[02:31:49] <chopper79> Hello, Everyone. I need a little help here. I can not seem to get master to launch. Every time try to launch 2.6 I get 2.5 running. Any help on this please?

[02:40:31] <chopper79> If I ls when in /linuxcnc-dev/scripts$ the list shows rip-environment but in a bold text.
[02:40:56] <chopper79> does the bold text mean anything?

[02:42:41] <Valen> try ./linuxcnc-dev/scripts/rip-environment
[02:42:56] <Valen> it probably *is* a script to run emc in place
[02:43:13] <Valen> (so not cd ./foo just ./foo
[02:43:26] <Valen> or just cd linuxcnc-dev/scripts/

[02:48:00] <chopper79> Well I selected a config from the camples and launch failed
[02:48:04] <chopper79> samples
[02:49:35] <chopper79> hal:46: Pin 'axis.0.motor-pos-cmd' does not exist
[02:49:35] <chopper79> Must be a naming error since I am trying JA3.
[02:50:08] <chopper79> I read somewhere that JA3 uses a different naming methode for axis/joints
[02:51:36] <chopper79> Anyone have any insight on the JA3 branch and if there is a log somewhere about changes needing made to launch a sample config?

[10:56:01] <archivist> some are fixing stuff by reflowing the solder in an oven

[11:44:44] <Jymmm> looking....
[11:52:39] <Jymmm> Is there any CAD programs that will do this for me?
[11:55:14] <archivist> cad.... yes the sheet metal bit of solidworks, but it is not rocket science to do in a spreadsheet
[11:56:22] <Jymmm> For me, it might as well be. Is sheet metal an addon? I have an ancient SW2004 version.
[11:57:02] <archivist> and in this case is such a large radius that one could just use the radius to middle of the arc and work out the circumference
[11:59:08] <archivist> but just provide drawing to the manufacturer, they will know what to do
[12:01:19] <Jymmm> I need to prototype it here on the laser first, does SW come with sheetmetal or is it an addon?
[12:02:16] <archivist> I am too lazy to log onto your copy to find out if it came with it
[12:02:52] <Jymmm> It's not even installed, that's kinda why I asked.
[12:03:24] <archivist> ffs, go look on your cd
[12:03:52] <Jymmm> I rarely ever use it, I dont know enough about SW to know whats inclouded to not.

[12:23:54] <Tom_itx> you looking at material loss in the bend or what angle to bend them to straight?

[12:24:29] -!- jthornton [jthornton!~john@184.21.192.48] has joined #linuxcnc
[12:24:33] <Tom_itx> we did bend allowance for aluminum sheet for hydropress forms and that angle was around 2-3 deg
[12:24:54] <Jymmm> mostly where to put the tabs along the length of the material
[12:25:14] <Jymmm> (they have to align to another part)
[12:25:20] <Tom_itx> i haven't dealt with roundbar bending
[12:25:31] <Tom_itx> i'm sure there are formula for it
[12:25:52] <archivist> not a lot of difference to sheet methinks
[12:26:09] <Tom_itx> https://www.google.com/search?q=roundbar+bend+allowance&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[12:26:19] <Jymmm> archivist: I think sheetmetal will be fine too.
[12:26:41] <Tom_itx> http://www.engineersedge.com/wwwboard/posts/14584.html
[12:27:00] <Tom_itx> Think of it this way. When you bend material, the outside of the bend causes a stretching of material. The inside of the bend actually shrinks the material. At roughly 1/3 the way through the material from the inside of the bend, you will have a neutral area where the material neither stretches or is compressed.
[12:27:13] <Jymmm> But as I may have to create different sizes, I'd liek for the drawing to adjust for it automatically, reoving the fubar factor
[12:27:49] <Jymmm> as well as adjust the mating part automagically

[22:48:37] <false> hey guys
[22:50:30] <false> Think I (well not me) killed my 7i64 :(

