[03:21:51] <CaptHindsight> anyone tried using multitouch gestures with Linuxcnc?
[03:22:02] <CaptHindsight> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ek4QaFQ1qo
[03:22:34] <XXCoder1> hey
[03:22:49] <FrankZappa> whoa, looks like the Future
[03:22:49] <XXCoder1> lol dunno? make an geasure and your cnc breaks ;)
[03:22:59] * FrankZappa not being snarky, it really does
[03:23:21] <XXCoder1> I suspect it might finally work because of tablets
[03:23:36] <XXCoder1> before people just wasnt up to it. there was many... MANY geasure programs
[03:23:56] <CaptHindsight> XXCoder1: yeah, but if you can lock the dangerous stuff out but use gestures for navigating around faster
[03:24:07] <XXCoder1> yeah would work
[03:24:41] <CaptHindsight> like running a g-code program would require a long tap on the start button or similar
[03:25:05] -!- gazprom has quit [Write error: Broken pipe]
[03:25:15] <XXCoder1> oh talking about cncs I finally had good cnc day. no miscuts no problems
[03:25:36] <XXCoder1> even the trouble chronic car sized cnc went smoothly for half of day I worked on it
[03:26:09] -!- fogl [fogl!~klemen@89.143.174.46] has joined #linuxcnc
[03:26:09] <CaptHindsight> i was going to play around with a touchscreen with Axis and Gmoccapy
[03:26:27] <CaptHindsight> not sure about which screen to use and all the driver support
[03:26:56] <skunkworks_> 14.04 uses pinch/unpinch for zooming... took a bit to figure that out ;)
[03:28:10] <CaptHindsight> I installed 14.04 but haven't installed Linuxcnc or RTAI to it yet
[03:28:22] <skunkworks_> I am only running sim
[03:28:30] <CaptHindsight> skunkworks_: did you build from source?
[03:28:35] <skunkworks_> yes
[03:29:00] <CaptHindsight> which RTAI kernel?
[03:29:04] <skunkworks_> sim
[03:29:12] <CaptHindsight> ah
[03:29:30] <skunkworks_> isn't there someone on the forum that got rtai running on 14.04?
[03:29:57] * Valen thinks they should consider xubuntu as the base for the next release
[03:30:14] <CaptHindsight> I lost track of that one thread but we had difficulty reproducing his work
[03:30:26] <CaptHindsight> maybe Debian
[03:30:52] <XXCoder1> Valen: yeah
[03:30:59] <XXCoder1> xfce is amazing
[03:31:11] <Valen> I wouldn't go that far
[03:31:14] <Valen> but its not unity
[03:31:17] <Valen> which is a good thing
[03:31:27] <CaptHindsight> 3.4.55 was the last stable RTAI since the scheduler needed to be reworked due to changes in the newer kernels
[03:32:08] <CaptHindsight> been trying the various Mint (deb versions) spins as well lately

[03:36:08] <XXCoder1> well hope it gets workable new ready to go linuxcnc soonish
[03:37:22] <Valen> has there been a release since 10.04?
[03:37:34] <CaptHindsight> well 12.04 works
[03:37:37] <XXCoder1> well i downloaded latest and it was 10.04
[03:37:48] <XXCoder1> I dont care to use call home version of ubuntu
[03:37:50] <CaptHindsight> there's a howto on the wiki
[03:37:51] <Valen> thats not a "release" though is it?
[03:38:20] <CaptHindsight> nope, I don't think there will be another ubuntu based release

[03:39:47] <XXCoder1> rtai?
[03:40:06] <CaptHindsight> the RTAI linux kernel
[03:40:17] <XXCoder1> yeah just found detals. thanks tho
[03:40:36] <CaptHindsight> they were using RTAI 4.0 which is broken and having trouble
[03:41:08] <CaptHindsight> so kernel 3.4.55 RTAI is the latest stable

[03:46:09] <CaptHindsight> https://github.com/ShabbyX/RTAI/tree/linuxcnc-old An old but the only working RTAI repo for LinuxCNC
[03:49:27] <Tecan> hmm
[03:50:20] <Tecan> ubuntu 14.04 EMC ?
[03:50:48] <CaptHindsight> if you want to build it yourself
[03:51:16] <CaptHindsight> Tecan: have you tried the 12.04 howto?

