Thanks Chris and John!
I got one axis to home, now. I had a mixture of code bugs and FPGA errors
that were obscuring what was and wasn't working. And, of couse, some
hurried hacks that I had forgotten to go back and fix. Once I test this
a bit more I'll commit the updates.

As a member of the board, I am 100% in favor of PyVCP becoming part of
EMC2.

Now, you suggested me an idea!
The whole in/out thing in interfacing could be helped by shared
memory! The realtime system supports some definitions on this. We just
need to design all the names and their correct placement and agree on
that and it can be moved there! This is much how it is done in

All the EMC development began and continues as a 'private toy' as you
say. And one day there was 1.0 working version that could do lot. So

Hi Jon
I'm with you on the "not broke don't mess with it." I also understand
the pain associated with upgrading when it finally does break. I've had
to discard the old a lot more often than you have probably because I
deliberately break 'em to test. I've found the Ubuntu/EMC2 to be much
more r
Hi Mario
I do appreciate a fast computer for EMC development. I've played quite
a bit with these mini ITX boards for machine controls. I've got EMC2
2.0.5 running on one here that claims something less than 14 watts power
consumption. I need to do some testing on it's ability to handle
real-t
Hi Anders
I am probably not typical of the "almight board" but I tend to encourage
experimentation in most any direction seen to be of value by
users/developers. The board tends to fall out on the evolutionary side
when it comes to development in this project. As we progress we still
need to ke

Yes. But I don't know how to program a bidirectional slider or other
widget yet. Maybe someone else can help ?

Especially with 60% packet loss.
The extension.emc file is a proposed command file that would be
processed on program load and NC code would be translated from and
into according to definitions in that file. thinggs in [] are
parameters
