01:14 AM Loetmichel: XXCoder: it gets as low as 5F here in central germany regularily...
01:17 AM XXCoder: it rarely gets below 32f here.
01:17 AM Loetmichel: 29F.. thats barely freezing water... :-)
01:17 AM XXCoder: huge ocean effect and mountains on other side
01:17 AM XXCoder: big inlet sea helps also
01:17 AM * Loetmichel is regularily out in tshirt and jeans shoveling snow from the driveway :-) -> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=10135
01:17 AM XXCoder: lol
01:18 AM Loetmichel: not this year so far though :-)
01:18 AM XXCoder: more coats eh heh
02:12 AM Deejay: moin
03:04 AM sensille: does linuxcnc has a mode to run any axis up to an electrical contact, e.g. to use to find the top of the (conducting) workpiece?
03:05 AM XXCoder: no, but there is scripts to do so./
03:09 AM sensille: i only find scripts that produce g-code. so can gcode 'probe' on inputs?
03:10 AM XXCoder: you remap m6 to script
03:11 AM XXCoder: unfortunately thats extent of my knowledge
03:13 AM sensille: is there a "standard" connector to use for endstops?
03:14 AM sensille: some 2-pin + shield?
03:17 AM sensille: Loetmichel: you used d-sub 9, right? why all on one connector?
03:32 AM sensille: i think i go for 3x stereo audio jack
03:32 AM XXCoder: why not
03:33 AM XXCoder: just design it in such way you cant acciently connect stepper input to switch lol
03:58 AM gloops: just wire them all to to same input pin
03:59 AM XXCoder: hey gloops
03:59 AM gloops: anyway off out lol
03:59 AM gloops: hi and bye
03:59 AM XXCoder: rude. bye
03:59 AM XXCoder: ;)
04:00 AM MarcelineVQ: :>
04:00 AM MarcelineVQ: my back hurts, https://adventofcode.com/ is bad for me
04:00 AM XXCoder: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-Wii-Lot-FOR-PARTS-REPAIR-Controllers-System-Power-Bar-Not-Working/183540154291 lol
04:00 AM XXCoder: may be deal for someone
04:00 AM XXCoder: "The system itself has been tested and does work but the cords to connect to the TV is not included so it is not in working condition."
04:01 AM XXCoder: not clear if wii output is broken or he state its broken because it didnt come with cable
04:01 AM sensille: all on one input isn't even as stupid as it sounds, unless you boot with an axis in a home position
04:01 AM MarcelineVQ: suspicious, but it's 25$, that's less than you'd get the controllers for anyway
04:02 AM XXCoder: yeah
04:02 AM MarcelineVQ: I need to find a ps3, it's gonna be rough finding one that works, they were garbage
04:02 AM MarcelineVQ: disc reader tended to quit
04:03 AM XXCoder: theres bunch of "for repair" ones in ebay'
04:03 AM XXCoder: you might be able to cobble a working one
04:03 AM XXCoder: thoygh if all has a flaw in common you might not be able to
04:04 AM MarcelineVQ: cobbling post-ps1 consoles isn't the most rewarding endeavour hehe
04:04 AM MarcelineVQ: But we'll see what's out there I guess
04:06 AM XXCoder: if wii post says "no games to test" its likely dead dvd drive but dont wanna say
04:06 AM XXCoder: common flaw apparently
04:06 AM MarcelineVQ: gosh they're still 150$ haha
04:07 AM XXCoder: theres 150 one ps3 2 xbox 2 wii
04:07 AM XXCoder: 130 ps3 games for 60 lol
04:08 AM XXCoder: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-5-PlayStation-3-PS3-FAT-Black-Consoles-BROKEN-AS-IS-For-Parts-Or-Repair/142994398281
04:08 AM XXCoder: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Wholesale-Lot-Of-4-Sony-PlayStation-3-Fat-PS3-Video-Game-Consoles-AS-IS-Parts/223219074180 40 bucks lol
04:09 AM MarcelineVQ: 4 fat's for 40$, no way any part of them works haha
04:09 AM XXCoder: actually likely they all has something in common issue
04:09 AM XXCoder: if you have skills could troubleshoot by swapping parts
04:10 AM MarcelineVQ: maybe, I don't have a microscope and a 300$ soldering station though hehe. might have to wait for good ps3 emulation if one I buy is just gonna die like the rest ;(
04:11 AM XXCoder: very few generation 1 xbox 360 lives now
