dave

How much memory do you have on that computer?  You need 256 MB 
to get it to work.  If it is short on memory, it can slow to a 
crawl or freeze.

Hit reply?

Seriously, I don't understand the question.  Do you have an email 
program that doesn't have reply?

Thanks for the link, John.

It's part of my quest to develop a connection between EMC and my VFD
through Modbus RTU. My notes so far are here:
