Re: [Emc-users] Running PathPilot on non-Tormach Machines
And I have several CNC machines here for testing. If you guys need someone to test stuff One if them is a linear rail machine that really really feels the lack in the current TP so would be good to see the difference On Thu, 2 Feb 2023, 06:51 John Dammeyer, wrote: > I've just been emailed that my second BoB has been shipped.

Re: [Emc-users] Running PathPilot on non-Tormach Machines
I've just been emailed that my second BoB has been shipped. Once that arrives I have: Pi4 + Mesa 7i92H + 2xBoB + power supplies. I'd also be willing to test, assuming I can be sent an img file to do a stock newbie type installation for an open loop stepper controlled CNC router or a mill. I'd use an existing hal/ini file combination and make whatever changes are required for the Tormach based install. I'd look at using the I/O modeled after the image for the Clearpath CNC https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/acorn_cnc_controller.html But create an image with the components I'm using.