04:11 AM XXCoder: nearly all have had 3 red light by now
04:11 AM XXCoder: youtube channel my mate vernce is very interesting
04:12 AM XXCoder: hes unskilled but he manages to fix sometimes
04:13 AM XXCoder: https://www.youtube.com/user/mymatevince
04:14 AM XXCoder: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTllaPTqfho&index=2&list=PLexbWs0Wp_H6COq2hgTs7V1b1ZdzEfVeE job lot of 2ds
04:14 AM XXCoder: if zi remember right he made 2 working ones
04:14 AM MarcelineVQ: that's neato, I jailbroke my 3ds so I could play super nintendo on it hehe
04:15 AM XXCoder: nice
04:15 AM XXCoder: oh yeah all of em had screen issues but yeah
04:16 AM MarcelineVQ: it's funny that the ones with more standard screens would have screen issues
04:16 AM MarcelineVQ: I never did use the 3d feature, tended to blur the game
04:18 AM XXCoder: fun
04:21 AM XXCoder: i like ones that seller list whats wrong with all ones
04:21 AM XXCoder: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Big-Lot-of-9-Nintendo-2DS-White-Red-Super-Mario-in-Box-Broken-Repair-Fix/132791400016 example
04:21 AM XXCoder: 7 and probably 8 has dead screenbs
04:28 AM MarcelineVQ: yeah, kids are hard on screens
04:29 AM XXCoder: yeah. the listing I posted it seems only one, or ponentally 2, has broken screen. surpsing.
04:29 AM XXCoder: so many has broken shoulder buttons tho
04:29 AM XXCoder: volume is broken on many also
04:30 AM MarcelineVQ: weird, the thing I'd worry about wearing out on mine is the joystick, feels likes it's made of rubber bands hehe
04:30 AM XXCoder: 4 volume broken
04:30 AM XXCoder: one shoulder guess I was thinking of other lot
04:30 AM MarcelineVQ: look garound ps3 emulation seems to be coming along so I might be able to skip the system problem, I'll need to get a 6-axis sort of controller still since the games I want to play require it
04:32 AM XXCoder: 320 bucks is too much even if I probably could make 3 fully functional ones. more skilled could recover 6
04:32 AM XXCoder: volume probably just needs desolder and resoldering
04:33 AM MarcelineVQ: I don't even know how you'd break the volume slider, unless the internal thing is what's wearing out and it's just cheap or something.
04:33 AM XXCoder: pressed too hard likly
04:33 AM MarcelineVQ: you'e more likely to bust off the sd-card door or the 3d-toggle
04:34 AM MarcelineVQ: maybe hard use yeah, it doesn't press in though it's a fairly stout slider
04:39 AM XXCoder: how much amps can 22 gauge push?
04:39 AM XXCoder: ehh dont look usable for cnc machine nm
04:39 AM XXCoder: https://www.ebay.com/itm/200FT-4-Conductor-22-Gauge-Shielded-Cable-Copper-by-M-S-Type-CL2-Wire-on-Spool/132627934890
04:46 AM MarcelineVQ: not a whole heck of a lot, 1A as a bundle, 7A for chassis
04:47 AM XXCoder: yeah doubted it
04:47 AM XXCoder: my machine need better wires later, one with actual connectors not breakout bars
04:47 AM MarcelineVQ: this is solid wire too so you wouldn't want it for any moving/vibrating parts
04:47 AM MarcelineVQ: at least it looks solid
04:48 AM MarcelineVQ: doesn't say stranded
04:49 AM jthornton: morning
04:49 AM XXCoder: hey
04:49 AM XXCoder: marc yeah hard to tell but whatever other stats dont match
04:58 AM Jin|away is now known as Jin^eLD
05:02 AM Jin^eLD: morning
05:08 AM Loetmichel: sensille: because that way i had only to poke one hole into the encosure. (Dsub9 for all the ref switches)
05:09 AM Loetmichel: <- lazy fu** ;)
05:09 AM XXCoder: lol
05:10 AM XXCoder: it comes with nice bonus of being impossible to connect wrong
05:10 AM XXCoder: like y to x
05:11 AM sensille: Loetmichel: ok. as i assume it's much harder for me to poke a d-sub-shaped hole i just go for 3x audio jack <- different kind of laziness :)
05:11 AM Loetmichel: sensille:i have a Dsub9 punch
05:12 AM Loetmichel: its one 10mm hole for me and then screw in the punch... *KNACK* done, including the dsub screw holes ;)
05:13 AM XXCoder: whats power rating on d connector?
