[02:23:42] <eric_unterhausen> I have certain people on the email lists set up so their emails are marked as read
[02:23:59] <eric_unterhausen> I should just send them directly to the trash
[02:24:13] <skunkworks> heh
[02:28:59] <Tom_itx> are they copies of the forum or a separate discussion list?
[02:29:07] <Tom_itx> kinda glad i didn't sign up for those
[02:29:22] <eric_unterhausen> Tom, it's not that bad, it's just that some discussions are pretty annoying
[02:29:36] <Tom_itx> yeah i've been on lists before
[02:29:36] <eric_unterhausen> and the one I'm talking about had a legit beginning
[02:29:44] <Tom_itx> 98% go in the trash unread
[02:29:51] <eric_unterhausen> using gmail, you have a lot of control
[02:29:59] <eric_unterhausen> otherwise I wouldn't bother
[02:37:01] <eric_unterhausen> got an email today that indicated that someone finally read my 2 month old email
[02:37:10] <eric_unterhausen> that they had agreed with
[02:37:19] <eric_unterhausen> now it's all a problem

[02:51:32] <skunkworks> dad bought another cnc today... this model http://www.wotol.com/1-matsuura-mc500v2-3/second-hand-machinery/prod_id/86641
[02:51:50] <skunkworks> look - coolant control!
[02:52:31] <cradek> ugh, BT35
[02:52:37] <skunkworks> yah..
[02:52:46] <skunkworks> ebay
[02:53:06] -!- patrickarlt has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[02:53:06] <cradek> nice fast machine
[02:53:07] <eric_unterhausen> at least you have no competition for the 5 auctions of tooling a year on ebay
[02:53:18] <cradek> that's maybe 10% bigger than the MV Jr
[02:53:35] <cradek> very useful size
[02:54:13] <skunkworks> don't think it is a problem.. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR6.TRC1.A0.Xbt35&_nkw=bt35&_sacat=0&_from=R40
[02:54:20] <skunkworks> just need a bit of patience
[02:54:37] <skunkworks> 6000 rpm will be nice
[02:54:48] <cradek> oh, maybe not then
[02:55:01] <cradek> yeah that's a fine speed even for 1/4" tools
[02:55:38] <eric_unterhausen> i see that bt35 has the same annoying problem as nmtb 30
[02:55:51] <skunkworks> don't know if the control works.... but if it doesn't... Mesa!
[02:55:59] <eric_unterhausen> if you search for anything with a 30 in it, a million auctions for sandpaper come up
[02:56:17] <skunkworks> cradek: was your original control a yasnic(sp)?
[02:56:44] <cradek> yes
[02:57:09] <skunkworks> he is not sure if that is the control or not.. but that seems to be a popular one for that machine

[03:07:13] <cradek> BT40
[03:07:17] <skunkworks> ah
[03:08:24] <KimK> skunkworks: Congrats! Now you'll have a machine to make (rescue) parts for the K&T. It's good to have a plan B.
[03:09:16] <skunkworks> Hey KimK - how is it going?
[03:09:47] <KimK> Oh, it's always something. You?
[03:11:02] <skunkworks> heh - busy with work and a little girl that runs now.
[03:12:57] <eric_unterhausen> the running part is great
[03:13:14] <KimK> Wow, out of her scooter basket already, nice. Hey, what's the big picture/executive summary of what's going on with the big software rewrite(s), I'm way behind on email list, etc.
[03:13:15] <eric_unterhausen> would be nice if there was some judgment regarding direction
[03:14:00] <skunkworks> heh - she does pretty good... only runs into walls some times.. (looking one way - running another)
[03:15:00] <skunkworks> KimK: I don't know. There is someone that is re-writing the trajectory planner for deeper read ahead.. I have been playing with that..
[03:16:11] <skunkworks> KimK: I guess I have also been playing with the unified build canidates (xenomai, rtpreempt) mainly testing an ethernet mesa card
[03:18:17] -!- garfong has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[03:18:41] <Tom_itx> skunkworks have you run it on hardware yet?
[03:19:00] <KimK> Were any upgrades ever made to the rtpreemt (if that's what it was?, I remember it was "Seb's debs" at the time) that didn't install quite right for me last time I tried it? Before that, I did get the Xenomai working, but mine is probably outdated by now.
[03:19:45] <KimK> I hope to be getting back to trying the new kernels, etc. soon.
[03:20:39] <eric_unterhausen> rt-preempt is supposed to be much better now
[03:20:58] <eric_unterhausen> and the 64 bit xenomai kernels seem to be stable
[03:21:21] <eric_unterhausen> I didn't try the 64 bit RTAI

