[01:24:25] <XXCoder> need bit of advice
[01:24:36] <XXCoder> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/53432577/cncidea7.png
[01:24:54] <XXCoder> seems to be bit too low or what? that router part
[01:30:48] <malcom2O73> Seems to be on a bit of a lever arm, but as long as the rods are strong enough shouldn't matter much
[01:31:38] <XXCoder> I think I do need to adjust it so its max extension would make router touch surface (ignoring collet and such)
[01:34:16] <XXCoder> maybe seperate bearing blocks too
[01:34:37] <XXCoder> more stronger but less travel. I doubt I will need more than 6 inches travel
[01:36:05] <XXCoder> or maybe better if max lowest collet would JUST hit surface
[01:36:06] <XXCoder> better?

[13:50:16] <jdh> any stepper experts around?
[13:50:30] <archivist> just ask the real question :)
[13:50:34] <jdh> I have an ancient system that drives a stepper with CW/CCW pulses with a common ground.
[13:51:30] <jdh> I want to replace it with a Compumotor Zeta drive that will accept cw/ccw and has built in optos, will the common ground screw up anything?
[13:51:56] `Nerobro_ is now known as `Nerobro
[13:52:42] <archivist> doubt it
[13:52:43] <pcw_home> if the OPTOs have a common anode it might
[13:53:45] <pcw_home> are the signals 5V
[13:54:22] <jdh> I haven't measured, but the old drive (TBM105) says it uses 5v
[13:54:54] <jdh> http://www.parkermotion.com/manuals/ZETA/ZETA_Rev_A_Entire.pdf
[13:55:16] <jdh> that is the Zeta manual. P 21 has the wiring info
[13:55:33] <jdh> it does not appear to be common anode, but I'm not sure it would be shown that way.
[13:56:55] <pcw_home> they are differential so you can wire however you like
[13:57:06] <jdh> cool
[13:57:22] <pcw_home> so you should be able to make it completely compatible
[13:57:51] <jdh> someone in the past put a boost transformer on the old TBM105 to fix some problem. It's just kind of hanging off there.
[14:00:25] <jdh> this drive is massive

[16:03:24] <CaptHindsight> unfortunately Unity on 12.04 is giving me the best results
[16:04:31] <CaptHindsight> i haven't tried building a system using Linuxcnc and 14.04 yet, I did verify that 3.4.55 RTAI works with it
[16:05:26] <Jymmm> Unity being what?
[16:05:34] <CaptHindsight> that as far as I've gotten
[16:05:38] <pcw_home> unity on 14.04 is a bit less annoying (it allows you to put menus in the window decorations)
[16:06:05] <CaptHindsight> unity is the ubuntu gnome3 desktop for 12.04 and 14.04
[16:06:10] <Jymmm> ah
[16:06:51] <CaptHindsight> has anyone build RTAI or linuxcnc for 14.04 yet?
[16:07:23] <pcw_home> I think there are some tcl dependency issues
[16:08:49] <CaptHindsight> I can't launch Linuxcnc from the launcher in 12.04. It launches fine from a desktop icon though
[16:09:28] <CaptHindsight> there must be some launcher-foo I'm missing
[16:10:10] <Jymmm> CaptHindsight: I doubt it's you.

[16:55:21] <CaptHindsight> a temporary fix for when the onscreen keyboard doesn't autoomatically pop up is to have a desktop icon for onboard that may be pressed to bring it up
[16:56:03] <CaptHindsight> so far that works with everything in Axis such as entering a MDI
[16:58:49] <CaptHindsight> I tried Linux Mint Cinnamon to see if the touschscreen would be any better.... the onboard keyboard looks like it's from the 90's

[18:10:11] <CaptHindsight> the first step for onscreen keyboard with touchscreen will just be proper desktop integration, it seems these Ubuntu projects get close and then stop or get worse
[18:12:16] <CaptHindsight> maybe a gamepad + touchscreen
[18:12:48] <Jymmm> No , not "desktop" intergrations, system intergration as you could use a terminal variant much like joystick

