Re: [Emc-users] Linuxcnc on arm

Sounds great. I spent the last months working on servo drives, in particular to get some hardware easy to work with built from not to expensive parts. Soon I will move to higher level and hopefully be able to contribute something to Linuxcnc. Regards Nicklas Karlsson On Thu, 24 Mar 2016 20:54

Re: [Emc-users] Copying G code files from PC to PC

I've used clonezilla to create a disk image to copy to another hard drive is this how you create the disk image? How do you make a machine boot to a specific disk image? JT On 3/25/2016 1:45 AM, Chris Albertson wrote: > There are many schemes that work. One of my favorites is to not store any

Re: [Emc-users] Copying G code files from PC to PC

Hi, No one mentioned my favorite way, so I will just throw it out there. rsync is a very good way to keep directory trees synced. It's very smart in deciding which files to move over and can deal with failed transfers. rsync is good with push or pull. The trick to make it smooth is to create an a

[Emc-users] Encoder failure

As someone mentioned before a the an axis/joint may/will run away in case of an encoder failure. It would be possible to detect an encoder failure by comparing output signal with encoder signal. A velocity signal may be integrated and do not allow to wander to much or an encoder error will be d
