[01:28:20] <tjtr33> jims you're gonna have to study this a bit.
[01:28:28] <tjtr33> but i have some python M1xx files in nc-files.
[01:28:36] <tjtr33> They are called from gcode with the format _like_ M199 P100 Q2.345
[01:28:43] <tjtr33> The python file gets the P & Q as $1 $2
[01:28:52] <tjtr33> The python file execs lines _like_ this 'halcmd setp mypyvcp.counter $1 ' ( for 1st passed param ).
[01:29:01] <tjtr33> There is a receiving pyvcp widget with a hal pin, say a number field with a hal pin named _like_ mypyvcp.counter.
[01:29:09] <tjtr33> The python file directly sets the pyvcp pin in this case ( no net is made ).
[01:29:17] <tjtr33> there are a brazillion variants on this!
[01:29:18] <tjtr33> thx to archivist for the $1 trick
[01:31:53] <tjtr33> i had to set a whole bunch of data in one app. so P was a file name ( all numeric ) and Q was an index into the flat-file database. I set a dozen parms with each call that way
[01:36:11] <malcom2073> heh, recompiling linuxcnc on a beaglebone black... time to take a nap :/
[01:43:25] <tjtr33> malcom2073, maybe look at derek malloy's youtube vids on how to cross compile and auto deploy from the pc to the BBB using the Eclipse IDE
[01:44:23] <_methods> yeah man you don't want to compile on that lol
[01:44:56] <_methods> you'll be waiting a real long time and then find out 6 hours in theres an error lol
[01:46:08] <tjtr33> he also shows remote debugging and remote step by stepping thru the code. pretty cool toolset ( all free )
[01:47:15] <malcom2073> tjtr33: That may be worth it, though I only do this about once a year so far haha

[11:22:29] <dutchfish> cradek, before and after the fix: http://www.yellowsource.org/images/cnc_bootstrap_part2.jpg | the right object on the table is current 2.6.8, the left object is made with the same setup (TB6560AHQ) and my fix applied running at much higher speeds 1000nS delays only so it doesnt burn.
[11:23:55] <dutchfish> (i wasted 2 mill taps on this, but hey who cares)

[11:25:24] <Loetmichel> dutchfish: that looks a bit like the bit BURNED its way thru instead of cutting
[11:26:27] <archivist> alas poor dremel I knew him well
[11:26:35] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, indeed, because it ran much to slow because of the driver delays
[11:27:05] <dutchfish> archivist, yes, i have ordered something much better, but thats another story
[11:27:14] <Loetmichel> dremel is very suboptimal for milling tho
[11:27:21] <dutchfish> archivist, its what i have atm
[11:27:25] <Loetmichel> bearings way to far from the collet
[11:27:32] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, absolutely true
[11:27:49] <dutchfish> the point is that my atch works
[11:27:54] <dutchfish> s/atch/patch
[11:28:13] <Loetmichel> i made some small mill motors of iniliner skate bearings and spare parts
[11:28:29] <dutchfish> with feedrates up to 1400mm
[11:28:49] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12757&g2_imageViewsIndex=1
[11:28:54] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, yeh, a friend of my did the same
[11:29:06] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12846
[11:29:20] <XXCoder1> just hope my edge router would work fine lol
[11:29:25] -!- Akex_ has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
[11:29:35] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, but ones my Siemens BLDC is in, that will change the game
[11:30:23] <dutchfish> (48V polyphase 3-8, 2kW)
[11:30:37] <dutchfish> double bearings
[11:30:51] <dutchfish> with controller
[11:31:17] <Loetmichel> works also very well with model plane BLDC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-698Lwahn74
[11:31:30] <MrSunshine> hmm is it possible by gcode to ask user for input before the machine starts ?
[11:32:03] <MrSunshine> like a fixture location script to make dowel holes, ask for number of dowels between and thickness of the workpiece before it begins
[11:32:27] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, yes, toolchange (see the example files)
[11:33:14] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, i dont know the filenames by heart, but there are at least 2 examples in there
[11:34:09] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, i dont know if scripting for params is possible
[11:34:18] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, probably
[11:37:04] <MrSunshine> dutchfish: but what example files do you mean ? =)
[11:37:55] <MrSunshine> its kinda hard to find something when yuou do not even know where to start and look :P
[11:38:02] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, the ones in /home/[username]/linuxcnc/examples/
[11:38:21] <MrSunshine> atm im not at the computer with linuxcnc on :/ where could those be located on the github ? =)
[11:38:41] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, assuming you used the wheezy image and upgrade to the latest (2.6.8)
[11:40:38] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, hold on i look it up
[11:41:14] <MrSunshine> heh thanks =)