[03:21:54] <KimK> Great, good to hear. I'd like to give them all a try.
[03:22:15] -!- gazprom has quit [Quit: leaving]
[03:22:41] <skunkworks> Tom_itx: no - I was just flashing an led with gpio... I had it working with xenomai and rtnet - but that is pretty fiddly.. The rtpreempt will be a nice solution because it pretty much supports all network cards.
[03:23:30] <skunkworks> but there a couple of bugs in the driver that need fixing for the 7i80 anyway. a couple others have it working great
[03:23:50] <Tom_itx> i've got it compiled and ready to try
[03:24:06] <Tom_itx> but i was working on my pendant code so it wouldn't burp in 2.6
[03:25:31] <KimK> I am told that the analog adapter (dumb interface?) for the 7i80 has been delayed? Or is it more delayed than that?
[03:27:02] <PCW> analog adapter
[03:27:06] <PCW> ?
[03:27:55] -!- FreezingAlt has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[03:31:06] <KimK> Hi Peter, thanks for jumping in. Yes, wasn't there to be an interface/adapter to allow the 7i80 to work as a stand-alone amplifier, in classic style? And I was told that that adapter has been delayed? Is that true?
[03:35:28] <KimK> Sorry, I've confused everybody, I didn't mean the 7i80, I meant the 8i20. My apologies. Same question though.

[03:43:49] <eric_unterhausen> I could go for such and adapter
[03:51:32] <KimK> Apparently it was to be called the 8c20 daughter card, according to the 8i20 descriptive text.

[04:05:27] <pcw_home> We dropped the 8C20, better to send the command over a serial link
[04:08:20] <KimK> OK. Maybe better for LinuxCNC, but maybe not so good for standalone or classic uses. Any chance it might come back later on?
[04:10:59] <KimK> Funny this should come up, Fanuc does a similar thing and I was going to ask if the 8c20 would work there, or if you knew anything about Fanuc's (proprietary of course) serial protocol.
[04:13:55] <KimK> Fanuc does have some kind of adapter/test board for their serial input amps, which I am trying to get ahold of, there might be a solution there.

[04:17:40] <KimK> Anyway, it would be great if the 8c20 could be modified and/or reprogrammed to do a similar job on a Fanuc serial amp. If I am able to learn anything on the Fanuc serial protocol, I'll forward the info.

[04:29:27] <RyanS> milled some aluminium of my rather large drill press, 16mm endmill . I think about 2 mm depth of cut. Pretty good seemed to work No problem. Hardly any vibration
[04:30:16] <RyanS> I think it's fine to square stock, but because you lose table alignment. You can't really do accurate work
[04:32:28] <jdh> drill press bearings aren't generally made for side loads
[04:33:15] <RyanS> no, I wouldn't like to try any thing apart from brass aluminium or plastic .
[04:33:16] <eric_unterhausen> and the jacobs taper will let loose, probably fairly soon
[04:33:36] <RyanS> And very shallow cuts
[04:35:17] -!- FreezingCold has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[04:35:47] <RyanS> didnt misalign the chuk but i think er32 collet chuck would be better
[04:36:00] <jdh> and ACB's
[04:36:48] <RyanS> taper bearings?
[04:37:20] <jdh> or that
[04:39:30] <RyanS> Actually the spindle is mt4 (3 would probably be a more appropriate size) . I wonder if the mt4-3 sleeve to mt3 collet chuck is ok or if I need to get a mt4 collet chuck
[04:40:03] <RyanS> The latter would probably be stronger. I guess
[04:40:04] <jdh> the sleeve would probably induce more runout
[04:40:21] <jdh> or, it might compensate!
[04:40:57] <eric_unterhausen> I didn't realize that extruders were so expensive, I'm going to have to go to the local makerspace and print some parts
[04:41:15] <RyanS> But either way is probably going to be strong enough. Surely
[04:44:13] <RyanS> the vfd is rather handy, speed change wise

[13:59:31] <jdh> buy 10, resell
[13:59:38] -!- heathmanc has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[13:59:44] <jdh> usually a nice price break at 5?
[14:00:42] <R2E4> I bought one card for 89 and it costed me 201.00 with shipping and taxes. Customs also I believe is included.

[14:01:48] <R2E4> still, if I bought 10 then it still would only be 120.00 so that would be nice but the problem is I would have to sell for more and people would just go to mesa to get them because they think they would be cheaper.
[14:03:15] <R2E4> I should have bought the 7i80. One card and be done.... 72 IO and its ethernet.

