[Emc-users] Is this a palin bearing Logan lathe?

This looks a bit too good to be true, but...

[Emc-users] BB-View can be used as display and touchscreen for LinuxCNC ?

Hi everybody , I found now that there are available the new capes BB-View composed by an LCD and resistive touchscreen. From the presentation was not clear to me if this LCD became the main Linux display or it is a complete different display used only for special applications. Some data at

I can't tell if you figured out how to change the boot order or not, but just in case and for anyone else with this issue, here is a link which will tell you several ways of doing this. http://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order Probably the quickest is to edit /e

Re: [Emc-users] LinuxCNC on Ubuntu Precise 12.04 with RTAI

Hi I did a clean install of lubuntu 12.4 had the same problem with Grub the rtai kernal was 4th on the grub list which was soon sorted. Thankyou for the work you have done on giving us this upgrade it works perfectly on my home built mill. Is it my imagination but my stepper motors seem to run

Dear, thank you for the answers, I'll check for hide pin I think I have latest version available 2.5.3. I finished debugging my program and find out that all modbus parameters are deleted from clp file if I use --nogui option. I need modbus communication all the time so I'm able to adjust servo dr

Re: [Emc-users] Combining two parallel motions to extend axis range?

I saw this discussed once or twice in irc or maybe on the mailing lists. I can think of a few ways, 1 separate axes and do some maths in gcode, this may be best because of the differing speeds and responses of the top/bottom on a knee mill. 2 use the scale comp and some interconnection of bottom t