[04:00:01] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: even an old 5-wire touch is fine but I wanted to see what it takes to get the multipoint cap touch panels to behave with Linuxcnc
[04:00:27] <CaptHindsight> the 19-24" cap touch panels are <$300 now
[04:00:37] -!- patrickarlt has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[04:01:16] <CaptHindsight> they don't work well with gloves on but they also don't get cut or wear the way a resistive film does
[04:01:40] <tjtr33> ok, resistive/capacitive ,not ir sensing & projectors
[04:02:04] <XXCoder1> not bad
[04:02:11] <tjtr33> tehere were some stand alone gestural devices... lemme look back
[04:02:17] <XXCoder1> ir sense is nice sometimes
[04:02:37] <XXCoder1> it works with anything, while capactive needs finger or special tip on screen pen
[04:02:44] <tjtr33> http://www.i-bar.ch/ :) where i first saw
[04:03:23] <XXCoder1> resistive works with anything too but less sensive
[04:03:30] <CaptHindsight> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009610 not industrial but low cost to play with
[04:03:47] <XXCoder1> easy enough to convert it to industual
[04:03:55] <XXCoder1> new case
[04:04:07] <XXCoder1> you got a cnc, cnc it up
[04:04:36] <CaptHindsight> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824016343 optical touch
[04:05:14] <tjtr33> here ya go Luke, mind control http://hackaday.com/2009/10/21/mind-control-via-serial-port/
[04:05:18] <XXCoder1> well later
[04:05:47] <CaptHindsight> new case and power supply, plus a lookover of how well they built the lcd controller board
[04:05:53] <XXCoder1> those droids are not droids we are looking for. move on. move on

[04:06:31] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: did you get all the cats inside? storm are on the way :)
[04:07:19] <tjtr33> no cats here ! but i layed down the6x6 fence panels
[04:07:56] <CaptHindsight> " using brain waves as a controller via a DB9 serial port." what an assumption!
[04:08:18] <CaptHindsight> no brain, no effect
[04:08:47] <tjtr33> it was a toy, the 'force trainer' from starwars days
[04:09:17] <tjtr33> here ya go, the LeapMption device https://www.leapmotion.com/
[04:09:32] <tjtr33> its got a limited volume to gesture inside
[04:10:28] <CaptHindsight> there was nearly a whole floor of gesture devices at Computex back ~2010'
[04:10:38] <tjtr33> reminded me of Trillian tossing a pencil into Zaphod's volume sensitive space, turnng off the radio news of his stealing the spaceship ( hitchhikers guide )
[04:11:31] <tjtr33> i got some italian gestures to try on it ;) ( slams fist into palm, slapping wrist down )
[04:11:40] <CaptHindsight> was out earlier to test AMD laptops for latency, nobody had any

[04:13:43] <CaptHindsight> I need brand spanking new hardware
[04:13:55] <tjtr33> http://freegeekchicago.org/donate oh, not new

[04:17:06] <tjtr33> so what hardware is your latest fav? amd still? got more than 1 full pci slot?
[04:17:35] <CaptHindsight> I'm reevaluating

[04:22:02] <CaptHindsight> lots of slots for multiple fpga cards
[04:24:06] <tjtr33> i was lookin at that, weird cooler pipe, yep likeevery oddball pci format in pairs
[04:24:24] <tjtr33> hey Bilbo, Frodo, Bardahl... the Ring gesture device https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1761670738/ring-shortcut-everything?ref=discovery
[04:26:18] <CaptHindsight> now if they could make those into 10 lb ankle bracelets and wrist bands
[04:26:33] <CaptHindsight> that require motion to charge
[04:28:21] <tjtr33> haha a green tech WOnder WOman bracelet
[04:28:27] <CaptHindsight> maybe I'll just drop all this cnc and 3d printing nonsense and start making krap kickstarter

[05:33:13] <zeeshan> anyone awake
[05:33:18] <zeeshan> i need help setting up limit switches =/
[05:33:26] <zeeshan> i currently only have 2 inputs free
[05:33:38] <zeeshan> whats the best way to wire up hard limits or home limits ;p

