[00:54:28] <kwallace> Is there a chance that a 7i76 Step/Dir daughter board could be modified to have quadrature A B outputs on the Step/Dir pins? My mill has A B input amps for the steppers. I could build a circuit to convert Step/Dir to A B but I'd rather not. Or, I could use general purpose digital outputs.
[00:54:33] <Valen> some of the GMA's have screwed up GL drivers
[00:56:28] <_tjtr33> Valen i think i found it in about:support "Adapter DescriptionVMware, Inc. -- Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 0x300)" wtf!?!?

[00:56:43] <Valen> ?
[00:57:19] <_tjtr33> Valen the driver seems to be VMware's not the Intel driver ( no idea why )
[00:57:25] <Valen> thats kinda odd
[00:57:30] <_tjtr33> yup
[00:57:34] <Valen> and would probably not support GL
[00:57:41] <Valen> whats Dr Google say?
[00:58:22] <_tjtr33> ? i was just about to remove VMware (if possible )
[00:58:42] <Valen> I'm guessing you aren't running vmware on an atom
[00:59:09] <_tjtr33> no, this never had vmware iirc,, a fairly new 12.04 install

[01:07:43] <Tom_itx> gonna make a vertical one?
[01:08:17] <Tom_itx> i borrowed one of those from a friend and pushed the end off it so if you go that route, make sure you beef it up
[01:08:46] <Tom_itx> and if you get it too beefy, it defeats the purpose of having it on the ground
[01:10:02] <skunkworks> kwallace: I know JT-Shop has done modbus to vfd..
[01:11:26] <kwallace> It looks like there is an RS422 port on the 7i76 but only mentions SmartSerial.
[01:11:27] <Tom_itx> JT-Shop, i would also double the large wedge size
[01:11:47] <Tom_itx> if you get stringy wood it helps separate it better

[01:18:15] <Tom_itx> JT-Shop, nice storage idea though
[01:18:52] <Tom_itx> will the inner strap retainer be threaded?
[01:19:18] <JT-Shop> a pin goes in the hole
[01:19:26] <Tom_itx> that kinda looks like a weak spot
[01:19:57] <Tom_itx> those clevices are typically backed by a triangle
[01:20:00] <JT-Shop> my calculations show 8x the force
[01:20:23] <JT-Shop> ah yea there are some small bracing missing yet
[01:20:26] <Tom_itx> what about bending force on the bracket
[01:21:24] <Tom_itx> i started out with a single wedge stack and ended up making it alot wider near the back
[01:22:03] <JT-Shop> I figured I could put some spreaders behind the triangle blocks
[01:22:55] <Tom_itx> you're always gonna have some knotty wood that doesn't wanna cooperate
[01:23:29] <Tom_itx> it splits a helluva lot easier when it's frozen too
[01:23:36] <JT-Shop> I might extend the outside part down some to double up
[01:23:58] <JT-Shop> the table will be about 24" off the ground with a log lift

[01:57:02] <AR_> yup
[01:57:08] <r00t4rd3d> put it on the backside
[01:57:20] <AR_> you mean flip the whole thing around?
[01:57:28] <r00t4rd3d> that is a shit ton of travel also
[01:57:32] <AR_> i could just turn that around
[01:57:35] <AR_> the whole thing
[01:57:41] <AR_> yeah i was thinking
[01:57:47] <AR_> that is a 6x8 plate on there now
[01:58:04] <AR_> right now i'm just trying to get it laid out
[01:58:31] <r00t4rd3d> you really only need like 3-4 inches of travel on your zaxis

[02:03:22] <AR_> then i can countersink the bolt heads
[02:03:58] <pcw_home> skunkworks: stepgen quadrature mode just runs 4 times faster than step/dir
[02:03:59] <pcw_home> mode so you have to set your scale to 1/4 what it would normally be
[02:06:56] <kwallace> pcw_home: Does the 7i76 generate the step/dir signals on board or are they generic output pins?
[02:07:31] <pcw_home> generic so they can be PWM/step/dir or whatever
[02:08:35] <kwallace> I want A B signals for my h-bridge stepper amps and wondered if I should order the 7i76 kit.
[02:08:59] <pcw_home> just 5V buffers/inverters so you have differential 5V outputs
[02:09:51] <r00t4rd3d> Im making my new zaxis out of oak and purpleheart :D
[02:09:53] <pcw_home> Are these just 1/2 step bipolar drivers?