[18:17:19] <CaptHindsight> Jymmm: thats right off the wiki http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Gmoccapy
[18:17:47] <CaptHindsight> I only write software as a last resort
[18:18:57] <Jymmm> Y'all are some great coders, but ya suck at UI. Now all coders sucks at docs, but that's a given and why tech writers exist =)
[18:19:38] <Jymmm> Do what you do best my lil code monkeys!!!
[18:20:20] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[18:21:08] <Jymmm> What is the GUI framework in those examples CaptHindsight?
[18:21:11] <CaptHindsight> I think the UI's have evolved from traditional machine interfaces
[18:21:43] <Jymmm> Well, for example look at this... http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/uploads/gmoccapy_ntb_preview_maximized_2.png
[18:21:57] <Jymmm> There is HUGE unused whitespace everywhere.
[18:22:56] <Jymmm> itty bitty xyz on the left, no scaling of labels/data, the right column buttons have unused top/bottom white space that could be for fingers to touch. etc.
[18:23:27] <Jymmm> the bottom row has huge gaps of whitespace too.
[18:23:40] <Jymmm> tiny tabs at the top
[18:23:47] <CaptHindsight> well I supposedly have the latest stable Android on a Google Nexus and the phone app appears to be written by people that have never actually used phones
[18:23:55] <Jymmm> no display of UOM
[18:24:11] <Jymmm> it's a small thing, but could save some grief
[18:24:58] <Jymmm> Maybe intergarate "HOME" or JOG function into the existings items
[18:25:34] <Jymmm> tap x-rel and a numpad pops up as example
[18:25:55] <Jymmm> but give some indication that is even possible to do.
[18:26:01] <Jymmm> etc
[18:26:47] <Jymmm> I suspect it may be a limitation of the gui framework though.

[19:14:23] <Cylly> 10 hours is a bit much though
[19:14:45] <miss0r> perhaps if you go by road - we did that too, but as much as possible we did terrain

[19:20:53] <CaptHindsight> horses! I wish we had horses :)
[19:21:08] <Jymmm> miss0r: maybe ppl add flavorings to camelbacks
[19:21:13] <Jymmm> many*
[19:21:21] <Loetmichel> whats a camelback?
[19:21:29] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: google it
[19:21:30] <miss0r> Loetmichel: CaptHindsight had the worst job of all. not only did he have to get up at 03:30 every morning to feed the horses, his primary function was to put the canonball into the barrel of the blackpouder prior to battle
[19:21:44] <miss0r> Loetmichel: cammelbak
[19:21:54] <Jymmm> miss0r: your muscles will thank you for the added electrolytes and minerals
[19:22:18] <miss0r> Jymmm: I filled up on all sorts of stuff when I got home ;)
[19:22:30] <Jymmm> miss0r: pro atheletes are now going to pedilite over gatorade
[19:22:32] <CaptHindsight> 3:30!, we had to wake up 2 hours before went to bed :)
[19:22:49] <Jymmm> miss0r: you want to replenish as you go, not "after the fact"

[19:23:42] <bertrik> CaptHindsight: and lick the road clean?
[19:23:44] <miss0r> Jymm: well. it will be 6 months before the next march. I shall try to remember there
[19:23:55] <Loetmichel> we had just the usual aluminium bottles on the belt
[19:24:05] <Jymmm> miss0r: and sell each packet to other for $5 =)
[19:24:18] <Loetmichel> Jymmm:you are greedy ;-)
[19:24:24] <miss0r> Loetmichel: Quite nice to have. you have a hose/straw to drink from - that makes it easy enough for you to do so you won't forget to hydrate
[19:24:35] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: What, all they are goin g to do is drink ber anyway =)
[19:24:57] <miss0r> Jymmm: You make it sound like we have a choise?
[19:24:58] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: as it it miss0r fault that others didn't think of it?
[19:25:18] <Jymmm> miss0r: choice of beer =)
[19:25:38] <Loetmichel> surprisingly: i had to ditch my last sixpack beer. was a year over the "best before" date
[19:25:51] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: Besides, not like miss0r is holding a gun to their head
[19:26:06] <Loetmichel> Jymmm: charging $5 for a pack that costs a few cent seems greedy to me
[19:26:23] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: supply and demand baby =)
[19:26:28] <miss0r> Jymmm: There we go - 4 mill bits ordered ;)
[19:26:39] <Jymmm> 50 miles from nowhere =)
[19:26:45] <Loetmichel> still greedy
[19:26:55] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: miss0r gotta pay for thour pcb bits somehow =)
[19:26:57] <Loetmichel> it will get paid, still you are on the greedy side ;-)
[19:27:15] <Jymmm> Loetmichel: Not greedy, $10 would be greedy =)
[19:27:24] <Jymmm> miss0r: so charge $8 instead =)
[19:27:38] <Loetmichel> if you say so. my opinion is a bit different