[11:45:42] <dutchfish> MrSunshine, that should roughly get you going
[11:45:50] <MrSunshine> thanks =)
[11:46:08] <dutchfish> yw
[11:46:44] <jthornton> the link is to the nc_files directory for 2.6 on git
[11:51:56] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, where did you obtain the motor and controller form that video (if i may ask)?
[11:52:28] -!- BellinganRoy has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
[11:52:55] <Loetmichel> dutchfish: the controller is from Hobbyking.com.
[11:53:09] <dutchfish> ah yes
[11:53:18] <Loetmichel> if you mean the RC-simulator, i made it myself ;-)
[11:53:49] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, and the spindle collet part?
[11:54:22] <Loetmichel> thats a spare part you can buy for 8 eur from a Proxxon FBS 230 ;)
[11:54:31] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, ah ok
[11:54:47] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, that setup should be great for pcb milling i suppose
[11:55:09] <dutchfish> (high rpm and low torque)
[11:56:10] <Loetmichel> if you use std 608 ball bearings i recommend to wahs them in car fuel (whats "benzin" in english?) and oil them afterwards. they get way to hot with grease in them when turning 20kRPM++
[11:56:32] <Loetmichel> oh, the Model plane outrunners have plenty torque
[11:56:35] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, i understand benzine (gasoline)
[11:56:48] <Loetmichel> maybe triple that of a std dremel
[11:56:55] <Loetmichel> at same rpm range
[11:57:04] <Loetmichel> gasoline it was, thanks
[11:57:10] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, what power?
[11:57:24] <Loetmichel> 12V from an PC atx Supply
[11:57:44] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, no i ment P (power) Watts
[11:58:01] <Loetmichel> ah, the little one on the pic 200W
[11:58:21] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, thats double the amount of the dremel, nice
[11:58:24] <Loetmichel> but i have build the same with an 900W inrunner that can do 50krpm ;)
[11:58:39] <dutchfish> wow
[11:58:48] <dutchfish> i am after low rpm myself
[11:59:01] <dutchfish> between 2k and 8k rpm
[11:59:04] <Loetmichel> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=436 <- and ceramic 608 bearings ;-)
[11:59:29] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, is that one Y or Delta config?
[11:59:36] <Loetmichel> no idea
[11:59:47] <Loetmichel> i think delta
[11:59:52] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, polyphase?
[12:00:28] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, if it is 3 to 8 polyphase, that would be nice for lower rpm's at higher torque
[12:00:37] <Loetmichel> sure, if you meant more than 3 "poles" in the stator
[12:00:42] <dutchfish> yes
[12:00:53] <dutchfish> 8 poles 3 phase
[12:01:15] <Loetmichel> the outrunners are usually better for low rpm high torque
[12:01:50] <dutchfish> most if not all of the copter motors are les spoles
[12:01:54] <Loetmichel> because the longer leverage for the mangets sitting in the bell compared to the inrunners where they are glued to the shaft
[12:01:56] <dutchfish> less*
[12:03:36] <Loetmichel> i personally would use something like this for a Spindle: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__16231__NTM_Prop_Drive_35_48_Series_900KV_815W.html

[12:11:38] <dutchfish> Loetmichel, what supply and driver that thing needs?
[12:11:55] <Loetmichel> btw: if you use these: you can mount any toool up to 8mm diameter with the right collet: http://www.ebay.de/itm/C8-ER11A-150L-Zylinderschaft-Spannzangenhalter-Werkzeughalter-CNC-Drehmaschine-/261832997063

[12:13:12] <Loetmichel> you can use a Halogen light toroid and a fitting rectifier/filtering caps, they are cheap and up to the job
[12:13:35] <Loetmichel> no regulation needed, the ESC can cope with varying voltage
[12:17:14] <Loetmichel> you can even get away with a 450W transformer if you monitor its temperature
[12:18:22] <Loetmichel> the toroid will likely be mor "thermal slow" than the motor itself.
[12:19:19] -!- Gurwinder has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[12:21:31] <SpeedEvil> All the halogen light thingies you can buy are not transformers
[12:21:50] <SpeedEvil> They're wierd-ass AC SMPSs with ~2.5* nominal output peaks
[12:22:47] <Jymmm> http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__64843__HobbyKing_Red_Brick_70A_ESC.html
[12:24:10] <Loetmichel> SpeedEvil: thats why i said "TOROID"
[12:24:23] <Loetmichel> there ARE some real transformers out there
[12:24:29] <SpeedEvil> There are nicer ESCs that can be reflashed, and controlled over I2C or whatever
[12:24:44] <SpeedEvil> Loetmichel: fair enough - I have heard people call them toroids when referring to the generic though
[12:26:05] <Loetmichel> dutchfish: the CNC router i am building for a co-worker has the complete Electronics in the base...