[02:11:34] <r00t4rd3d> so does your mom

[02:12:12] <ReadError> r00t4rd3d: indeed, hence, me.
[02:12:36] <pcw_home> Hmm do Oak and Purpleheart have the same moisture coefficient of expansion?
[02:13:33] <pcw_home> kwallace: A Hardware stepgen may be overkill for a 1/2 step driver

[02:15:49] <pcw_home> And if you have enough I/O, a standard parallel port breakout
[02:15:50] <pcw_home> (instead of the 7I76) is an option if you need a hardware stepgen

[02:20:34] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, in short.. no
[02:21:31] <pcw_home> Ahh look li cocobolo is really good (though I think thats one of the toxic ones)
[02:21:37] <pcw_home> look like
[02:21:50] <kwallace> pcw_home: I'm using PCI parports for stepping now, but I am using a Pluto for fast PWM to the spindle VFD, although I'd like to go to Modbus for that. A fast encoder counter would be needed for a future spindle encoder, but I suppose I could get by with the Pluto. The 7i76 seems pretty convenient if I can use the step/dir terminals as AB.
[02:22:13] <r00t4rd3d> I guess purpleheart is pretty toxic also but I didnt get any ill effects from the dust.
[02:22:29] <pcw_home> sure its just a stepgen mode parameter
[02:23:18] <pcw_home> I think a lot of tropical hardwoods are toxic (full of bug killers)
[02:24:01] <elmo40> hey people. I am trying to get a computer and printer into my service truck.

Going uber high-tech with tablet and thermal printer would be sweet... but I could live with a stationary computer(touch screen is nice but kb is fine, too) and an inkjet printer. Any ideas how to go about doing this? wh
[02:24:51] <kwallace> pcw_home: I got the feeling that the 5i25 had some sort of communications link to the 7i76 to support the 7i76 specific functions.
[02:25:17] <pcw_home> just the 24V I/O
[02:25:44] <pcw_home> well and the Spindle analog
[02:26:26] <pcw_home> and the remote I/O can handle 2 MPGs as well
[02:29:00] <tjtr33> dm510 doesnt play well with webgl, ffox17 or 18, tried chromium: some webgl ok, tried chrome beta25, others ok, mostly not. conclusion: dm510 POS for webgl.
[02:29:38] <pcw_home> the step/dir outputs and encoder inputs and serial port I/O are buffered
[02:29:40] <pcw_home> but direct so can be re-purposed with different firmware on the 5I25
[02:29:58] -!- skunkworks has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:32:19] <kwallace> I guess the biggest difference between the 7i75 and 76 is that the 76 has differential terminals for each 5i25 signal?

[02:34:31] <skunkworks> kwallace: so you're running h-bridge with quadrature?

[02:34:51] <kwallace> Yes.
[02:35:05] <skunkworks> Of .0005?
[02:35:42] <skunkworks> so would the mesa stepgen only give you a resolution of .002?
[02:36:11] <kwallace> http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/Shizuoka/Driver%20Schematic1.jpg
[02:37:13] <kwallace> No, but if my steppers could keep up, I could do those half steps faster.
[02:37:14] <skunkworks> yikes!
[02:38:13] <skunkworks> is that the drive that people are always replacing the ouput transistors in?
[02:39:26] <kwallace> I haven't had any trouble, but they do whine a bit.
[02:39:55] <pcw_home> skunkworks: the hostmot2 manual is not very clear, the steps are generated
[02:39:56] <pcw_home> evenly but at 4 times the normal rate (so you need to set the scale appropriately)

