I've been learning how to use emc's gcode subroutines and found it
useful to write a gui front-end for testing and using single-file
gcode subroutines -- ngcgui.tcl.
Features:
1) Makes entry boxes for subroutine parameters
2) Builds an ngc file for one or more features from (optionally)

I've got a pressure sensor that I'd like to use as a probe. The sensor
has a value from 0 - 1023 based on the amount of pressure applied. The
sensor is read by a microcontroller and the microcontroller can generate
a pwm signal based on the sensor value. I was thinking that EMC2 could
read i

That's backwards from how we usually do it - pwm generally comes *from*

I've been looking through all the realtime components and haven't seen
anything obvious. Is there a component to read a PWM signal in from a

Hi Flo
i have used Solidcam in the past its posts files that it uses are in

My cousin lives very close to that campus and he recently took a TIG
welding class there for fun. He said that facility is really nice and
seems to very current regarding industrial technology. Apparently they

I have added some documentation for several of the kinematics components
which did not have manual pages. The documentation is in the
development version of the software, but as far as I know the gantrykins
documentation applies equally to the 2.3.x versions of emc2.

I've been trying to solve it but with no success till now; I tried using

Thanks Jeff,
I've found "gantrykins" component, but I can not find any information
about it
Only I've found are .hal files using "gantrykins" ( like in plasma-thc
and gantry configuration ) but telling nothing about it
Any help will be welcomed

Hi,
I know it´s off topic but maybe there are some SolidCAM users among the
EMC users.
I´m thinking about buying SolidCAM but I´d like to use it to program
several machines which rewire different postprocessors. Now it´s quite
expensive to have these postprocessors generated by a service provid

It would be great if we can get a developer area for 6-8 networked PCs
and internet access, as past years have shown this is a great way to
work together on bugs or new features. Does someone know who to talk to
about that?

Use M62-63 [1] for digital outputs which don't interrupt your motion.
Or use M67 [2] for analog output which doesn't interrupt motion, but this is
only available in the current developement version.

The 2009 show in Wichita, KS worked very well for developers,
but was not associated with a traditional "public" show.
The old CNC Workshop show is no longer held in Camero

No.
M101 is not "realtime" so we have to drain the realtime motion queue,
invoke M101, wait for it to exit, and then start movement again.