[05:42:29] <MrSunshine> put em all in parallel and have search order of 0 1 2 on the axises when homing ?
[05:42:56] <zeeshan> the thing is
[05:42:56] -!- pjm has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[05:42:57] <MrSunshine> do not haver time for more than that but i think that is how i would have done it, to have limits and homes on just 1 input =)
[05:43:00] <zeeshan> i kind of want a safety system
[05:43:04] <zeeshan> i dont wanna rely on soft limits
[05:43:10] <MrSunshine> and hard limits you do not wire, them you bolt hard to the machine
[05:43:21] <MrSunshine> :P
[05:43:30] <zeeshan> from my understanding, when you have home limit switches, you can setup the machine origin which in turn allows you to define your soft limits
[05:43:39] <zeeshan> so you would need one for x and one for z
[05:43:47] -!- pjm [pjm!~pjm@uhfsatcom.plus.com] has joined #linuxcnc
[05:43:51] <zeeshan> and for hard limits, they should make the machine go in e-stop.
[05:44:05] -!- acdha has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[05:44:12] <zeeshan> so im thinking, i can put a bunch of NC limit switches in series with my e-stop circuit
[05:44:20] <zeeshan> without occupying anymore pins
[05:44:29] <zeeshan> and then wire up 2 limit switches into the 2 pins i have
[05:44:36] <MrSunshine> you got soft limits (software checks position and stops as a cirtain point), "hard" limits .. are they realy called that ? (amplifiers cuts of when limit switches are hit) and dead stop ... (bolted down stuff that hard hits the axis and overloads the motors and stops the machine that way :P )
[05:44:54] -!- pjm has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[05:45:00] <zeeshan> hard = hardware limit
[05:45:02] <MrSunshine> i think you can have all X Y Z limits (both ways) and home switches in parallel on one input
[05:45:07] <zeeshan> im assuming thats what they abbreciate
[05:45:09] <zeeshan> and soft = software
[05:45:18] <MrSunshine> if you code some hal yourself =)
[05:45:31] <zeeshan> if i went with a frigging mesa card
[05:45:35] <zeeshan> and not this bullshit parallel port card
[05:45:38] <zeeshan> i wouldnt have this problem :p
[05:45:51] <zeeshan> oh well!
[05:46:07] <zeeshan> im gonna sleep
[05:46:10] <zeeshan> its 2am already jeez
[05:46:11] <MrSunshine> only problem with having them all on the same input is that you need to set the search order for the axises for it to know what axis it has homed

[05:46:26] <zeeshan> MrSunshine: that should be okay to do i'd think
[05:46:27] <MrSunshine> so you cannot home all axises simultaniously =)
[05:47:32] <MrSunshine> http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Homing_And_Limit_Switch
[05:47:36] <MrSunshine> some info about the hal bit atleast
[05:48:37] <MrSunshine> might be series on the limit switches if you use them as NC or parallel if they are NO
[05:48:42] <MrSunshine> oh well, time to go to work

[15:47:20] <lair82> Here is the link though, right from the Linuxcnc community webpage, "http://www.linuxcnc.org/irc/irc.freenode.net:6667/emc/"
[15:48:11] <archivist> that needs fixing
[15:49:17] <CaptHindsight> http://linuxcnc.mah.priv.at/irc/%23linuxcnc/index-2014.html
[15:50:38] <lair82> Also, CaptHindsight that ASRock FM2A88M-HD+ motherboard with the AMD A4-4000 Richland 3.2GHz Socket FM2 65W Desktop Processor will be showing up today, so I will be able to start playing with it to see what the numbers are on it.
[15:54:19] <lair82> That one works, i think the webpage needs updated then, because the links for both the users, and developers channels archives are broken.
[15:54:59] <CaptHindsight> lair82: check for BIOS updates, in BIOS turn off all the power management, virtualization, and speed stepping etc
[15:55:27] <lair82> Will do
[15:56:52] <lair82> What is the link then for the developers channel, if you happen to have it?
[15:57:02] <CaptHindsight> if you want the gpu hardware accle drivers it's possible to install them using Ubuntu 12.04 with 3.4.55 RTAI http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?LinuxCNC_On_Ubuntu_Precise