[16:50:40] <pcw_home> but have a couple days of ind temp testing ahead of that
[16:52:29] -!- per_sonne_ has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
[16:55:10] <pcw_home> if you can still talk to the 7I90 its probably OK
[16:55:12] <pcw_home> (I dont think anything important runs on 5V on the 7I90 except the bus
[16:55:13] <pcw_home> switch divider and thats probably ok up to 10V or so)
[17:01:30] <pcw_home> Wonder if a failing VR is what happened to your first card set?
[17:01:32] <pcw_home> ( a 5.5v crowbar might not be a bad idea)
[17:19:24] -!- SB_ has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[17:21:28] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, the supply went bad then i noticed 20v on it's display for a sec before i could hit the switch. i'm planning to add a crowbar but haven't gotten to it yet
[17:21:41] <Tom_itx> however i tested some other 5v stuff and it was ok
[17:21:50] <Tom_itx> the MPG is still ok
[17:22:43] <Tom_itx> pcw_home, no i think operator error happened to the first set
[17:22:48] <pcw_home> most everything on the 7I90 runs from 3.3V (or 1.2V)
[17:23:18] <Tom_itx> well i wasn't able to see any IO on P2
[17:23:22] <Tom_itx> activity
[17:23:36] <Tom_itx> i thought about trying the 3rd plug to see
[17:23:44] <Tom_itx> in case it was a buffer
[17:23:57] <pcw_home> wonder if the loopback test we use could be ported to mesaflash
[17:24:36] <Tom_itx> i was probing them pin by pin with a GND wire watching hal configuration
[17:25:26] <micges> pcw_home: simple out -> in test on all pins?
[17:25:52] <pcw_home> (connect all three I/O connectors together and does a rotating 1's and 0's from 1-2 2-3 3-1 2-1
[17:26:00] <Tom_itx> i'd just finished getting things ready to test too...
[17:26:01] <Tom_itx> dammit
[17:27:41] <Tom_itx> i could test the 7i47s on the pcie card you sent but i'd have to set up a pc for that
[17:32:50] <Tom_itx> i thought the 5v fuse might have popped but it didn't

[22:51:14] <dgmurdockiii> is there a good stander for making your own cnc machine like kinda like there is with 3d printers and reprap
[22:52:15] <SpeedEvil> No.
[22:52:18] <malcom2073> dgmurdockiii: What do you mean standard? Design?
[22:52:22] <malcom2073> There's no real standard for reprap
[22:52:23] <SpeedEvil> Because tehre is enormous different requirements.
[22:52:26] <jthornton> stander?
[22:52:45] <SpeedEvil> For reprap - all that is needed is to hold and position a nozzle semi-accurately over a bed, fairly repeatably.
[22:53:17] <SpeedEvil> For CNC, you add the requirement to hold against a possibly large cutting force, and have a head several to several thousand times heavier than an extruder.
[22:53:39] <dgmurdockiii> yeah
[22:53:41] <malcom2073> When in doubt: Add a ton (literally, 2000lbs)
[22:54:06] <SpeedEvil> If you're CNCing polystyrene foam, then your machine is going to be a hell of a lot heavier than if you want to take deep cuts in stainless steel
[22:54:21] <dgmurdockiii> i wonder if there somthing the community reprap has with forms and wiki for diycnc
[22:54:30] <dgmurdockiii> that all really
[22:54:42] <SpeedEvil> A machine that is capable of 'all' most home-shop people would like to do is likely to weigh several tons
[22:54:45] <malcom2073> Check out cnczone
[22:54:58] <malcom2073> There are tons of diy CNC machines there, of a wide variety of types and capabilities
[22:55:06] <SpeedEvil> (something that can replace a lathe, mill, drill-press, ...)
[22:55:20] <jthornton> dgmurdockiii, have you looked on the LinuxCNC wiki?
[22:55:21] <SpeedEvil> And cost a lot to make.
[22:55:38] <SpeedEvil> The more you compromise, the cheaper and easier it gets
[22:55:57] <SpeedEvil> The more you spend, the easier it gets
[22:56:53] <jthornton> you can build a cnc mill with skate bearings and all thread and you end up with just that
[22:57:13] <malcom2073> My favorite is drawer slides

