No echo of my post. I looked at my mail settings on the ISP but didn't

Well normally the top of the material is Z0... and you use the touch off
button for that as it has nothing to do with homing.
Yes, you can add a PyVCP button to issue a MDI command to set the Z

What you need to figure out is how far the axis moves per rotation. For example
if your

then it is 2
turns per inch. If it is 200 pulses per revolution and 10 microsteps then you

200 x 10 x 2 steps per inch. A

I would gladly sell you my copy of BobCad for 1/2 of what I paid for it and use
the money
toward a copy of SharpCam.

Is there any facility in your software to calcualte feed and speeds for tools?
I find this feature
very helpful.
I have four different commercial cam softwares and one is not very good and one
is much
more expensive but somewhat limiting in areas where I feel I should have
complete control.

I looked at it once but never did try it out. I don't remember why.
Thanks for the link

If your servo drives take step and direction signals then they are just like
steppers to the
software. If it takes 512 steps to go one revolution and it ta

you need to connect your parallel port input (I assume that you are using the
parallel port) to
halui.program.run.true. See the basic hal section of the integrators manual for
the basics of
hal. You can test your setup with a pyvcp button.

If you know nothing about linux then the LiveCD is your best bet.
We need more information than "it failed" to help you. If 8.04 installed then
the LiveCD
should have installed. Try burning a new image on a CD.

In the Hal/Basic Configuration section of the Integrators Manual
Changing the polarity of a signal
If external hardware expects an ``active low'' signal, set the corresponding
-invert
parameter. For instance, to invert the spindle control signal:

Martin,
As a fellow Goldwing owner I had to reply to your question.
1. I dont' know what kind of oil is in my Goldwing (I haven't had to change it
yet).
2. Beer is more important than oil so long as you have oil.
3. I personally like the CNC4PC C1G breakout board and used to use one on my

Dave that is real nice. Can you post a few pictures and a little bit about it
on the EMC
Forum?
Thanks

The 5i23 will not gain you anything for use with EMC.
As stated they do not come with cables. The cables are 50 pin not the more
common ones
used in computers that have like 42 pins or something like that. There are
several daughter
boards including a breakout board. There are pictures on the M
