I’m a little confused on how to interface the Cetus gui with Machinekit on my new Linux based development PC on which I have already installed Machinekit as run in place. I’m running on Linux Mint 18.3 with kernel 4.9.98-RT. The Machinekit appears to be running fine and I have down loaded Cetus, MachinekitSDk, QTQuickvcp, Machinekit-Client and free version of QT5 via web install.
I would like to get Cetus working and plan to use as a good starting and learning point to be able to develop in QT. Unfortunately I do not fully understand how to get all the pieces that I down loaded to function as a working system on in my Linux Mint PC right now. It appears to be a somewhat complicated process. My Linux based development PC is attached via a dedicated network to an ACRA milling machine which uses a Mesa pre-programmed 7i80 FPGA interface card. Machinekit running on this PC is connecting to the mesa card and able to get status info from the card inputs via HalShow. I will continue to try to get this PC configured on my own, but does anyone have available some rough information or guide on the best way to get the various pieces that I downloaded talking to each other on the PC? I think that some information that I'm trying to use may not be meant to be used for configuring a PC. After I get everything working on the Linux based PC then I plan to work on my Windows7 based development machine which is not ready to use yet. I plan to use for testing Cetus and other GUI's remotely and also for Qt5 future GUI development work. I have on hand a Raspberry PI-3 and may also use it later for future work as time allows. -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