[16:00:21] <CaptHindsight> lair82: maybe nothing if all you're doing is running AXIS
[16:00:48] <lair82> We use Gscreen and Gmoccapy on our turning centers
[16:02:13] <CaptHindsight> it depends on which gpu drivers ubuntu defaults to
[16:03:04] <CaptHindsight> sometimes the mesa drivers make scrolling or panning really choppy
[16:03:09] <pcw_home> Gscreen and Gmoccapy must been pretty pokey wit a Intel Atom

[16:07:40] <CaptHindsight> I might pick one up later ASRock FM2A88M-HD+ and 3.9Ghz A6 is only $90, $165 with an A10
[16:07:48] <lair82> The crappy thing about the whole situation is, having to try to jam that great big micro-atx board in the nice little space the mini-itx's are in right now on my control.
[16:08:43] <lair82> Is it really that much more advantageous to go to the A-10 or A-6 over the A-4 that I bought?
[16:09:22] <CaptHindsight> probably not for you, but I'm using cameras with Linuxcnc and doing lots of image processing
[16:10:07] <pcw_home> The A4 shoudl be a big step-up over the Atom CPU speed wise (and video wise if the GPU is supported)
[16:10:11] <jdh> I just put in 6 Cognex cameras. Quite pricey but nice.

[16:13:24] <lair82> well that blows
[16:13:30] <jdh> tighten up the nut?
[16:13:51] <Connor> Tried to use the probe to measure a 1-2-3 block and it was off by around .02" give or take..
[16:13:56] <jdh> I think I'd blow teh $200 on the ballscrews before $125 for a touch probe :)
[16:14:13] <Connor> Well.. It's my next purchase..
[16:14:26] <Connor> My thinking was.. It's working.. get new toys...
[16:14:28] <jdh> plus, you can do 125IPM
[16:14:44] <CaptHindsight> jdh: how are you using the cameras?

[16:16:59] <Connor> jdh: How are they getting EXTRA travel with the Y ?

[18:07:12] <FrankZappa> that will be messy, potentially
[18:07:24] <FrankZappa> got a really sharp millbit and a really high spinrate?
[18:07:45] <Connor> This is my ROUTER not my mill...
[18:07:52] <Connor> so, yea, it's a BOSH colt..
[18:07:57] <zeeshan-laptop> FrankZappa trollin again
[18:07:57] <zeeshan-laptop> ;D
[18:08:13] <Connor> Just not sure what feed rate to use.
[18:08:18] <zeeshan-laptop> as high as possible
[18:08:18] <zeeshan-laptop> :D
[18:08:23] <zeeshan-laptop> its only glued up wood
[18:08:36] <zeeshan-laptop> i bet you could mill it at 1000 ipm
[18:08:36] <Connor> that's MDF, Plywood is different story.
[18:08:53] <FrankZappa> mdf doesn't behave in asymmetric response because it's homogenous.
[18:09:14] <FrankZappa> plywood has alternating layers of 90 degree oriented sheets
[18:09:27] <FrankZappa> so it's friable, whereas mdf isn't
[18:09:35] <zeeshan-laptop> thanks for the lecture
[18:09:36] <zeeshan-laptop> i know this
[18:09:37] <Connor> I'm cutting out circles.. .755" dia

[18:11:17] <Connor> I'm doing 30 holes.. using a router... with a max bit size shank of 1/4"
[18:12:02] <FrankZappa> wish I could help... beyond my expertise. I'd just use diff tools/setup
[18:12:06] <Connor> on a 10" x 12" x 1.5" plywood (two 3/4" glued together, or maybe 3 1/2" glued.. depends on which one I want to use)
[18:12:12] <FrankZappa> I realize you're probably going with what you must
[18:12:38] <Connor> Making a TTS Tool Rack for my Mill..
[18:12:48] <zeeshan-laptop> just use a 1/4" end mill
[18:12:50] <zeeshan-laptop> and go at it :D
[18:12:54] <FrankZappa> I have seen shots online of people doing smaller holes on the 90 deg points of the circle
[18:13:01] <FrankZappa> then cutting between
[18:13:09] <FrankZappa> they get decent results after cleanup
[18:13:29] <FrankZappa> I can see you want to do angular plunge cut tho
[18:13:41] <Connor> options are manually use hole saw or forstner bit.. or using 1/4" end mill and have the router do it and step back and watch.
[18:13:59] <FrankZappa> yeah I'd go hole saw
[18:14:00] -!- garfong has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[18:14:08] <FrankZappa> thats kind of big for a forstner
[18:14:13] <zeeshan-laptop> you have a holesaw that can make a .755 hole?
[18:14:19] <FrankZappa> and they don't always remove the material efficiently
[18:14:25] <zeeshan-laptop> cause itll be +/- 30 thou at least
[18:14:26] <zeeshan-laptop> with a whole saw
[18:14:27] <syyl> 0.755 big or a forstner?
[18:14:28] <zeeshan-laptop> hole
[18:14:30] <syyl> drunk?
[18:14:41] <Connor> No. .75" but.. they're not tight tolerance.
[18:14:42] <FrankZappa> I always use smaller ones
[18:14:48] <Connor> and this doesn't have to be dead nutz on either.
[18:14:55] <syyl> go for the router
[18:15:02] <syyl> thats what those machines are made for :)

