[01:44:57] <Tom_itx> is that for your christmas tree?
[01:45:33] <Jymmm> Jsut if anyone is looking for some.
[01:46:31] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: Hey, to atmels have a long clock? Not RTC, but the ability to count for years if power is not removed?
[01:46:46] <Tom_itx> not that i'm aware of
[01:46:54] <Tom_itx> unless the xmega series has it
[01:47:07] <Jymmm> Yeah, no I'm goin for the nano stuff actually.
[01:47:08] <Tom_itx> some have rtc
[01:47:29] <Jymmm> really?
[01:47:34] <Tom_itx> and can use a clock crystal on the 2nd timer
[01:47:38] <Tom_itx> yes
[01:47:52] <Tom_itx> i know the 128 has it
[01:47:59] <Tom_itx> sure others do too
[01:48:24] <Jymmm> Ok, not really needed. Just need a way to track on/off event duration and repeat it
[01:49:34] <Tom_itx> http://tom-itx.ddns01.com:81/~webpage/misc_stuff/mega128.jpg
[01:49:45] <Tom_itx> the little one by the chip is a clock crystal
[01:50:09] <Jymmm> ah, how long wide is the pcb?
[01:50:19] <Tom_itx> .6 wide iirc
[01:50:25] <Jymmm> ouch, to big
[01:50:34] <Jymmm> too*
[01:50:34] <Tom_itx> you could make it smaller
[01:50:50] <Tom_itx> or find another chip with a rtc
[01:50:56] <Jymmm> I was just going to use headerless nano
[01:51:07] <Tom_itx> the 328 might
[01:52:26] <Tom_itx> it does
[01:52:51] <Tom_itx> the crystal goes across TOSC1 & TOSC2
[01:53:05] <Tom_itx> then timer2 becomes a rtc counter
[01:54:28] <Tom_itx> what chip does it have?
[01:59:21] <Tom_itx> it has the rtc on it
[01:59:51] <Tom_itx> you'd have to add the 32.786khz crystal to the pins
[02:07:51] <Jymmm> I was thinking like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nano-3-0-Controller-Board-Compatible-with-Arduino-Nano-CH340-USB-Driver-/360944680489?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5409fabe29
[02:12:09] <Jymmm> When a reed switch says N/O is that alone, or with a magnet near it?
[02:12:35] <Tom_itx> alone
[02:12:48] <Jymmm> Oh, you sure?
[02:12:53] <Tom_itx> the nano has the mega328 chip which has the rtc on it
[02:13:05] <Tom_itx> i'm not sure what day it is...
[02:13:10] <Jymmm> Tom_itx: lol
[02:13:22] <Jymmm> ok, thanks. I take that as a definant maybe then =)
[02:13:42] <Tom_itx> i'm quite sure NO is with no magnet
[02:14:15] <Tom_itx> i got a bunch of em for something once...
[02:14:17] <Tom_itx> never used em
[02:14:57] <Jymmm> Ok, then I need NC.
[02:15:01] <Tom_itx> that site also sells panties
[02:15:07] <Jymmm> wait...
[02:15:31] <Jymmm> Yeah, NC then. when the magnet is removed I need it on

