As I reported some weeks ago, I have a bit of experience now with an LG 1730
touch screen monitor. It seems to work well and is not difficult to
implement.
I am using the mocca GUI (code.google.com/p/moccagui) for this type of
control of EMC2. It is easy to adjust all button sizes to be suitable f

So what do people use for keyboard/mouse?
The other day I was jogging the Z axis down and a bit of swarf caused the
key to stick down. Luckily, the limit switch saved me. That's what I get
for using a $10 keybo
Hi,
I am planning to move to MESA cards to drive my mill. AT present I'm trying to
decide between the 7i43 (parallel) or the 5i20 (PCI). Platform will be Intel
D510MO motherboard coupled with a 32Gb solid state disk.
Regards
Andy

Maybe you look for industrial pc, like from http://www.advantech.com/,
http://www.industrialpc.com/, or maybe server specification like from

I apologize in advance that this is somewhat off topic.
I am beginning to feel a need to have a PC/server, to run Linux, that
would be extremely reliable and long lasting.
I would use it for
1) Holding a personal CVS repository
2) Running a nameserver
3) SSH port tunneling
4) Possibly serving fi

I think that capacitive is another technology? (iPhone etc?)

The Ford Motor Company retired their last PDP11 last year. A sad day.

I worked on the PDP-5 and LINC, then Data General Nova and then PDP-11 and
VAX. Also took a number of courses with punch cards and IBM 360.

I've had good luck with these screens... but I have never used these
screens with Touchy.I put a 19" unit on a commercial waterjet and
the system runs EMC2 with Axis for the front end. It worked out great.
This company has good customer service and has been around for a while.

I don't know about 'industrial' touchscreens. I have a Micortouch CRT with
more than 10 years on it. The screen looks good still. It is running QNX and
the calibration is stable (very good for a CRT). It is just a commercial
monitor in a box that attempts to protect it. The only contamination iss

There is an x11 driver for it and IEI provides drivers, too, but I use U
Hi,
Which is the best choice of touchscreen for industrial usage?
There are several kinds of vandal-proof, water-proof, dust-proof SAW
screens, also different which technology is more useful such as surface
acoustic wave, resistive or infrared?
Thanks.