[18:18:44] <Connor> I thnk it's birch.. or slightly softer.. finished ply from Home Depot.
[18:18:45] <zeeshan-laptop> have you setup limit switches on your mill yet
[18:18:59] <zeeshan-laptop> home depot ply is birch
[18:19:04] <zeeshan-laptop> at least at mine
[18:19:16] <Connor> Mill ? Yes / No.. I had it setup for one of the axis.. but.. it's not active .. why ?
[18:19:17] <mozmck> I doubt it's birch from home depot

[18:19:30] <mozmck> unless it is a small specialty piece.
[18:19:35] <zeeshan-laptop> connor, i got 2 free input pins, and i need to setup home switches
[18:19:40] <zeeshan-laptop> and hard limit switches
[18:19:48] <zeeshan-laptop> i was thinking of putting the hard limit switches in series with the e-stop
[18:19:57] <zeeshan-laptop> and then running each home switch to each pin
[18:19:58] <mozmck> guess it is:)

[18:21:25] <Connor> You could run the hard limits in series to one input, and then homes in series into the other..
[18:21:42] <Connor> Mine home/limits are the same switch..
[18:21:43] <zeeshan-laptop> whats wrong with throwing it in the e-stop circuit
[18:21:50] <zeeshan-laptop> that way it kills all power to the stepper drives
[18:21:50] <syyl> nothing wrong
[18:21:51] <Connor> Nothing. You can do that too..
[18:21:59] <syyl> thats common practice on real machines
[18:22:10] <zeeshan-laptop> but you gotta worry about noise then right?
[18:22:11] <Connor> but, then you need some sort of limit override button.
[18:22:12] <mozmck> Connor: see the second link I sent (cnczone) #3 posting.
[18:22:20] <Connor> to get it out of e-stop / limit condition
[18:22:23] <zeeshan-laptop> oh
[18:22:34] <syyl> thats also common Connor
[18:22:34] <zeeshan-laptop> good point
[18:22:38] <zeeshan-laptop> itll just get stuck there
[18:22:39] <zeeshan-laptop> lol
[18:22:46] <zeeshan-laptop> i can always move the axis with my hand!
[18:22:51] <Connor> syyl: Yes, it is.. but, he doesn't have that yet.. which is why I'm bringing it up.
[18:22:58] <zeeshan-laptop> i deserve to move it by hand for crashing =D
[18:23:38] <zeeshan-laptop> i think i have a spare momentary switch somewhere
[18:24:09] <Connor> yea.. if you do that, you put the switch in parallel with ALL the other E-stop switches..
[18:24:22] <Connor> you push it.. keep it pushed.. then turn the machine ON in linuxcnc..
[18:24:29] <Connor> then jog it out of e-stop
[18:24:32] <Connor> or limit
[18:24:33] <Connor> I mean
[18:24:39] <zeeshan-laptop> yea that sounds a lot better
[18:24:44] <zeeshan-laptop> than trying to rotate the ball screw by hand
[18:24:48] <zeeshan-laptop> to get out of e-stop
[18:24:55] <Connor> that's how we have Pete's setup.
[18:25:09] <zeeshan-laptop> okay i will do that

