Re: [Emc-users] who has used thin client pcs

Aliexpress seems to have lots of fanless mini pc's at modest prices, so that is a possibility. Can you get Advantech products down there? They have been making industrial pc's for many years and have a decent reputation. I think they may be Taiwanese. A quick check on them shows their prices are

Re: [Emc-users] who has used thin client pcs

I use a an HP t5740 with the expansion chassis to run 32bit Open Media Vault 5 as a DLNA video server. The expansion chassis comes with two riser cards (if bought as-new with all the parts, one with a 32bit PCI slot, the other with a PCIe slot which is physically x16 length but is only connected

The version running a 4 core GX-415 processor should be fine for LinuxCNC.  I use Wyse 5020 thin clients on my lathe and router, which use the same SOC. The 2 core version is a bit slow if you are using it with Ethernet FPGA cards. I used one on my lathe for a couple of years and it occasionall

Clearly, I've not been reading in the right place. That 7%  is new info for me. I assume that the 7% is a worst case but I have no idea how someone came up with that figure. I that magnitude of error is common it is a serious fault but I don't  think I've ever seen real errors but then how many

Yes, "Mini ITX" is just a shape and a standard for where mounting holes go but it is a shape that is sold to a cost-sensitive market where low power ususage and low cost maters. The ITX market is large enough that mass production drives prices down. So it is a good fit to hobby-level machine cont

My experience in my mill has been pretty good I can machine a 100 mm circle within 0.003mm of true round. Measured as close as I can with mitoyo mics. (I'm a full time machinist) This is posting radius arcs On Fri, 11 Feb 2022, 08:49 dave engvall, wrote: > Clearly, I've not been reading in t

These aren't really thin, but they are pretty nice. They are fanless and use the case as a heat sink. Made in China. Qotom Computers Kenneth Lerman 55 Main Street Newtown, CT 06470 On Wed, Feb 9, 2022 at 7:02 P

Re: [Emc-users] IJK vs R

That code is testing the 180 degree issue, which is not usually a major problem as far as accuracy is concerned. Try using a R value of 5.002, instead of 5.0025. In this case the arc does not technically fit. Some controllers throw a fit and some quietly fudge the radius to fit. I think LCNC fu

Re: [Emc-users] who has used thin client pcs

I used similar fanless boxes in my plasma and mill, though they are a different make and only have 2 Ethernet ports. They seem to work pretty well, though the one in my mill sometimes has display issues in cold weather. Leaving it to warm up for a couple of minutes then rebooting fixes the prob

HP has sold some desktop tower PCs that look like they're a regular tower from the front but around back where the expansion slots and power supply should be there's just blank metal, some even have pieces of metal riveted in those places. They took standard ATX case parts and substituted plain

When I run the test suite there are a number of tests that seem to hang.  It could be I am just impatient. For example: tests/linuxcncrsh-tcp tests/linuxcncrsh tests/mdi-queue/oword-queue-buster Should I expect all the tests to run? I running this under Ubuntu 21.10 on an older laptop, Intel