[14:12:54] <XXCoder> Tom_itx: land is rinising at calfornina so its releasing lot of stresses
[14:13:05] <XXCoder> because water is so goddamn low there
[14:13:25] <XXCoder> https://imgur.com/a/IgoUq
[14:15:49] <CaptHindsight> so the devil (or demons) are using water (or lack of it) to cause the earthquakes?
[14:16:00] <XXCoder> lol
[14:16:17] <Jymmm> It's all bullshit... Someone just pulled the bathtub plug is all
[14:17:01] <XXCoder> Well someone better plug it in soon. calfornia needs it done soon. Know what is ironic? calformia is still bottling and shipping out lot water
[14:17:10] -!- gene78 [gene78!~gene@204.111.64.149] has joined #linuxcnc
[14:17:45] <Jymmm> maybe the onyly water left
[14:17:52] <XXCoder> Capt seriously it's due to weight changes. Water weight is MUCH less now. enough to affect things there
[14:18:26] <Jymmm> Buy your Arizona beach front property now
[14:18:52] <XXCoder> lol calfornia falling into sea is one whig whopper of myth
[14:19:02] -!- amiri has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[14:19:12] <Jymmm> Not falling, breaking off into Island California
[14:20:47] <XXCoder> well land stresses is wrong for that.
[14:21:53] <PetefromTn_> Good Morning People!
[14:22:02] <XXCoder> morning
[14:22:39] <PetefromTn_> so Cali is gonna break off into the Pacific then LOL?
[14:29:45] <XXCoder> http://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/dynamic/graphics/Fig25.gif pete
[14:30:02] <XXCoder> its possible but not for very long time.
[14:31:26] <PetefromTn_> seems like with all the water gone and all the fat people out in San Fran it would just snap off like a potato chip corner in guacamole LOL
[14:33:21] <XXCoder> what if water was only thing holding california on earth ;)
[14:33:54] <PetefromTn_> Well the guys on the airgun forum gave me a new product idea last night. I started making a 3d model of it last night. I am going to try to nail down a design and prototype one here soon hopefully.
[14:34:54] <PetefromTn_> My wife is from there and I used to live there when I was in the United States Coast Guard. She saw the pictures of the damns and bridges all dried up and could not believe it.
[14:35:08] <PetefromTn_> She used to go boating and jet skiing in those lakes as a youth.
[14:35:35] <SpeedEvil> PetefromTn_: are you aware of sailing hydroplanes?
[14:35:42] <XXCoder> yeah when I saw pictures I was stunned
[14:35:59] <SpeedEvil> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SN1gSkqvy0
[14:36:04] <PetefromTn_> you mean those flying hovercrafts?
[14:36:11] <SpeedEvil> no
[14:36:25] <PetefromTn_> Oh sorry you mean a sailboat with hydrofoils
[14:36:36] <SpeedEvil> Well - taken to the minimum
[14:37:24] <PetefromTn_> yeah they are called Moths I think.
[14:37:36] <PetefromTn_> kickass but I am sure NOT too easy to learn to sail on.
[14:37:39] <XXCoder> pretty cool
[14:38:11] <SpeedEvil> I am betting you'd get a leetle bit wet learning, yeah
[14:38:36] <PetefromTn_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQ-gdqo35os this is amazing..
[14:39:16] <XXCoder> lower cross section in water the better
[14:39:42] <PetefromTn_> sure... 53 MPH huge sailing yacht with no fuel spent. AWesome.
[14:40:14] <XXCoder> yeah carry alternates though wouldnt want to be stuck in becalmed seas
[14:40:40] <PetefromTn_> meh folks have been sailing around the world in less for eons.
[14:40:55] <XXCoder> yeah learning trade winds yeah
[14:41:39] <PetefromTn_> recently watched a video on netfix about a young girl who sailed around the world by herself at like 18 years old. Was quite interesting.
[14:41:59] <XXCoder> heard of that. I wonder what challenges was
[14:45:22] <Jymmm> Reed Switches https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=FhUt7VyMKT4
[14:45:54] <XXCoder> I hate video suggestions its annoying]
[14:46:11] <Jymmm> then just /ignore me
[14:46:19] <XXCoder> uh
[14:46:24] <XXCoder> not YOUR suggestion
[14:46:27] <XXCoder> in youtube
[14:46:46] <Jymmm> Install YouTube Center
[14:46:57] -!- syyl has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[14:48:09] <XXCoder> lemme check that when done
[14:49:32] <Jymmm> They have LATCHING reed switches. Hmmm
[14:53:29] <XXCoder> okay pretty cool
[14:53:35] <XXCoder> but whats reed switches for'
[14:53:58] <Jymmm> magnetic switch
[14:54:20] <PetefromTn_> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2cUht1rxnh4 haulin' sail LOL
[14:54:23] <XXCoder> so it turns on in magnetic field
[14:54:46] <Jymmm> correct, but they also have SPDT and NC too
[14:55:01] <XXCoder> and whats those
[14:55:42] <Jymmm> SPDT? Like an A/B Switch
[14:56:16] <Jymmm> LATCHING is magnet near = on, remove magnet, stays on.
[15:00:42] <XXCoder> cool

[17:10:56] <Tom_itx> i just hit ~80k :D
[17:11:22] <Tom_itx> seems a bit down on power
[17:12:39] <JT-Shop> NGK's Laser Iridium plugs typically last 80-100k miles.
[17:12:53] <XXCoder> laser lol
[17:12:58] <JT-Shop> my OEM plugs were that type
[17:13:18] <XXCoder> I bet when we has hyperspace engines there would be laser hyperspace iridium plugs
[17:14:12] <Tom_itx> these are delco Iridium

