Hi all
Got my screen resolution soved - by miracle. I had to move the hardware into
another case, that is more workshop compatible. Fired the PC up and tataa :
kubuntu asked a confirmation whether or not to continue with low res.
So I can go back to my initial task: hot wire cutting.

Tomp,
I answered the question (and I quote "Where can I find information
on using two encoders on an axis?").
I hope the wiki page is found useful.
thanks

Hello,
I attached the emc configuration files of my wire foam cutting machine (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PVuPHD1LpL8 ). I don't know if attachments work
with emc mailing list.

Hi,
again massive snip!
After some fiddling around as far as I can tell homing with limit
switch and index does work with a STG 1 card.
I can stick a .500 dowel in a .500 drill bushing every time.
I'm not at all certain that rehome works ( homing a second or more
time after bring up emc). I e

That's troubling. I think you still have a problem.
When you home, do you do the axes all at the same t
Stuart, the wiki page is indeed useful -- it compliments the hal

Ah! I kick them loose one after the other so all are in the homing
process at once.

Gentlemen,
Both my EMC machine have started faulting on a following error at
seemingly random times.
Dahlih - just this morning faulted during a cut - hadn't done this for
a long time.
cvs updated trunk about four weeks ago
Cinci - had the max FE set to .003 - went to .007 - went t
Stuart did you guys do anything unusual to tune the loop?
Did you ever run the machine without the linear encoder?
meaning can you compare the two techniques directly?
Cheers

Chris,
John Kasunich, Chris Radek, Jeff Epler and Steve Padnos are the
crew that tuned the axis with the dual feedback. I don't believe they
did anything much different than normal tuning as if there was only
one PID and one feedback.
I haven't run the machine much. It is in line to get runni
I am planning to go to the shop tomorrow to finish comping the
Cinci. I will set it up with halscope after I get it comped. I will
post the results.

If it was EXACTLY 0.1000" off, then it sounds like homing to the wrong
turn of the screw

Good lord! First, make sure to notice WHICH axis it is reporting on.
If it is the same axis, that might provide a hint.

I'm sure this is fixed for forward spindle rotation, assuming up to date
hardware, as of CNC Workshop 2007.
I think he has this. But, wha