[02:40:41] <pcw_home> (in quadrature mode)
[02:41:44] <pcw_home> 7I75 is just an I/O protector so universal but unbuffered/un-isolated
[02:41:56] <skunkworks> ok - as long as you guys understand it ;) ..
[02:42:31] <kwallace> The steps don't come in fours do they?
[02:42:40] <pcw_home> No
[02:43:04] <skunkworks> heh - good. (that is how I was understanding it...)
[02:44:30] <pcw_home> the normal stepgen steps when the accumulator over/underflows
[02:44:32] <pcw_home> the quadrature one uses the top 2 bits of the accumulator to generate
[02:44:33] <pcw_home> the gray code so the 'edge' rate is 4 times step/dir
[02:46:41] <pcw_home> You can generate normally scaled quadrature with the
[02:46:43] <pcw_home> table mode but that was never supported by the driver
[02:52:32] <kwallace> So, to add the quadrature output the existing counter code was tweaked. Kinda makes sense because quadrature isn't used that often and the only side effect is the scale value needed to flush the lower bits.
[02:57:33] <kwallace> Oops, my drivers are not h-bridge but unipolar.

[07:39:31] <Valen> damn
http://www.challengecoinsrus.com/coin-pricing.htm/
[07:39:34] <Valen> thats pretty cheap
[07:39:40] <Valen> I really must look into casting
[07:39:46] <Valen> or do you think those are stamped?
[07:40:04] <toastydeath> no way those are stamped for those prices
[07:40:08] <toastydeath> die cast
[07:40:31] <Valen> filling in 7 colours though is pretty dang decent
[07:40:42] <Valen> that must be CnCed somehow
[07:42:28] <Valen> yeah, they have hollow bits too
[07:42:37] <Valen> how hard would die-casting be in the home shop?
[07:42:55] <toastydeath> i've never seen anyone attempt die casting
[07:45:06] * Valen knows little of it
[07:45:39] <toastydeath> you have an actively heated/cooled mold steel die
[07:45:45] <toastydeath> and you inject metal into it, like plastic injection
[07:46:02] <toastydeath> usually a low melting point thing that won't stick to your alloy
[07:47:34] <toastydeath> the gating and all that shit is convoluted because it's metal, you can't just be like "oh hey it's flexible"

[10:55:25] <DearLeader> I want to do pcbmilling mostly, but i just found out i can use this CNC to do pretty much anything
[10:56:00] <DearLeader> I just began with a sharpie mrker and drew a hello world
[10:56:13] <cpresser> take a look at pcb2gcode
[10:56:44] <Valen> Also look at whats involved in holding the PCB perfectly flat

[16:52:19] <mrsun> hmm how the heck strong would antibacklash nuts on a mill be ?
[16:52:53] <mrsun> i cannot move the table by hand when i have it tightened to not rock ... but the motor does it without a problem ... an antibacklash nut is supposed to push the table towards one side of the threads right ?
[16:55:58] <kwallace> I would think of it as two equal nuts, one for each direction. On acme screws, any preload from adjusting the nuts will create a lot of friction. The only practical solution is to use ball screws.
[16:56:51] <mrsun> ye but do not want to throw alot more money on this little mill :/ so hoping on some cheaper homebrew solution =)
[16:57:01] <mrsun> using backlash comp in linuxcnc atm
[16:57:12] <mrsun> works quite nice but table can move due to cutting forces

[16:58:59] -!- ravenlock [ravenlock!~ravenlock@enlightenment/developer/ravenlock] has joined #linuxcnc
[17:04:34] <kwallace> That's the problem with having that feature available, it gives people the impression that it solves backlash problems. The only way to get rid of backlash is to get rid of the source. There are other low friction roller type screw systems, but they take up more room. When I get time, I'd like to try making ball screws for a no or low cost solution, then use screw error compensation to to fix position errors.
[17:06:22] <mrsun> kwallace, yeah but ballscrews are "expensive" etc .. specialy if there is limited room and you have to go for miniature =)
[17:08:08] <kwallace> Some people have made Delrin nuts or filled nuts with Turcite or Moglice to lower the acme friction.