[19:13:11] <maZer`-> Is there a way someone can help me to configure my machine remotely with me? :D
[19:13:35] <maZer`-> I tried long time and read many things, but i think its to difficult for me alone :(
[19:14:19] <CaptHindsight> maZer`-: post your actual problem
[19:14:46] <CaptHindsight> it's not an apprenticeship
[19:15:33] <maZer`-> my actual problem is the configuration of the axis, i have linear encoders but my reference point is in the middle of the machine
[19:15:36] <CaptHindsight> pastebin.ca (or similar) your .ini and hal files with your questions
[19:16:10] <CaptHindsight> so Home is in the middle
[19:16:12] <maZer`-> my machine drives to the end switch, then it turns back and search the marker in the linear encoder
[19:16:28] -!- acdha has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
[19:16:37] <maZer`-> but the marker is about 25cm away and the search is very slow. It takes 2minutes until the machine find it
[19:16:38] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[19:17:36] <maZer`-> i know there is a way i can tell the hal that the reference marker in the linear encoders is about 20cm away from end switch.. but i cant get it working right.
[19:18:04] <CaptHindsight> http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini_homing.html#_home_search_vel
[19:18:26] <maZer`-> yes yes i read it, but my english is not the best and my brain is badder
[19:18:51] <CaptHindsight> that's just to set the Home velocity
[19:19:29] <maZer`-> ok
[19:19:34] <CaptHindsight> please post your .ini and hal files to a pastebin and we can look them over
[19:19:35] <maZer`-> i drive to machine now :D
[19:19:40] <maZer`-> and post the ini
[19:20:01] <CaptHindsight> that would be a good start :)
[19:20:08] <maZer`-> hehe yes :D
[19:20:19] <maZer`-> be back in 20minutes :D
[19:20:33] <CaptHindsight> you can also post to the forums

[19:34:53] <lair82> Why would it tell me that I only have 2 gigs of ram, when I have 16 gigs plugged in?
[19:35:57] <Connor> the BIOS or the OS ?
[19:35:57] <skunkworks> 32bit is only going to see 3.something gb ram.. - some taken for video?
[19:36:12] <Connor> and 32bit vs 64bit
[19:38:00] <lair82> The OS, and I'm not sure on 32 or 64, whichever is on the livecd
[19:38:07] <Connor> 32
[19:38:07] <skunkworks> 32
[19:38:10] <skunkworks> heh
[19:38:24] <Connor> Yo don't need 16gb.. Mine has 4gb.. with 3.2 watever showing.
[19:38:44] <lair82> its j
[19:38:59] <lair82> its j-u-s-t-- ---
[19:39:08] -!- Komzpa has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[19:39:32] <lair82> its just what we had in the right form factor laying around for this new board
[19:40:25] <Connor> okay.. Well.. Also, not ALL MB's recognize different configurations of ram..
[19:40:42] <Connor> Check to see what the BIOS says..
[19:40:56] <lair82> The bios recognizes it though
[19:41:01] <lair82> 16gb
[19:41:23] <MrHindsight> the 2.6 kernel and 3.4.55 RTAI are 32 bit
[19:41:37] <Connor> okay.. so, then it's a limit on the OS.. minus what ever the integrated video card uses
[19:41:44] <MrHindsight> how much memory did you give the GPU?
[19:42:19] <MrHindsight> you can reduce that to 128MB or 64MB
[19:42:27] <lair82> Thats configureable?
[19:42:34] <MrHindsight> in BIOS
[19:42:57] <lair82> Have to check it out tomorrow, Gotta roll, I'm going to let the latency test run through the night and see what it says.
[19:43:08] <MrHindsight> let me see if I can see what your EFI bios offers
[19:43:14] <lair82> Thanks Guys
[19:43:35] <MrHindsight> ok, the 3.4.55 kernel will support more of that hardware including USB3
[19:51:10] <MrHindsight> I'd turn off spread spectrum, turbo core, APM, C6, cool'n'quiet, SVM, cpu throttle, suspend to RAM
[19:52:20] <MrHindsight> you want cpu running at one set frequency, not jumping up/down based on load