05:13 AM XXCoder: considering it for machine connections in future
05:13 AM Loetmichel: 1,2 to 2A per pin, depending on manufacturer
05:13 AM Loetmichel: 3A works too, but is outside of spec
05:14 AM Loetmichel: and 125V between pins IIRC
05:14 AM XXCoder: i cant recall what my steppers use, but I think its 1a
05:14 AM Loetmichel: that'll work great then
05:14 AM Loetmichel: did the same on my home CNC
05:15 AM XXCoder: cool
05:15 AM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=10606
05:15 AM XXCoder: i have abosutely no room to work on cnc so it may be while.
05:15 AM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=10603
05:16 AM XXCoder: achy connectors ;)
05:16 AM Loetmichel: ... had a little mishap with aluminium swarf... -> http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=10609
05:16 AM Loetmichel: achy?
05:17 AM XXCoder: achey silly name of body pain :P
05:17 AM XXCoder: plus a typo. delberate mispelling of your label lol
05:18 AM Loetmichel: and that enclosure is made of 2mm Alu-dibond so it DOES conduct under the white paint
05:19 AM Loetmichel: its really astonishing how small a hole can be for swarf to find a way in ;)
05:20 AM XXCoder: bah chips dont need any hole
05:20 AM XXCoder: it will just come just in tinme to annoy you ;)
05:20 AM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12533&g2_imageViewsIndex=1 <- there it is, left side under the spindle coolant bucket
05:22 AM Loetmichel: i now have the electronics on the back side of the CNC... not really enclosed though: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12808
05:22 AM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=12811
05:22 AM Loetmichel: :-)
05:22 AM XXCoder: yeah those sides is enough to block pretty good eprcent of swarf.
05:23 AM Tom_L: 30°F Hi 34
05:25 AM Loetmichel: will have to enclose it completely evenatually, wife is not amused when i walk from the hobby room to the rest of the flat and spread silver dust everywhere ;)
05:25 AM XXCoder: you mill silver? or alum? :P
05:25 AM Tom_L: been there done that :_)
05:26 AM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_itemId=14040&g2_imageViewsIndex=1 <- thats how it looks now
05:26 AM Loetmichel: silvery
05:26 AM Loetmichel: of course aluminium
06:18 AM XXCoder: MarcelineVQ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6dAqMJJLaw new repair video!
06:19 AM MarcelineVQ: vita was a pretty good handheld
06:30 AM XXCoder: watr damage looks like
06:30 AM XXCoder: "it totally just stopped worked. totally."
06:34 AM XXCoder: or maybe its slow buildup by sweaty palms while playing games?
06:35 AM sync: ugh, you can tell that he doesn't really have the equipment and experience to do such repairs
06:35 AM MarcelineVQ: or playing on the shiter
06:35 AM XXCoder: maybe
06:35 AM XXCoder: sync: yep! he is honest and says so
06:36 AM XXCoder: and videos say "trying to fix" not "repair of"
06:36 AM XXCoder: honestly hes doing better than I would be
06:36 AM XXCoder: I want to try to fix my tablet but im not sure if I can.
06:36 AM XXCoder: definitely wiping it first in case I fail
06:38 AM MarcelineVQ: reccomend you watch some louis rossman videos before you do, if for no other reason than to become familiar with paul danials boardview software
06:38 AM XXCoder: lol ok
06:39 AM MarcelineVQ: that and he's fun
06:39 AM XXCoder: sync: I like his video because he kinda avoid the "we all know this" effect
06:42 AM XXCoder: dunno about trying to clean
06:42 AM XXCoder: i would probably remove port completely for better clean
07:34 AM XXCoder: MarcelineVQ: this guy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCiHLtWHupI
07:34 AM MarcelineVQ: yep
07:34 AM XXCoder: ok
07:34 AM MarcelineVQ: I just tried emualting a ps3 game, I wouldn't have believed it but it emualtes better than ps2 ones already, amazing
07:34 AM XXCoder: wow nice
07:35 AM MarcelineVQ: Need to cobble my was passed the motion controls for the game but otherwise it's p. good
07:38 AM XXCoder: ioff to bed later
07:49 AM Karlheinz: Hallo miteinander kann mir jemand helfen? Ich such den Mann der in YouTube Videos über linuxcnc gemacht hat. Er hat Maschinen für die Berufsschule gemacht. Die Videos sind alle gelöscht kann mir da jemand weiterhelfen
07:50 AM XXCoder: glad i delayed going to bed heh
07:51 AM XXCoder: youre clearly talking about ich but dunno what youre saying. lemme use google trabnslate
07:51 AM XXCoder: Entschuldigung, aber jemand kam herein und sagte, er sei gestorben und Videos gelöscht.