[22:32:29] <tjb1> I hope the president does push that bill through using his power, I am curious to see what happens
[22:33:00] <ReadError> what bill?
[22:33:00] <tjb1> The whole senate, congress and government will get changed real fast ;)
[22:33:33] <tjb1> I just read that Biden was going to Obama with proposals that they say he will just enact himself
[22:33:52] <t12> gun control thing?
[22:33:56] <tjb1> Yeah
[22:34:24] <Valen> i figure its probably not going to make much of a difference
[22:34:31] <ReadError> whats the bill?
[22:34:36] <ReadError> ban high capacity mags?
[22:35:01] <tjb1> NY already pushed one through

[22:42:09] <t12> http://www.reuters.com/news/pictures/slideshow?articleId=USRTR3CGH2#a=1
[22:42:13] <t12> check out that weirdness
[22:42:31] <tjb1> That doesn't matter
[22:42:39] <tjb1> too many people in congress worrying about $$$$$$
[22:44:50] <t12> i remember reading an article a while ago
[22:44:53] <t12> i wish i could find it again
[22:45:02] <t12> which more or less said that the two political angles are
[22:45:16] <t12> last dish effort not to crashland the whole nation
[22:45:38] <t12> and the try as best a landing as possible
[22:45:41] <t12> i phrased that totally wrong
[22:45:56] <t12> it came down to a doubledown or accept that its over gracefully
[22:46:42] <Valen> I think america needs to realise it has finished its growth due to population growth and work out how to be stable
[22:46:55] <Valen> grow through productivity increases, not more people
[22:47:57] <Valen> australia is in the same boat (or at least should be, we are heading for a wall, stupid politicians)
[22:48:01] <t12> population control is pretty hard
[22:48:24] <Valen> in .au it'd be pretty simple, reduce inbound immigration from ~250k per year to 150k
[22:48:25] <t12> theres def not going to be productivity increases here
[22:48:34] <t12> current new workforce generation isnt that good
[22:48:38] <t12> and the next one likely wont be either
[22:49:02] <tjb1> I know how to fix congress, lower the salary to around $50k
[22:49:04] <t12> the main thing the US needs to do is accept that most people arent gonna be 'productive members of society'
[22:49:08] <t12> and adjust accordingly
[22:49:13] <Valen> I think there could be if rather than everybody working to scrape the minimum out and then dispose of it people worked on stuff that was going to last a lifetime
[22:49:26] <t12> and by arent going to be, i mean shouldnt even be expected to be
[22:49:50] <tjb1> the countries that have been on top for a while will never expand when places like china ignore all rules
[22:49:50] <Valen> I had an alternate system of government for my space station
[22:49:51] <t12> its really hard to beat replacement economics
[22:49:58] <t12> i think the problems are mainly political/cultural
[22:50:04] <t12> esp regarding economy and jobs
[22:50:17] <tjb1> The US cant compete with China because they don't follow the rules we do
[22:50:43] <tjb1> They dont care about emissions
[22:50:49] <tjb1> or wages
[22:50:52] <Valen> basically communism doesn't work and capitalism doesn't either the only answer is a mix of both. I suggest that "taxes" be paid in the form of community service
[22:51:05] <Valen> actually tjb1 china is doing more "green" work than the USA
[22:51:11] <Valen> roughly on par with .eu
[22:51:28] <Valen> they are throwing hundreds of billions into forrests/nature and green power