[21:55:41] <zeeshan> thats easy to change
[21:55:42] <zeeshan> :D
[21:55:50] <zeeshan> i thought it was the chip that the red lines are pointing to
[21:55:55] <CaptHindsight> and new pcb traces
[21:56:09] <CaptHindsight> vs $1400 for a new ecu
[21:56:24] <zeeshan> you can get it from a junkyard :P

[22:02:02] <CaptHindsight> around here it's $100-200 for immobilizer programming

[22:03:50] <zeeshan> and run leaner!
[22:03:53] <CaptHindsight> yeah, considering the same
[22:04:18] <andypugh> EGR isn’t all bad, you know.

[22:04:39] <CaptHindsight> or ECU would be better
[22:05:11] <zeeshan> sorry im old school
[22:05:15] <CaptHindsight> maybe a open ECU or at least one you can not worry about the immobilizer one
[22:05:17] <andypugh> CaptHindsight: Ah, you want to import just the engines? You probably need them as a unit with the loom anyway, and the acessory drive will always be a horribe job to re-engineer.

[22:07:29] <zeeshan> and compare them to the industrial sector
[22:07:37] <zeeshan> you'll notice car co2 emissions make up like 15% for co2
[22:07:54] <t12> noone ever wants to talk about
[22:07:58] <andypugh> The car is possibly the worst environmental disaster of all time, on some levels.
[22:07:59] <t12> the amount that goes into fertalizer
[22:08:07] <zeeshan> andypugh: i disagree
[22:08:19] reksio666 is now known as micges
[22:08:25] <zeeshan> the worst environment disaster is the human being
[22:08:37] <CaptHindsight> well the conservatives anyway :)
[22:08:49] <zeeshan> t12: for every coal plant the USA closes
[22:08:53] <zeeshan> china opens 5
[22:09:04] <zeeshan> at least thats what the stat said back a couple years ago
[22:09:06] <t12> lets go to war and stop the coal plants
[22:09:19] <andypugh> Well, yes, but without us life is doomed anyway. At least there is a chance we can make up for it all by getting life off-planet :-)
[22:09:26] <CaptHindsight> well it's their turn now the west had their way the past 100 years

[22:09:31] <t12> yeahi say
[22:09:33] <zeeshan> i have a catalyitic convertor (3 way)
[22:09:36] <t12> we just gotta make it into orbit
[22:09:41] <CaptHindsight> that's the attitude in China
[22:09:41] <zeeshan> but on my race car, fuck will i ever put a catalytic converter on it
[22:09:42] <t12> then we can play ever expanding economy for much longer
[22:09:56] <zeeshan> andypugh: just like you wont have a cat on your nerf-a-car
[22:09:56] <zeeshan> :P
[22:10:31] <zeeshan> ner-a-car i mean
[22:10:47] <zeeshan> ive personally gone to india
[22:10:50] <zeeshan> and china.
[22:10:52] <andypugh> CaptHindsight: I have some sympathy with their viewpoint, and they _still_ have far lower per-capita emissions that the US (or the UK)
[22:10:54] <zeeshan> you can't fucking breathe!
[22:11:00] <zeeshan> the sky is BROWN
[22:11:17] <t12> cut to: the industrial revolution
[22:11:24] <andypugh> Yeah, London was like that 50 years ago.
[22:11:27] <CaptHindsight> zeeshan: you should go in winter, it's more grey
[22:11:51] <andypugh> I have only been to China in winter. It was quite nice.