[22:58:09] <andypugh> How is that possible?
[22:59:05] <andypugh> Unless you fed it more than 50V it should be tough as boots.
[22:59:32] <false> Well, someone was tiding up the cabinet with the pc and part of the 24vdc circtuit powered. Long story short: upper pins of jumper w5 and or w6 got 24v
[22:59:40] <false> lights out
[23:00:00] <andypugh> Ah. I can see that 24V on logic pins would be bad
[23:00:02] <false> for a split second, but it seems dead

[23:00:12] <false> jep
[23:00:31] <andypugh> PCW: Likely to be fixable?
[23:00:53] <false> I think the pic is broken, but beyond that I dont know
[23:02:16] <false> Some quick examination leads me to believe the jumpers connect to the PIC . But PCW probably knows where to look, or just throw it away and order a new one.

[23:03:03] <false> Which would suck because I just got the ATC to function like I wanted :(
[23:04:26] <andypugh> I wonder if a generic replacement PIC can be re-programmed?

[23:05:36] <false> I would need the program from PCW, which I could imagine he'd wanna keep to himself, and I wouldn't blame him.
[23:06:49] <false> The PIC itself I can order, but maybe this whole situation has compromised the reliability of the card, in which case I will order a new one
[23:06:53] <PCW> Its a ~$2.00 pic but you would need a PIC programmer
[23:07:08] <false> The programmer I have
[23:08:05] <andypugh> Maybe replace the PIC to keep things going, and also order a replacement? Then you have a dev-quaility board
[23:08:19] <PCW> as long as nothing else was damaged, let me see where W5/W6 go
[23:08:21] <false> PCW: could this have damaged anything else, or would the PIC be the only thing that's damaged
[23:08:36] <false> beat me to it :P
[23:10:17] <PCW> unfortunately W5 and W6 go to the CPLD
[23:10:33] <false> :(
[23:11:16] <PCW> I can send a JEDEC file but the chip is more pain to replace than the PIC
[23:12:56] <false> How would I place the JEDEC ?
[23:13:49] <false> Ordering a new board would probably take less time, I would need to order the chip too
[23:14:15] <PCW> You would need a JTAG programmer
[23:16:30] <false> Phow, I have one.... somewhere. But I wouldn't know where to start. Used it back in the day to flash satalite receivers :P

[23:16:50] <false> start searching that is
[23:17:10] <PCW> Probably need one compatible with Xilinx programming software
[23:17:30] <PCW> (I have a PCB for the parallel port one)
[23:18:34] <PCW> you can return it and we can try and fix if its only the CPLD
[23:18:45] <false> Replacing the chip would be no problem, I have a hot air and a stereo. But if i order monday morning I'll have a new one on wednesday.
[23:20:26] <false> I didn't order at mesa directly, I bought it at you dealer in europe (mesanet.eu).
[23:20:48] <false> I'll just order a new one, stupid mistakes happen, but I need the machine running :P
[23:22:53] <false> Thanks for offering to send your files, most companies don't even consider that kind of service!
[23:23:50] <PCW> if you email mei can return the JEDC file and hex for the PIC
[23:23:52] <PCW> (probably just the CPLD is fried, but since its used by the PIC to
[23:23:53] <PCW> read jumper settings, the PIC probably wont communicate)
[23:24:35] <PCW> (should you want to fix it in your spare time)
[23:24:52] <false> I will do that, these things come in very handy
[23:25:39] <false> Currently only have 4 outputs left, and all the inputs are taken.
[23:27:01] <false> Can I PM you on the forum for you email?
[23:28:25] <false> Come to think of it, I can combine this with another order I have to place there anyway, saves me shipping.

[23:51:44] <saki`> okay
[23:51:46] <saki`> so
[23:52:34] <saki`> what's the cheapest CNC i can make that has very high resolution and does a 6 x 6 inch area?
[23:53:10] <saki`> i want to use it to make molds to cast silicone models out of
[23:54:29] <saki`> if i have a say 500 to 600 dollar budget
[23:54:35] <jdh> heh
[23:54:44] <jdh> molds out of plastic?
[23:57:28] <saki`> yeah sure
[23:57:50] <saki`> tooling board i think its called