07:51 AM XXCoder: hope translate makes sense./
07:52 AM XXCoder: war vor ein paar Monaten.
07:54 AM Karlheinz: Das tut mir aber sehr leid . danke für die Information
07:54 AM XXCoder: Das tut mir aber sehr leid . danke für die Information
07:54 AM XXCoder: oops paste fail
07:55 AM XXCoder: Kein Problem, nur Wunschvideos wurden nicht gelöscht.
07:56 AM Karlheinz: Wie finde ich die Wunsch Videos
07:58 AM XXCoder: soweit ich weiß, existiert es jetzt nicht mehr. leider, und ich gehe später ins Bett. Vielleicht finden andere Leute mehr über cnc und linuxcnc.
08:00 AM Karlheinz: Danke nochmals. gute Nacht
08:58 AM zeeshan: hi
08:59 AM zeeshan: has anyone ever experienced a belt conveyor belt going slack and then tight as it rotates?
09:01 AM zeeshan: https://i.imgur.com/FAF9boH.png
09:02 AM zeeshan: thats what the conveyor looks like. one of the belt goes tight and then slacks as it rotates on the conveyor.. so confused.
09:10 AM jesseg: zeeshan, well, is the tight/slack cycle syncronized to the rotation of the belt or of the drive wheels?
09:27 AM flyback: or a pulley with a *CANUCKED* spot on it
10:20 AM Loetmichel: *gnHIHI* coworker just tried to cook an espresso for all of us in such a octagon itialian espresso pot (on the stove)... just as he attemted to take it off the stove it exploded... aftermath: destroyed exhaust hood over the stove, slightly burned skin on the coworker and a nice "simon" contoured negative brown stain on the wall... THAT could have been worse if he had looked at the pot when
10:20 AM Loetmichel: it exploded...
10:20 AM gregcnc: what the
10:21 AM gregcnc: what kind of pot was this?
10:22 AM gregcnc: pressure relief failed?
10:25 AM Loetmichel: moka pot
10:25 AM Loetmichel: yes, seems so, the lower half of the pot has no longer a threaded section
11:01 AM fragalot: Hey
11:11 AM Loetmichel: After close inspection of the pot the thread dosent seem to be ripped off.. its more like worn down over the years and then simply slipped out of the thread in the top half, destroying what little of the thread was left in the base
11:57 AM rmu: steam is dangerous
11:58 AM fragalot: rmu: the game platform, or the superheated water,
12:01 PM rmu: the "kesselzerknall" thing, i.e. hot water
12:02 PM rmu: s/hot/gaseous (?)/
12:03 PM rmu: steam the game platform probably won't kill you, but a pressure cooker with failing pressure relief valve will
12:03 PM fragalot: iunno they're both pretty lethal
12:03 PM rmu: the mokka thing wasn't screwed properly
12:04 PM rmu: probably. if that makes sense
12:06 PM fragalot: miss0r: if you ever wonder what you could do with your landy. https://imgur.com/gallery/DSNnXBC
12:21 PM miss0r|office2: fragalot: That sould make me cry
12:49 PM skunkworks: falcon 9 - 3rd successful landing
12:54 PM fragalot: impressive. time to scrap it & start over
01:34 PM sensille: Loetmichel: installing the endstops... do they need pull-up/down, or do i connect them only to gnd? or vcc? i measure 4.5V on them, so i'd just switch them to gnd
01:55 PM Loetmichel: sensille:: they have internal pullup
01:56 PM Loetmichel: so just take the NC and C pin and its good
01:56 PM sensille: great
01:56 PM Loetmichel: so "normal closed"
01:56 PM sensille: yes
01:56 PM Loetmichel: that way you have notmal signals ("1" when pressed) AND wire break functionality
01:56 PM Loetmichel: normal
01:57 PM Loetmichel: and connect them to ground i forgot ;)
01:58 PM sensille: and shield to chassis (on the control box)
01:58 PM sensille: *enclosure
01:59 PM Loetmichel: indeed
02:02 PM sensille: is it reasonable to square the spindle pointing a dial indicator to the housing and run the spindle up and down?
