I just checked and I was correct for the 2.4.0~pre version all of the
touchy files located in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/touchy are .pyc
files.
Where do I find 2.5_pre to load it on my emc2 computer?
Thanks

You are correct, however when I installed 2.4~pre the touchy python
scripts all had a .pyc extension which as I understand it means they
have been compiled. I am new to python and have not learned as much of
it as I would like to.

Sebastian,
I found where to change the .ngc suffix to .tap in the filechooser.py
file however I am not familiar enough with python to be able to
recompile it into filechooser.pyc. How do I do that?

Good Morning,
I am trying to set up a virtual control panel following the example
shown in 'Jogging With Buttons On A Pendant' listed in the WIKI. I must
be missing something because all I get is errors. I am new to EMC2 so
the learning curve is stil pretty steep but getting better.
Thanks

Hi David,
G92 seems to work, I will try that when I move the EMC computer to the
shop tomorrow and try once again to cut some parts with EMC. Last
weekend I had to switch back to Mach3 because the frustration factor got

Thanks for the help.

Now when I try to start it with touchy I get the following error in the
Debug File Information section of the error log:
Can not find -sec EMC -var NML_FILE -num 1
I am not sure what to do next. It does run with axis for the user
interface.

Did you burn the image to a CD? The EMC2 live CD download is the image
for a bootable CD that you can run EMC2 from. There is an option in the
startup menu to install it to the hard drive or there is an icon on the

It really sounds like you wrote the image file to the CD but did not use
the proper selections is your CD recording software to make it a
bootable disk. You might want to try burning the image to another CD to
make sure or try booting the CD on another computer.