[23:13:05] <SpeedEvil> I'd want to print stuff wider than filliment

[23:13:16] <malcom2073> They make 1.2mm nozzles now
[23:13:23] <SpeedEvil> yes.
[23:13:29] <malcom2073> That huge machine Capt linked wouldn't be bad for concrete
[23:13:31] <SpeedEvil> But a cubic foot of plastic is exspensive
[23:13:35] <malcom2073> True
[23:13:52] <SpeedEvil> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/321210152209 - for example
[23:13:56] <SpeedEvil> this is glassfibre filliment.
[23:14:15] <SpeedEvil> It would need to be run through a polymer so that it was not corroded by concrete.
[23:14:33] <SpeedEvil> But, you could then coextrude concrete and this and get reinforced concrete.
[23:15:08] <SpeedEvil> (it's not very good reinforced concrete, unless you can prestress it but it's a hell of a lot better than bare.
[23:15:16] <malcom2073> yeah was about to say
[23:15:24] <malcom2073> may be better off getting the concrete with the fibers in the mix
[23:15:52] <malcom2073> Or designing it to allow rebar holes, and then flow more concrete in at the end after sticking the rebar inside?
[23:15:55] <SpeedEvil> That's mainly for crack control - it can't take any significant strain
[23:16:18] <SpeedEvil> you can also have rebar and simply stress it with threads at the ends.
[23:16:26] <malcom2073> The chinese "3d printed house" prints a hollow shell, then they stick in rebar and pour normal concrete for the inside
[23:16:28] <SpeedEvil> without actual mechanical fixing along the length
[23:17:20] <malcom2073> That ebay link: "Excellent choppablility"
[23:17:22] <malcom2073> I like that
[23:17:35] <SpeedEvil> It's designed for putting through sprayguns
[23:17:40] <SpeedEvil> with a leetle blade
[23:17:48] <malcom2073> yeah I saw them on some show once
[23:17:55] <SpeedEvil> I am planning to play with pulltrusion
[23:17:56] <malcom2073> Fiberglassing I think?
[23:18:01] <SpeedEvil> yes
[23:18:32] <SpeedEvil> I need to order some UV catalyst
[23:20:02] <malcom2073> Man, I need to order a mesa board. This CNC is sitting in my garage taunting me

[23:44:26] <furrywolf> my 3g hotspot stopped connecting to 3g. would just stick at "connecting to 3g". apparantly virgin killed the unlimited 4g plan, and in the process, killed the accounts of everyone on it, such that the hotspots couldn't even get on the cell network.
[23:44:44] <furrywolf> the tech support guy's comment was "we had a lot of problems".
[23:45:28] <furrywolf> at least the hold time was less than 30 seconds, and he already knew what was wrong and how to fix it. have to give them credit for that at least.

[23:46:05] <SpeedEvil> Is it fixed?
[23:46:11] <furrywolf> I started building my enclosure today... got all the cutting done. 6 plates and 11 angles.
[23:46:12] <furrywolf> yes
[23:46:17] <SpeedEvil> :)
[23:46:20] <SpeedEvil> :)
[23:46:54] <furrywolf> I love carbide metal cutting blades. I cut around 20ft of 1/8" aluminum plate with my cordless saw, effortlessly.
[23:47:15] <SpeedEvil> Well, HSS would have done that too I expect
[23:47:48] <furrywolf> 20 linear feet of cut, in a cordless tool, on a fraction of a battery charge? I doubt it.
[23:49:09] <furrywolf> also, there's something very sexy about a dustpan full of bright shiny alu chips. I need to find a use for them one of these days. :P
[23:50:52] <SpeedEvil> furrywolf: got rust?
[23:51:06] <furrywolf> ?
[23:51:12] <furrywolf> chips, not powder. :)
[23:51:20] <SpeedEvil> You just need more of it.
[23:51:24] <SpeedEvil> And a bigger initiator
[23:54:56] <furrywolf> grrr, the guy at virgin stuck me on the wrong plan.
[23:57:27] <furrywolf> he put me on the $35/2gb plan, not the $55/5gb plan, even though he asked twice and I told him the right one twice.