[14:18:47] <pcw_home> 7I72 = 48 sinking outputs

[14:30:15] <pcw_home> 1. take cat 5 cable
[14:30:17] <pcw_home> 2. cut off one end
[14:30:18] <pcw_home> 3. Terminate cut end at screw terminal block using colors in manual
[14:30:33] <R2E4> the 7i84 says a a switching power supply for field power is used. Does it have to be a switching power supply?
[14:31:18] <R2E4> soory, VIN power
[14:31:58] <pcw_home> the 7I84 has a switching supply for its logic you need to supply the 7I84 with 8--32 V for VIN
[14:32:35] -!- heathmanc has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[14:32:48] <pcw_home> the 7I84 is basically the same as the I/O section of a 7I77
[14:33:55] <pcw_home> (though it has the feature that it can split the outputs into 2 banks for different output voltages)
[14:34:32] <R2E4> I can use Pncconf? IT will show up. and one last question.... do I ref it as hm2.5i25.0.7i77.0.0.7i84.0.0.input-01?

[14:36:28] <pcw_home> hm2.5i25.0.7i84.0.0.input-01?
[14:36:52] <pcw_home> I think (halcmd show pin will list all)
[14:37:16] <R2E4> ok, I think I am good to go.
[14:37:25] <pcw_home> they are all on individual links so have no address
[14:38:16] <R2E4> Thanks
[14:38:39] <pcw_home> if you are using master, there's an alternate naming scheme that uses the card serial number
[14:39:07] <pcw_home> (so you can swap serial cables without causing havoc)
[14:42:05] <R2E4> OK, one very last question... Can I creat variable re: 5i25-1 = hm2.5i25.0 and 7i77-1 = 7i77.0.0 and use them like 5i25-1.7i77-1.input-01 ?

[14:58:45] <R2E4> I remidied my DC spike problem
[15:00:04] <R2E4> I put a 120vac relay tied to AC IN on power supply and ran my dc bus through it, so when Power gets turned off on the power supply, DC get s cut going to the 7i77.

[19:10:07] <heathmanc> not so sure, i beat the crap out of it with windows xp for several hours earlier with no issue
[19:10:20] <heathmanc> it is external power, an allen bradley 12v supply
[19:11:01] <IchGuckLive> how shoudt the livecd reset the board
[19:12:34] <IchGuckLive> let run glxgears on 3 terminals without any other Gui and see if it happens again
[19:12:44] <CaptHindsight> checksum the Linuxnc ISO, check the kernel and other logs, run memtest, underclock etc etc

[19:20:28] <R2E4> filter for removing moisture in air line, has a drain on bottom. Air is escaping. IS the complete filter scrap or how does this air filter work? Anyone familiar with these?
[19:21:04] -!- tmcw has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[19:24:05] <mozmck> Sounds like a water separator? Did you tighten the drain? I think there are all different constructions of them.
[19:24:53] <mozmck> You might have a bad gasket or any number of things I guess.
[19:27:04] <R2E4> http://irmtl.com/LinuxCNC/7i77/brfilter.jpg
[19:27:24] <R2E4> air is coming out of the bottom drain tube.
[19:28:07] <Jymmm> R2E4: is the valve cock closed?
[19:28:11] <mozmck> Your picture is rather bad - there should be some sort of valve for the drain.
[19:28:16] <R2E4> yeah I know what you mean, usually that is a drain with a valve to close. Its used to drain the water from the glase.
[19:28:57] <zeeshan|2> that valve i think is held closed under pressure
[19:29:29] <zeeshan|2> so when you drain your air tank and pressure drops i think below 15psi, it opens and releases storedwater
[19:30:01] <zeeshan|2> if the valve is rusted/blocked or spring failed itll permanently stay open
[19:30:24] <R2E4> http://irmtl.com/LinuxCNC/7i77/brfilter2.jpg
[19:31:08] <R2E4> thats probably the problem. I have to wait till I get there. My accociate is trying to run the Bridgeport and no air to set the brake on the spindle....haha
[19:31:13] <mozmck> that could be - I haven't seen one like that but it would make sense. I wouldn't scrap the thing for sure though. Either find parts to fix the pressure valve or put a manual one on.
[19:31:36] <R2E4> That fileter is from 1985, so guess shouldnt complain about it breaking now.
[19:33:35] <heathmanc> so, have only one core going now, 2 glxgears, a 4gb download
[19:33:44] <heathmanc> and some gcode simulating
[19:33:55] <heathmanc> and the latency test open.. so far max of 4177
[19:33:58] <heathmanc> and no reboot
[19:34:16] <R2E4> damn, what kind of motherboard?
[19:34:21] <R2E4> 4177 is good
[19:34:31] <heathmanc> it is an adlink industrial single board computer
[19:34:58] <R2E4> +
[19:36:01] <R2E4> what zeeshan2 said I think is the problem. I told my accociate to block the drain tube and it should work. I will look at it when I get there tonight. I have a brand new one in a box at the shop.