[23:41:48] <Tom_itx> i back off my switch .1" after homing
[23:42:44] <jthornton> he wants to do that in the middle of homing I think
[23:42:55] <maZer`-> yes
[23:43:11] <maZer`-> move before the index pulse is coming
[23:43:14] <maZer`-> also
[23:43:32] <maZer`-> drive to end switch -> drive 200mm up -> search the index pulse
[23:43:37] <Tom_itx> dunno if that's possible but there are more than one way to home
[23:44:24] <jthornton> it may do it dunno you just have to try

[23:45:44] <maZer`-> yes thats right
[23:45:44] <maZer`-> but
[23:46:00] <maZer`-> before final detection of switch
[23:46:23] <maZer`-> i want to move 200mm u
[23:46:24] <maZer`-> up
[23:46:33] <maZer`-> and then find the index pulse :D
[23:48:08] <Tom_itx> why do you need to raise z?
[23:48:24] <maZer`-> my index pulse of z
[23:48:39] <maZer`-> has about 250mm distance from end switch :(
[23:48:51] <Tom_itx> home from the other end
[23:49:07] <jthornton> what happened when you tried to home it
[23:49:30] <maZer`-> also he doing all right
[23:49:46] <maZer`-> but he needs about 2minutes to find the index impulse...
[23:50:02] <maZer`-> if i drive faster then he cannot recognize the index impulse in the encoders
[23:50:13] <Tom_itx> go get a cup of coffee while it's homing
[23:50:14] <Tom_itx> :)
[23:50:34] <maZer`-> haha ok yes i think i should do it ;D
[23:50:53] <jthornton> move your home switch
[23:51:19] <maZer`-> you mean in the linear encoders?
[23:51:23] <maZer`-> or the end switch?
[23:51:42] <jthornton> the end switch
[23:51:57] <jthornton> add a middle switch and use that to home to
[23:52:07] <maZer`-> you mean as paralell switch
[23:52:30] <jthornton> a dedicated home switch
[23:52:53] <maZer`-> hm
[23:53:02] <maZer`-> sorry i think i didnt understand it right
[23:53:35] <maZer`-> but if the machine is under the home switch?
[23:53:51] <maZer`-> then he searching home switch but drive in the end switch ? :)
[23:53:59] <jthornton> if it is homing only IIRC it is ignored except when homing
[23:54:29] <jthornton> you might have to jog to a position before homing
[23:54:35] <maZer`-> sounds complicated.. i think i prefer to drink coffee ;D
[23:54:42] <jthornton> much better
[23:54:48] <Tom_itx> or beer
[23:54:57] <maZer`-> yes jthornton but thats a little bit danger
[23:55:03] <jthornton> now your talking but I had mine already today
[23:55:10] <maZer`-> because drive to a position before homing ;D
[23:55:25] <maZer`-> its a big machine with big forces ;D
[23:55:53] <jthornton> get a big coffee pot
[23:56:06] <maZer`-> :)
[23:56:20] <maZer`-> does it possible to change the homing procedure ? i mean to change the script? ;D
[23:56:30] <maZer`-> if there is an script for it :D
[23:56:39] <Tom_itx> you could rewrite it i suppose
[23:57:00] <maZer`-> just need to add a line to jog 200mm up before searching index ;D
[23:57:14] <Loetmichel> maZer`-: you mean to something like: "move z up until you hit either index ot end switch.
[23:57:39] <Loetmichel> when hitting index: homing done, when hitting end switch: creep DOWN until hitting index?
[23:57:39] <maZer`-> nono not until :D
[23:57:56] <Loetmichel> s/ot/or
[23:58:17] <maZer`-> before hitting/searching index, jog 200mm
[23:58:18] <maZer`-> :D
[23:58:37] <maZer`-> but okok i dring a coffee while indexing ;D
[23:58:53] <maZer`-> homing sorry
[23:58:54] <Loetmichel> maZer`-: that will cause a crahs if you machine is already 10mm before z+ end ;-)
[23:59:15] <maZer`-> nono Loetmichel first drive to end switch of z
[23:59:17] <maZer`-> and then jog 200mm ;D
[23:59:37] <maZer`-> also z+ to end switch
[23:59:42] -!- dybskiy has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[23:59:43] <maZer`-> then z- 200mm
[23:59:54] <maZer`-> then search index :D
[23:59:59] <Loetmichel> hmm, but what if the macshine was below the index?
