Oh and just to add to the confusion, the doc seems to match motion.c found at
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/master/src/emc/motion/motion.c
for example from motion.c:

Gentlemen,
My current attention to the project is driven by my desire to have 5 axis
cutter diameter compensation in LinuxCNC.
I am now 67 (soon to be 68) years old and have retired. I sold out of MPM
in 2013. I had a shop for 5 years. I closed the shop in November of 2019,

I've returned to playing with the BeagleBone Black and Xylotex Cape to make it
match the MESA 7i92 pins on the DB-25. I've run into issues with naming of
pins in the HAL file.
Is there something newer than this?

I have a encoder card that outputs 12v to the encoder that I have (which is
also a 12 v encoder) but would like to split the encoder pulses off to my

The information helps me to understand the flow of information through the

It may turn out to have been dangerous information as I see a LOT of
things/items that need to be addressed.
I will talk about the items in future emails. :)

There are companies that regrind and reball ballscrews. One I looked into
claimed they could grind rolled ballscrews to be as precise as ground screws.
Some ballscrews have every other ball undersized to further reduce friction,
but it also reduces load capacity. Replacing the spacer balls

One more idea. Move the nut one foot to the left so that it rides on the
unworn part of the screw. Then use a one-foot-long spacer to connect the
nut to the machine. You do lose one foot of travel.
About Andy's idea of not using a spring between the two nuts: That works

Spring loaded zero backlash nuts on lead screws work ok for a while for light
loads, but they do still wear out rather quickly and cause problems when they
do. Some of the cheaper poorer designed ones will back off the spring when
moving under load in one direction causing slop and lost

Not always a spring. You can create a preloaded pair by simply
screwing them into each other and locking the angular arrangement.

That would fix the issue too. They use two nuts with a spring between
them. It is really the same concept as oversized balls. In both cases,
the balls ride on

Primitive in this context would mean 'most basic', 'lowest level'.

I think that, in this context, it is referring to realtime code (written in C).

What is the definition of primitive code in this context?
Let me know if this is something I can search the internet to learn.
