[02:06:26] <_DJ_> moin
[08:23:46] <PetefromTn_> Good Morning to all my LinuxCNC friends..
[08:23:58] <_DJ_> good morning pete
[08:24:12] <_DJ_> (hm, it's already afternoon here ;-))
[08:24:13] <Loetmichel> good morning pete
[08:24:39] <Loetmichel> ... hmmm... pete... now i have the jingle from the webcomic in my ears again...
[08:26:01] <Loetmichel> http://www.ruthe.de/video/video_pete.php
[08:26:41] <PetefromTn_> Yeah I know it is not morning everywhere but it is a BEAutiful morning here in East Tennessee..
[08:27:23] <_DJ_> lol Loetmichel
[08:28:01] <PetefromTn_> I'd watch that but I doubt I would understand any of it LOL..
[08:28:16] <Loetmichel> thats not necessary
[08:28:39] <PetefromTn_> Loetmichel: Hey man do you live anywhere near the Walther Factory?
[08:29:02] <Loetmichel> its about an alien that assists a mad scientist as a test candidate.
[08:29:35] <Loetmichel> jingle means: "pete... take this pill and we lokk what happens"
[08:29:36] <Loetmichel> ;-)
[08:29:42] <PetefromTn_> LOL..
[08:30:31] <PetefromTn_> The Walther Airgun branch recently came out with a rifle called the LGV, it is a spring piston driven air rifle that is apparently quite nice and I am wondering if you have ever seen one?
[08:31:23] <Loetmichel> PetefromTn: i dont know whre the company is
[08:31:55] <PetefromTn_> Apparently it is in ULM Germany..
[08:32:11] <Loetmichel> ulm... lets look...
[08:32:34] <PetefromTn_> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fafkz5E78QQ
[08:32:35] <Tecan> (fafkz5E78QQ) "TEST: Walther LGV Competition Ultra air rifle" by "AirgunTV" is "Sports" - Length: 0:08:41
[08:32:37] <Loetmichel> 302km away
[08:33:11] <PetefromTn_> thats 185 miles not too bad really LOL
[08:33:39] <kengu> not even half the country
[08:34:09] <Loetmichel> kengu: "in the neighborhood" so to speak ;-)
[08:35:04] <PetefromTn_> yeah, why don't you head down there and have a look at one for me, better yet buy one and ship it to me here since I am such a nice fellow ROFL
[08:39:00] <PetefromTn_> Apparently the Weirauch Factory is also there in Germany, They make one of my favorite airguns the HW97. They are in a town called Zella-Mehlis.
[08:40:27] <Loetmichel> PetefromTn: i would... if there werent some regulations about owning air rifles above a certain energy in germany. ;=)
[08:41:13] <PetefromTn_> Yeah I heard that. It is like 7 joules or something no?
[08:41:23] <Loetmichel> IIRC: yes
[08:43:24] <PetefromTn_> That's less than six foot pounds.. Wow thats slow.
[08:44:02] <PetefromTn_> that would propel the average field pellet at like less than 500 Feet per second.
[08:44:16] <kengu> what ever
[08:44:27] <kengu> i am still waiting for some mesa cards to arrive
[08:44:38] <kengu> or I am not sure if they were ordered already
[08:44:45] <kengu> but still waiting (:
[08:44:50] <PetefromTn_> When did you order them?
[08:45:25] <kengu> i just gave an order request so .. i am pretty sure that the order is not in or out yet
[08:46:00] <kengu> might need to figure out another way of getting the plasma to work when I get tired of waiting for the process
[08:47:18] <PetefromTn_> Aah you are building a plasma cutter CNC then, nice..
[08:47:55] <kengu> PetefromTn_: i have a chinese cutter
[08:48:17] <PetefromTn_> chinese CNC or Chinese plasma machine?
[08:48:42] <kengu> chinese cnc
[08:50:13] <PetefromTn_> Whats the travels?
[08:53:39] <kengu> https://www.dropbox.com/s/zpm78idalzfjibq/20130616_002.jpg some 2,5m*1,5m
[08:55:11] <PetefromTn_> Wow that looks pretty nice and has some large travels. Is it servo or stepper?
[08:55:31] <kengu> stepper
[08:55:50] <PetefromTn_> Which cards were you going to use?
[08:56:19] <kengu> Mesa 6i25 + Mesa 7i76
[08:57:12] <PetefromTn_> Nice... I used the 5i25/7i77 combo for my servo VMC, very happy so far.
[09:01:33] <PetefromTn_> LOL still here
[12:13:51] <IchGuckLive> hi all B)

[13:08:44] <JesusAlos> but, how must I do? stepconf oly have XYZ axyx by default
[13:13:43] <IchGuckLive> use your ind and put in the lines your own are you using mesa card for the outtput
[13:14:54] <JesusAlos> i must do manyally modifing .ini and .hal files?
[13:17:01] <IchGuckLive> ini anda hal yes
[13:17:09] <IchGuckLive> are you using Parport
[13:20:13] <JesusAlos> yes parport
[13:20:30] <IchGuckLive> i mail you a config
[13:21:23] <IchGuckLive> but there is a Foam sim mashine that holds the 4 lines you need
[13:23:35] <JesusAlos> where is the sim?