[17:42:18] <JT-Shop> james628, you can run 2.6 on Ubuntu 10.04 http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?UpdatingTo2.6
[17:43:47] <archivist> onyedikilo_, does the step loss change with spindle motor (vfd noise)
[17:44:21] <onyedikilo_> nope, i could not verify it, sometimes looses steps
[17:44:26] <james628> JT, yes, I know, but it's a fresh install, so I wanted to use newer system. It's pity that 3.4.9 RTAI kernel performs not soo good. may Xenomai kernel help?
[17:44:36] <onyedikilo_> it wont matter if the vfd is on or off
[17:44:38] <JT-Shop> onyedikilo_, did you do a stepper test?
[17:44:40] <archivist> onyedikilo_, type of stepper driver?
[17:44:49] <onyedikilo_> leadshine dm870
[17:44:56] <JT-Shop> james628, that is beyond my guesspertice
[17:45:07] <onyedikilo_> JT-Shop what is a stepper test ?
[17:45:36] <JT-Shop> it's in the manual http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/common/Stepper_Diagnostics.html
[17:45:43] <archivist> I have has a VDF affect the leadshine stepper driver when not driven very well and a poor ground to the motor
[17:47:42] <onyedikilo_> JT-Shop, yes i tested with linear movements, the problem arises when i use 3 axis at the same time, all of the test i have done so far with linear motion passed.
[17:48:39] <JT-Shop> could be not enough power to keep the voltage up when running all three axes
[17:49:08] <onyedikilo_> JT-Shop, I have 4 motors and 4 seperate power supplys for each motor.
[17:49:30] <XXCoder> house not supplying enough power?

[17:56:27] <XXCoder> any wires running near forsecent lights?
[17:56:28] <onyedikilo_> all my cables are shielded except the dc power supply cables and some short cables inside the controller box
[17:56:43] <pcw_home> are all step/dir lines routed away from power/motor wires?

They do indeed put out more EMF in certain frequencies than incandescent or halogen bulbs, but there is no evidence that this level of EMF poses any health consequences. Further, one thing is absolutely clear – EMF falls off sharply with distance. Even after a couple of feet the EMF put out by light bulbs falls from tiny by many orders of magnitude to negligible. "

[18:14:26] <onyedikilo_> maybe the built in gfx card has a faster comm, or maybe the pci gfx driver is causing the problem?

[18:30:10] <onyedikilo_> i will change the enclosure tomorrow and put a fan to cool the drivers
[18:30:17] <onyedikilo_> rewire everything
[18:30:41] <onyedikilo_> should i use shielded cables for the dc power supply?
[18:31:38] <pcw_home> No but I would make sure that any power wires are routed away from step/dir wires
[18:32:39] <onyedikilo_> can i use ethernet cable for wiring inside the control box? i could not find a twisted pair wire with a shield
[18:33:03] <onyedikilo_> or just shielded wire will do ?
[18:33:28] <onyedikilo_> i am asking this for the cables running from the driver to the bob
[18:33:41] <onyedikilo_> right now they are unshielded

[18:34:36] -!- ries has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[18:35:08] <pcw_home> you could shield the step/dir wires but routing is more important

[18:40:57] <onyedikilo_> probably ? :)
[18:42:06] <somenewguy> USB cable has a shield, you could cut that up?
[18:42:17] <somenewguy> depending on how much length you need of course
[18:42:40] <somenewguy> you never konw when you have an EMI problem, you just have a problem you can't blame on anything else lol
[18:42:50] <onyedikilo_> lol
[18:43:04] <onyedikilo_> wouldnt a cat5 cable be better ?
[18:43:10] <somenewguy> a fun pointer I learned when I was playing w/ CB radio, is never coil up extra wire, you are just making a good antennna
[18:43:31] <somenewguy> loop it back and forth in a S shape to waste extra length, so that it is going in the opposite direction each time and some of hte noise will cancel out
[18:43:42] <somenewguy> USB is twisted pair plus a heavy shield or foil
[18:44:03] <somenewguy> Cat5 shield costs extra

[18:45:47] <somenewguy> USB is usually 2 twisted pair, mini and micro have a 5th wire, plus shield

[18:47:32] <onyedikilo_> yeah i was just looking for a supplyer for those ferrite beads
[18:47:35] <somenewguy> EMI is one of those things I always just throw as many solutions at that I can afford, since it is so dang hard to fix
[18:47:51] <somenewguy> mouser, digikey, newark etc should have em
[18:47:58] <somenewguy> the trick is knowing what they are called by the "pros"

[18:48:29] <onyedikilo_> yes they have funny names 'n here too
[18:48:30] <somenewguy> doesn't farnell have a international branch? do they ship your way
[18:49:10] <somenewguy> alternatly scavenge them off old electronics
[18:49:19] <onyedikilo_> yes they probably would ship but i better find someone close so i can go and buy them tomorrow
[18:49:31] <somenewguy> you can shave the rubber off w/ a razor and liberate them once you cut the end offf the wire
[18:49:47] <onyedikilo_> i can buy vga cables and remove the ferrites
[18:50:10] <onyedikilo_> but there is a supplyer nearby most probably
