There are a lot of email threads on the web about issues with the TB6560
board and how they can be fixed..by cutting traces, changing parts, etc.
I'm not interested in trying to work past built in design flaws.
Once I get these drives I'm going to hook them up to a motor and a load
and let them
Hello All
I would like to run Touchy on the resoltution 1024x600.
I found this sentence in the file "design.notes" in the Touchy src
directory: "Configurability of font sizes makes it work with any screen
resolution."
Where can I configure this to fit to the above mentioned resolution?

Easy :)
I have home switches for each gantry joint. Main thing is to set
Home_sequence to be the same for both of these joints and set equal home
search and latch velocities.
Care to share your configuration files?

But since there are no daughter cards with less servo outputs this is the

Hello everybody.
I'm about to buy a 6i25 with a 7i77 to use with a machine that I'm
retrifitting.
I know Andy worked with the 6i25 and it works well using the 5i25 firmware,
but I don't know if anybody has tried this board with the 7i77 and LinuxCNC.

In the standard, stupid way: gantrykins, [AXIS_*]HOME_SEQUENCE are the
same for the two gantry joints, a single home switch on one side of the
gantry is used for both joints.

I'd also want to say thank you to everyone taken part in the integrators
meeting event especially to the hosts Christian and Andy :)
It was really interessting to get to know other people working and

That is a pretty cost effective stepper drive and if you blow it up you
only lose one axis not the whole board like a TB6560.

Hey guys,
I have seen your pictures and movies of the Integrator Meeting 2013 in
Stuttgart.
Sorry - I couldn´t this weekend cause of my little baby who ist actualle
12 weeks old.
But when I saw the pictures I am really sad I wasn´t able to be there.
Hope we can repeat such a meeting in the near

Last weekend was a great event and I enjoyed every minute of it. Really
