Re: [Emc-users] Need help with X200 VFD modbus

Well I spent several hours on this now. I do see the format is wrong, I changed to: loadusr -W wj200_vfd baud=19200 But I've got it on a scope and it's still 9600 baud. And if I change it to "baud=hahahhaha", there's no error for it being a non-number either. Could the wj200_vfd code have

Re: [Emc-users] Need help with X200 VFD modbus

OK, I am unclear on how baud rate gets set. I see the .c code has "void userinit()", but I don't know how that gets called. I had tried "loadusr -W wj200_vfd baud 19200" (kind of random stab) and thought I was setting the baud, but I changed "baud" to gibberish here ("bxyzz") and no error is

Hi, according to http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man9/wj200_vfd.9.html the wj200-wfd component already has a toggle output for use by a watchdog. Then, there's a "watchdog" component: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man9/watchdog.9.html So, your HAL will basically need something like

Re: [Emc-users] Need help with X200 VFD modbus

Not a stupid question at all- I literally didn't do more than I said. I will try this ASAP. Do you know how to handle a "watchdog" that continuously checks whether the VFD is running? Danny Philipp Burch wrote: > Hi Danny! > > On 29.02.2016 08:15, Danny Miller wrote:

It wasn't the recycling, but certain softening compounds in PVC were suspected to cause cancer and reduced by law. This war aimed at children's toys and other playstuff, but hit wire insulation as well (though nobody would use wire insulation for a lolly). Furthermore, machine oil and above

Re: [Emc-users] Stake in ball screw Cincinnati Arrow

A note on German wiring from the early 1990's. At that time the Green Party came in and pushed fro higher recycling. Many manufacturers went with a higher recycled content in their wire insulation to meet the edict. Mercedes Benz was one of the earliest hit by this change. Harness in the W124
