[07:17:31] <ju-emb> the post yesterday on mailinglist about hostmot2 on ....12.04 rtai-2
[07:17:33] <ju-emb> and Michaels hint to look in dmesg brings the following
[07:17:37] <ju-emb> hm2/hhm2/hm2_5i23.0: firmware hm2/5i23/SVST4_8.BIT not found
[07:20:00] <ju-emb> correct dmesg line:
[07:20:03] <ju-emb> hm2/hm2_5i23.0: firmware hm2/5i23/SVST4_8.BIT not found
[08:41:24] <KGB-linuxcnc> 03Norbert Schechner 05master dc35fbb 06linuxcnc 10(7 files in 2 dirs) gladevcp - included new widget JogWheel * 14http://git.linuxcnc.org/?p=linuxcnc.git;a=commitdiff;h=dc35fbb
[09:36:17] <norbert> I am trying to update docs/src/gui/gladevcp.txt, but when I do asciidoc -n gladevcp.txt , I get a lot of errors, that sections are not found and even on an unchanged document I got a result with a lot of mistakes and sections without header. Can someone give me a hand please
[10:09:51] <pcw_home> hm2/hm2_5i23.0: firmware hm2/5i23/SVST4_8.BIT not found
[10:09:53] <pcw_home> probably just means you have not fetched the hostmot2 firmware
[10:18:58] <pcw_home> well crap axis.N.joint-vel-cmd is a backwards difference so not suitable for correct FF1
[10:24:24] <pcw_home> motion hardware would really really really like forward differences (how to get to the next waypoint)
[10:38:49] <KGB-linuxcnc> 03Norbert Schechner 05master c805b42 06linuxcnc 10docs/src/gui/gladevcp.txt 03docs/src/gui/images/JogWheel.png gladevcp - JogWheel - added documentation of the widget * 14http://git.linuxcnc.org/?p=linuxcnc.git;a=commitdiff;h=c805b42
[10:39:39] <pcw_home> Its not a huge error but it means for example with a perfect
[10:39:40] <pcw_home> velocity mode servo, there is a unfixable folloeing error of
[10:39:42] <pcw_home> about 300 uInch at 1KHz servo thread rate and 300 in/sec^2 accel
[13:16:33] <seb_kuzminsky> ju-emb: try 'apt-get install hostmot2-firmware-5i23'
[17:35:13] <JT-Shop> well crumb, I found a bug in the Stepconf wizard. If you select the pyvcp spindle speed and pick spindle phase a for an input the spindle-at-speed signal is not created in the main hal file so the custom_postgui.hal file throws an error when it tries to sets spindle-at-speed true
[17:41:35] <JT-Shop> looks like no matter what you select for inputs and outputs spindle-at-speed is not created before the sets
[17:54:23] <JT-Shop> Looks like the Include connections to HAL cause the problem, if you uncheck it the config will load but the spindle speed will not work of course
[18:07:14] <JT-Shop> seems like it is a two step procedure as you have to have Use Spindle at speed checked if you add a pyvcp spindle speed meter
[18:39:00] <KGB-linuxcnc> 03John Thornton 05master 671341a 06linuxcnc 10docs/src/hal/hal-examples.txt Docs: update to show new pin added to hal_manualtoolchange * 14http://git.linuxcnc.org/?p=linuxcnc.git;a=commitdiff;h=671341a