02:03 PM fragalot: not sure if the housing of the spindle is representative, but it might get you close enough
02:04 PM fragalot: i'd say a better method is to make an indicator holder you can mount in the spindle & sweep the table
02:04 PM fragalot: and align the Z axis using a square on the bed, and the indicator mounted on the spindle mount or other part of the Z axis
02:05 PM Tom_L: Loetmichel, and that's why i don't drink espresso :D
02:06 PM Loetmichel: Tom_L: could have happend at any time. I think it was just SO worn down that the thread couldnt hold the pressure any more
02:06 PM Loetmichel: the remaining thread "shadow" looks like it "flowed" upwards
02:07 PM Loetmichel: before it launched the upper part of the moka pot into the exhaust hood
02:07 PM sensille: hm. how do spindle squareness and runout interact? i think i need to separate both
02:07 PM Loetmichel: they dont interact
02:07 PM fragalot: they don't
02:07 PM fragalot: well
02:07 PM fragalot: they shouldn't
02:08 PM Loetmichel: !squareness will give you ridges on faced off parts, runout will give you bigger diameter
02:08 PM Loetmichel: not square will also make drills oval in the direction that is out of square
02:09 PM Loetmichel: and tilt any walls that are in that direction
02:21 PM sensille: i lean interact in the setup where i mount the dial indicator on the spindle and check squareness to the table by rotating
02:22 PM Tom_L: sensille, there are 3 videos here on tramming (G0704 Tramming Part 1..3.mp4) if you want to watch them you might get something out of them: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/
02:22 PM sensille: Tom_L: thanks
02:22 PM Tom_L: i haven't looked at them in a long time so i forget how good they are
02:23 PM sensille: Loetmichel: i just found the pic from your wiring and am surprised that you also wired the spindle to the controller. totally forgot about that
02:24 PM fragalot: sensille: mounting the indicator holder in the spindle is the best method of checking how square the spindle is to the table
02:24 PM Loetmichel: sensille: hihi
02:24 PM fragalot: sensille: runout is not a factor there, even if your spindle is bent, it will always be bent the same amount in relation to the indicator
02:25 PM Tom_L: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtFTRyS__Yc
02:25 PM sensille: ah, yes, so it only changes the distance to the table, but not the relative distance while rotating
02:25 PM Tom_L: sensille, ^^
02:26 PM fragalot: sensille: Exactly. :-)
02:27 PM sensille: ok, so i wait for the test indicator and see how i can mount it
02:27 PM fragalot: yup
02:27 PM fragalot: either with a proper mount made for the task.. or just a bent rod if you can mount the indicator to it
02:27 PM fragalot: doesn't need to be anything fancy
02:28 PM sync: sensille: when you do the spindle test you only know that your spindle is purpendicular to the table
02:28 PM sensille: just rigid enough to give the same readout each round
02:28 PM Tom_L: just so it's rigid enough the indicator doesn't move around
02:29 PM fragalot: yes
02:30 PM sensille: Loetmichel: so with the wiring you can control spindle speed from linuxcnc?
02:30 PM Tom_L: sure can
02:30 PM Loetmichel: sensille: yes
02:30 PM Loetmichel: speed and on/off
02:31 PM sensille: nice
02:31 PM sensille: but why isn't that pre-wired?
02:31 PM Tom_L: and FWD & REV if you have that option
02:31 PM fragalot: even position/angle (if you have that option)
02:32 PM Loetmichel: Tom_L: never needed rev
02:32 PM Loetmichel: its a 24krpm 800W spindle... no chance to do threading with that anyways ;)
02:32 PM Loetmichel: s/threading/tapping
02:33 PM Loetmichel: sensille: because the sellers are cheap?