[13:29:41] <IchGuckLive> i got a Rotation axis for cutting shapes
[13:30:44] <JesusAlos> mmm... good
[13:31:13] <JesusAlos> do you use Heekscam for rotation?
[13:32:16] <CaptHindsight> IchGuckLive: what type of router design has worked out best for you with travels over 1 meter?
[13:33:03] <IchGuckLive> i use rack and pinian to 2,5m
[13:33:16] <IchGuckLive> then i use belt to 7,5m
[13:33:24] <IchGuckLive> then all is just chain

[14:18:35] <_DJ_> hrhr
[14:19:25] <CaptHindsight> they just started fracking there as well
[15:03:28] <JesusAlos> there are any way to create spindle speed profiles
[15:04:04] <JesusAlos> example: button in axis "Speed1" "Speed2" etc
[15:10:04] <andypugh> JesusAlos: Yes
[15:10:42] <andypugh> But no built-in ways
[15:11:46] <JesusAlos> you say I must create component?
[15:11:51] <andypugh> Do the buttons need to work while a G-code program is running?
[15:12:14] <JesusAlos> yes
[15:12:15] <JesusAlos> must modificate in running
[15:14:26] <andypugh> Does the S-word in G-code also need to work?
[15:16:22] <JesusAlos> not neceseray
[15:16:42] <JesusAlos> not neccesary
[15:21:09] <andypugh> OK, in that case just set up a set of radio buttons in PyVCP that control a MUX that directly feeds the spindle output
[15:23:33] <JesusAlos> undestand
[15:23:58] <JesusAlos> thank
[15:28:40] <andypugh> You might still want to link spindle-is-on to the "enable" channel of whatever drives your spindle.
[15:29:06] <kwallace> I take it that a speed profile is desired, rather than a single value?

[19:28:09] <nlancaster> hello all, anyone know anything about mach3? and it may be something that is a common issue on other controller software. I appear to be losing many steps when changing directions.
[19:28:40] <nlancaster> Steps per in: 400
[19:28:40] <nlancaster> IPM: 200
[19:28:40] <nlancaster> Accel: 20
[19:28:40] <nlancaster> Step pulse: 1
[19:28:40] <nlancaster> Dir pulse: 5
[19:28:58] <nlancaster> and if I cycle the axis .5 inches it loses/gains more and more steps
[19:29:17] <PetefromTn_> Hello
[19:29:17] <jdh> lower the accel. then switch to LinuxCNC.
[19:32:49] <nlancaster> how low should I go, and I tried everything between 2 and 20 with similar results
[19:33:48] <MacGalempsy> evening
[19:39:07] <panasync> sounds like something slipping. does it only happen in one axis?
[19:49:39] <nlancaster> panasync no it happens in x any y. z is fine
[19:49:47] <nlancaster> x and y are on 5start 2turn per inch lead screws.
[19:50:11] <FinboySlick> Anyone here has an idea of the kind of amperage that a typical american car horn needs to start? I'd have expected 2.5 amps of 12V DC to do but it just clicks once.
[19:51:18] <FinboySlick> I sort of top at 2.5 amps anyway so I'll have to look for a stronger supply later.
[19:57:21] <PetefromTn_> Evening Mac...howsitgoin?
[20:02:32] <nlancaster> could pusle width help?
[20:10:16] <FinboySlick> Oh wow, it's up to 20 amps... Gonna have to rethink my plans.
[20:10:39] <Tom_itx> heh
[20:10:57] <FinboySlick> Thought I could test with a little wall wart.
[20:15:19] <Tom_itx> test it with a car battery
[20:15:19] <FinboySlick> The plan is called: "Operation startled frenchman."
[20:15:19] <FinboySlick> Comming soon to a youtube near you.
[20:15:19] <FinboySlick> It's the hiding a car battery under his desk bit that I'm concerned about.
[20:15:20] <FinboySlick> Tom_itx: You think a typical USB port would be enough to excite a 30A automotive-type relay?
[20:15:20] <FinboySlick> Or will I have to add 5v relay to start the 12v relay?
[20:22:11] <FinboySlick> Oooh, power drill battery!
[20:22:34] <FinboySlick> OK, I'm set for a power source.
[20:26:20] <Tom_itx> no USB is not enough
[20:27:01] <Tom_itx> 100ma without asking permission then you get 400ma iirc maybe 500ma
[20:27:41] <FinboySlick> That wouldn't excite the relay?
[20:28:41] <FinboySlick> Hmmm, I think I have a 5v driven SSR here, I could use that to trigger the 12v magnetic relay I guess.
[20:28:45] <Tom_itx> not a 12v relay
[20:50:48] <NickParker> If it's only meant to fire once and not for very long, why not an FET?
[20:51:14] <NickParker> I have a whole bag of FETs that are rated for 33A sustained current, and they're like 50 cents
[20:52:42] <skunkworks> make sure they can dissipate enough wattage...