[22:52:43] <tjb1> Foxconn and the others keep getting in trouble for child labor
[22:52:52] <Valen> back to my economics. Basically people should spend the equivalent of 1 day a week doing work on infrastructure and food generation, in return you are given a basic house/apartment, food and internet. If you want more stuff go do your really rather free market stuff
[22:53:14] <Valen> child labour is a different kettle of fish
[22:53:31] <tjb1> If they are breaking child labor, do you think they are following any of the other laws?
[22:53:41] <tjb1> They are whole campuses
[22:53:52] <Valen> oh probably
[22:54:01] <Valen> they are improving though
[22:54:07] <DaViruz> they can print nice brochures saying they do
[22:54:21] <tjb1> They are improving because places like Apple and Samsung are forcing them :P
[22:54:21] <DaViruz> maybe even invite a tv team to some model city
[22:54:25] <Valen> mainly because the govt doesn't like the workers getting poisoned by dumping crap into the rivers
[22:54:56] <Valen> they are also firing up more nuke plants than anybody else, germany the daft bastards are planning on shutting all theirs down
[22:55:00] <Valen> that will do wonders for Co2
[22:55:25] <DaViruz> that was a real setback :/
[22:55:34] <tjb1> Ive bought stuff on ebay with free shipping where they paid more to ship it than I paid for the item….explain that
[22:55:42] <DaViruz> we decided back in 1988 to shut down ours though so i can't really complaine
[22:55:46] <Valen> tjb1: called a loss leader
[22:55:52] <DaViruz> we haven't actually done so yet though..
[22:56:01] <Valen> I'm hoping thats what happens DaViruz
[22:56:02] <t12> yeah china ebay is amazing
[22:56:17] <tjb1> But this is ebay
[22:56:26] <t12> the counterargument regarding emissions though
[22:56:32] <tjb1> They sell nothing but garbage, I dont see how that can lead to a sale of better products from them
[22:56:43] <t12> is that really, most leading nations were just as shitty to the environment
[22:56:56] <t12> but now that they're on top, they want to cut competition out via env sanctions
[22:57:00] <Valen> perhaps you are over estimating the cost of the good and underestimating the cost of the postage
[22:57:12] <Valen> didn't some river in USA catch fire not that long ago?
[22:57:30] <t12> i think the reality is noone is going to control 7b peoples emissions
[22:57:43] <t12> we'll burn every drop of oil we can get our hands on, until we cant
[22:57:48] <Valen> I really need to pull my finger out and invent fusion power
[22:58:50] <tjb1> t12: thats not what I am saying though, not talking about the environment so much as the fact that companies in the US, Europe and other areas have to be compliant with the emission laws where I bet most of them in China aren't following so they are making product cheaper than anywhere else
[22:59:00] <tjb1> The US will never improve when it is like that
[22:59:02] <t12> oh
[22:59:03] <t12> yeah

[23:06:24] <Valen> my "jail system" works thusly
[23:07:03] <Valen> step 1 you go into criminal town, drugs and anything goes, we will air drip rice and vitamin pills into criminal town

[23:07:24] <Valen> and any drug busts we make outside we will also deliver
[23:07:33] <Jymmm> It's punishment, not a day spa
[23:07:39] <t12> it shouldnt be punishment
[23:07:42] <Valen> step 2, if you decide you want to leave criminal town, you go to school
[23:07:50] <t12> what are you gonna do punish someone their whole life and then they die and the point of the punishment is?
[23:07:54] <tjb1> They shouldnt have cigarettes, tv or gym use
[23:07:58] <t12> the goal shold just be to keep them from causing trouble to everyone else
[23:08:06] <Valen> you live in a dorm, you get up, keep clean and learn a skill
[23:08:10] <tjb1> they knew the laws, shouldnt have broken them
[23:08:13] <t12> if that takes cigs tv and some weights
[23:08:14] <t12> thes fine
[23:08:17] <t12> thats
[23:08:25] <Valen> break the rules and you go back to criminal town for x months
[23:08:54] <Valen> you can only leave "jail" once you have learnt a useful skill and shown you have the ability to function in society
[23:09:30] <Jymmm> They cause more financial burden that most of the crimes they commited. They should be placed into servatude to those they did damage to

[23:10:19] <Jymmm> slave in essense
[23:10:42] <t12> why not just pay the chinese, likely less
[23:10:45] <Valen> generally its because they have no useful skills or ability to see the long term as a viable thing to plan for

[23:29:08] <cradek> health care for prisoners is a hard sell in a country where the working poor don't have it
[23:29:21] <Jymmm> I think they has have it far too easy. Everyone can be a resource, be it picking up a hose to teaching someone else.
[23:29:47] <t12> just because the working poor have it shitty
[23:29:49] <ReadError> cradek: there are always free clinics
[23:29:52] <t12> doesnt mean people in prison should have it WORSE
[23:29:55] <t12> just for 'fairness'
[23:30:01] <t12> how about this
[23:30:05] <t12> the working poor should have it better
[23:30:09] <t12> and leave people in prison alone?
[23:30:12] <Valen> oh btw that's another thing about my jail system, you also have voluntary entry. so you don't need to commit a crime to do it
[23:30:20] <Valen> commit a crime to get in rather
[23:30:31] <ReadError> Valen: there are plenty of cases where innocent people are locked up
[23:30:32] <Jymmm> t12: worse than the person living in the freezing cold while they commited a crime and get clean clothes, showert, and a warm bed?
[23:30:36] <ReadError> only for it to be overturned years later
[23:30:43] <ReadError> DNA evidence and what not..
[23:31:04] <Valen> ReadError: in my system those sort of people could be out in months