02:33 PM fragalot: sure there is... thread milling :D
02:33 PM sensille: no? i wanted to build a board with 500 tapped holes :(
02:34 PM sensille: but when the spindle tries to run slow it doesn't have any force whatsoever i guess
02:34 PM sensille: s/torce/torque
02:35 PM Tom_L: Loetmichel true
02:36 PM Tom_L: so get a thread mill instead of a tap
02:36 PM Loetmichel: i did and i have
02:36 PM Loetmichel: thread milling works fine
02:36 PM Tom_L: i was talking to sensille mostly
02:36 PM Loetmichel: but no chance to do rigid tapping with such a low torque spindle
02:36 PM Tom_L: i'm able to with the little spindle motor i've got
02:37 PM Loetmichel: i once made a tapping head for my early mill
02:37 PM sensille: too bad i just ordered from sorotec today
02:37 PM Loetmichel: old battery drill converted to a tap holder
02:37 PM Loetmichel: and then the play in the collet used for forward/reverse switching the drill motor
02:38 PM Loetmichel: so if you press the collet up it runs forward if you pull on it it runs backwards
02:38 PM Loetmichel: worked good if you didnt overdo it with Z feed
02:55 PM sensille: Loetmichel: btw, how do you know all that? i can find a manual for a E100 vfd, but not for our D100. also i haven't found a manual for the controller board, just some wiring diagrams
02:56 PM Loetmichel: sensille: i am an electronican by trade for about 30 years now, and dabble in building CNC routers for the last 15 to 20... you learn a thing or two... ;)
02:57 PM Loetmichel: i can read a PCB if its only 2 layer pretty much off the PCB itself
02:57 PM Loetmichel: no need to have a circuit diagram unless its VERY complicated
02:58 PM sensille: like sheet music :D
02:59 PM Loetmichel: something like that, yes
03:00 PM Loetmichel: didnt i link you the manual for the VFD?
03:00 PM sensille: also the control menus are a complete mystery to me, but maybe the e100-manual has some clues
03:00 PM Loetmichel: http://www.cyrom.org/palbum/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=17241
03:01 PM Loetmichel: that should cover the menues
03:01 PM Loetmichel: if yours has the same VFD as mine
03:01 PM sensille: oh, great :) mine is D100S1R58
03:02 PM sensille: the manual looks very similar to the E100 manual
03:03 PM Loetmichel: it is for the E100
03:03 PM Loetmichel: cant see if i have a D100 or E100 because its at the company
03:03 PM Loetmichel: but if i have a D100 the programming is the same as the E100
03:04 PM sensille: first difference: E100 goes up to 600Hz
03:04 PM Loetmichel: also the wiring of the front panel is the same
03:04 PM Loetmichel: so i probably have the D100 as well
03:04 PM Loetmichel: but the programming worked flawlessly
03:06 PM sensille: never thought a motor driver could be so complex
03:08 PM Loetmichel: hihi
03:08 PM Loetmichel: its only complex because it has to drive a ton of different motors
03:08 PM Loetmichel: so its very "variable"
03:08 PM Loetmichel: :-)
03:08 PM Loetmichel: (pun intended)
03:08 PM sensille: i just dial it to max and hit 'run'
03:11 PM jdh: I used the e100 manual for my d100. close enough
03:11 PM Loetmichel: jdh: thats what i said
03:12 PM jdh: somewhere, I typed up the config stuff.
03:18 PM sensille: do i need to reconfigure anything to pass the control to the X1/AIN1 terminals?
03:19 PM Loetmichel: honestly cant remember out of the top of my head
03:19 PM sensille: looks like the 'factory default' is already that
03:19 PM sensille: i'll find out
03:19 PM Loetmichel: you have at least to switch the rpm and on/off control from front panel to ain and X1
03:19 PM Loetmichel: but i cant remember if you have to config the Ain somewhere
03:19 PM Loetmichel: i think so though
03:23 PM sensille: i hope the other values are already good for the specific motor
03:34 PM gloops: i need that patch to show link spindle rpm to the ui
03:56 PM Deejay: gn8

10:26 PM Tom_L: how many decimal places do you typically use in a metric gcode file?
10:27 PM Tom_L: 3.4? 000.0000?
10:27 PM Tom_L: and angular format as well..
10:27 PM Tom_L: i'm using 3.4 for linear and 3.2 for angular in inch
10:28 PM Tom_L: but i wanted to make a metric post for my cam
10:28 PM weenerdog: fock decimal places. round up
10:28 PM Tom_L: to meters?
10:29 PM Tom_L: or Km?
10:29 PM weenerdog: whats the difference
10:29 PM Tom_L: alot
10:29 PM weenerdog: exactly
10:29 PM Tom_L: so back to my original question...
10:30 PM Tom_L: i would imagine in mm you would need more in front of the decimal
10:30 PM Tom_L: like 4.3 or maybe even 5.3
10:30 PM Tom_L: 0000.000
10:31 PM Tom_L: or 00000.000
10:34 PM Tom_L: and the smallest machine increment may be something like .001mm