[22:12:41] <andypugh> The Ner-a-Car doesn’t have a Cat. But my main bike (the R1) does, and I have felt no urge at all to remove any of the emissions stuff, or fit a louder exhaust.

[22:13:14] <zeeshan> andypugh: as you probably know a cat only works within +/- 5% of 14.7:1 for gasoline
[22:13:20] <zeeshan> on the race car, im close to 11.8:1
[22:13:27] <zeeshan> since it's WOT most of the time
[22:13:30] <andypugh> Because a) it is quite fast enough and b) I don’t want anyone to notice how fast it is :-)
[22:13:33] <zeeshan> it burns up cats and clogs em

[22:14:07] <CaptHindsight> andypugh: did they make a mechanical fuel injection small 4 cylinder diesel there?
[22:14:16] <andypugh> zeeshan: They _can_ work. Diesels run fantastically lean and their cats work.
[22:14:31] <andypugh> CaptHindsight: They made millions.
[22:14:32] <CaptHindsight> old VW diesel engines here for for $2K worn out
[22:14:42] <zeeshan> andypugh: well the leaner you get the more inefficient they become
[22:14:51] <zeeshan> and the richer you get, the hotter they run, and blow up
[22:14:51] <zeeshan> :D
[22:14:59] <andypugh> I think that probably depends on the cat.
[22:15:10] <zeeshan> i only have expeirence with 3 way cats on gasoline
[22:15:24] <zeeshan> i know very little about diesel. mainly from class
[22:15:30] <andypugh> And I don’t actually do emissions work at all. I mainly do noise.
[22:15:54] <zeeshan> you're a master acoustic impedance guy then!
[22:16:06] <zeeshan> i took this 'noise analysis & control' class
[22:16:07] <DaViruz> diesel engines (diesel pumps specifically) and automatic transmissinos are not engineered, they are brewed in a pot by a witch living near the top of a mountain
[22:16:10] <zeeshan> it was my favourite
[22:17:23] <CaptHindsight> zeeshan: maybe I should just import them from Canada
[22:17:31] <zeeshan> import what?
[22:17:50] <CaptHindsight> 4 cyl diesel engines
[22:17:59] <zeeshan> no
[22:18:14] <zeeshan> your main option would be like a VW tdi engine
[22:18:22] <zeeshan> but if you source from uk or europe, you can get all sorts of fancy stuff
[22:18:35] <zeeshan> all depends on how many you want
[22:18:41] <zeeshan> and power specs
[22:18:56] <CaptHindsight> a few thousand should keep me busy
[22:19:39] <CaptHindsight> or until the EPA gets upset about there being too many retrofits

[22:22:28] <CaptHindsight> they did a good job of keeping high mpg diesels off the roads here
[22:22:38] <CaptHindsight> so they are hard to find
[22:23:30] <CaptHindsight> there's an outfit that imports japanese engines here, they do swaps for cheap
[22:23:49] <CaptHindsight> but no diesels
[22:23:57] -!- mhaberler has quit [Quit: mhaberler]
[22:25:23] <Loetmichel> why not?
[22:25:36] <Loetmichel> diesels are rhe simpler engines i think
[22:25:54] <CaptHindsight> not many japanese diesel cars were imported here
[22:26:03] <CaptHindsight> they kept it from happening
[22:26:06] <Loetmichel> even my turbocharged 6zyl is not as complex as its gasoline counterpart
[22:26:24] <CaptHindsight> they wanted everyone driving low mileage SUV's
[22:27:14] <CaptHindsight> thats why the emmisions standard was specifically written to not allow the high mileage diesels common in Europe to reach the US
[22:27:47] <CaptHindsight> the max sulfur standard is too low
[22:29:35] <Loetmichel> that is a problem for the fuel suppliers, not the engine makers?
[22:29:48] <Loetmichel> and high mileage?

[22:33:40] <Loetmichel> the same car with a 2,5 liter gasoline engine is much worse, though
[22:33:42] <CaptHindsight> hard to find an Opel here made after 1980
[22:34:00] <Loetmichel> CaptHindsight: america?
[22:34:09] <CaptHindsight> yes
[22:35:02] <Loetmichel> then look for a cadillac catera
