[Emc-developers] Getting started hacking Axis GUI?

2010-09-16 Thread Colin Kingsbury
I have some very specific ideas about what I would like in my GUI, and rather than starting yet another GUI from scratch, I thought I'd try to see if I could bend and hammer Axis into what I want. Some of what I want to change is simple taste/design stuff--I want some buttons bigger and in differen

[Emc-developers] Error running userspace python HAL component in Axis

2010-09-23 Thread Colin Kingsbury
Hi, I am trying to build a custom control panel that talks to HAL through a serial interface using pyserial. I have a Python program that runs fine from a HAL prompt (i.e. with halrun). It loads and reports its pins as expected. However, if I try to add it to the custom_postgui.hal, so that it loa

Here is an open-source Arduino/AVR-based 3-axis step/dir controller that takes G-code inputs directly: http://dank.bengler.no/-/page/show/5470_grbl?ref=mst And the source: https://github.com/simen/grbl Strip out the g-code interpretation and let EMC take care of that ---

Grr... Meant to say, strip out the g-code interpretation and let EMC take care of that and you might end up with a pretty nice little system. On Sun, Dec 19, 2010 at 1:58 PM, Colin Kingsbury wrote: > Here is an open-source Arduino/AVR-based 3-axis step/dir controller that > takes G-code

Since I started posting my Arduino-EMC interface work I'm getting an email every week or so from someone asking how to use this to do step generation. I've generally given the WC Fields "go away kid, you bother me" reply but at some point my day-job "if the users keep asking for it maybe I should l