[23:31:35] -!- billt has quit [Quit: Page closed]
[23:31:52] <Valen> I think though that a seperate punishment system is needed for people who are functioning members of society who do stupid stuff
[23:31:54] <t12> you gotta try and tease the logic apart here
[23:32:08] <t12> 1: there are people who are working productive members of society who are poor and mistreated
[23:32:16] <t12> 2: there are prisoners who are not working productive members of society
[23:32:20] <Valen> habitual criminals go to criminal town
[23:32:21] <t12> punishing 2 doesnt fix 1
[23:32:26] <Jymmm> Valen: Nah, they should pass down their skills to those that aren't.
[23:32:42] <Valen> that would be a good part of their punishment
[23:33:02] <Valen> I'm talking about things like DUI and bar brawls
[23:33:08] <ReadError> Valen: what i have been saying
[23:33:10] <Valen> or fraud
[23:33:12] <ReadError> there are programs like this
[23:33:21] <Valen> yeah but generally they are crap

[23:33:49] <Valen> and not recognised anywhere and the criminal isn't actually started into a new life they are given a bit of paper and kicked out
[23:34:02] <Valen> they are type 2 people to use t12s terminoligy
[23:34:30] <Jymmm> ReadError: Those could even move on to become vet techs even
[23:34:54] <Jymmm> and I guess even dog walkers make some good money too.
[23:34:54] <Valen> although if somebody rips off several million dollars from retired people, it seems appropriate that they get a university level degree in ethics
[23:35:04] <t12> lol
[23:35:10] <t12> if you're able to steal money like that
[23:35:16] <t12> an ethics course isnt gonna do much
[23:35:38] <Valen> t12 then the 4 hours a day you spend breaking rocks might change your mind ;->
[23:35:39] <Jymmm> Valen: Nah, should have to teach those ppl they ripped off on how NOT to get ripped off, all 1M of em =)
[23:35:47] <Valen> Jymmm: good call
[23:35:58] <Valen> I feel justice should be poetic as well as rapid
[23:36:09] <Jymmm> Justice should NOT be blind
[23:37:24] <ReadError> you have doctors in prision
[23:37:26] <ReadError> prison*
[23:37:30] <ReadError> the talent is there
[23:37:50] <ReadError> sure, they might have prescribed out 500k oxycotin when they where a doctor to folks who didnt need them
[23:37:53] <Jymmm> There ya go.... FREE MEDICAL!
[23:37:54] <ReadError> but they still know medicine
[23:38:25] <t12> however if you s/oxycontin/zyprexa
[23:38:29] <t12> totally chill
[23:38:47] <t12> or insert antipsychotic of your choice
[23:38:51] <ReadError> yea
[23:38:58] <ReadError> thats why kids are all messed up these days
[23:39:01] <t12> seroquel seems very popular
[23:39:17] <t12> seroquel withdrawl might be worse than opiate withdrawl
[23:39:18] <ReadError> their parents where all doped up on drugs that causes birth defects
[23:39:41] <Jymmm> ReadError: They can still be taught to grab a garden hose.
[23:40:00] <Jymmm> pull weeds, etc
[23:40:04] <ReadError> Jymmm: many places do that
[23:40:17] <ReadError> everything in most prisons is inmate maintained

[23:42:09] <ReadError> that still cost money
[23:42:16] <ReadError> you have fees and cost associated with that
[23:42:28] <t12> you dont try and recoup costs of operating prisons
[23:42:32] <Jymmm> Nah, if they can make a $30 cellphone, I'm sure they cna make a $20 people collar
[23:42:34] <t12> otherwise you end up with whats going on in the US
[23:42:43] <t12> where the prison population is essentially a corp workforce
[23:42:48] <t12> with lobbyists trying to get more workers

[23:45:50] <ReadError> the locline stuff is 2.5 so i needed to get that anyways
[23:45:50] <Jymmm> bastards
[23:46:09] <ReadError> well for most stuff like cleaning up workbenches the 1.25 works better imo
[23:46:19] <ReadError> but cleaning the floor 2.5" all the way
