08:37 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> nice
08:38 PM XXCoder: yeah funny
09:17 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Jt shop thanks for patching mesact... turned out what I thought was a config issue was actually wiring issues.
09:22 PM XXCoder: so its working well now?
09:25 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> I mean my mill is:P I just got the notification from github the issue was closed
09:26 PM XXCoder: cool :)
09:28 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Vfd has optocoupler input for forward. Using the opto on the 7i76s was backwards from the vfd
10:00 PM Tom_L: satiowadachc, it was looking for mesaflash but it wasn't installed so it error'd. he did fix that
10:01 PM Tom_L: we both try hard to break it but invaribly miss things along the way
10:22 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Eh. I get it. My day job is software development. Generally a good chance to add another CI test
10:23 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> I appreciate the fix regardless
10:25 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Fwiw it also didn't detect lcnc? I compiled from source, can get the configure command on Monday
10:26 PM Tom_L: did the older version?
10:27 PM Tom_L: i'm not sure how he searches for that but it may need to be in the /bin directory to be detected. i'm not sure
10:28 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Yep. Running 2.9
10:28 PM Tom_L: i meant the older version of mesact
10:28 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Yeah 2.0.8
10:29 PM Tom_L: i think you said you tried 2.0.8
10:29 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Sounds right. Just went backwards through releases until one worked
10:29 PM Tom_L: but did it detect lcnc?
10:30 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Nope
10:30 PM Tom_L: ok
10:31 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Pretty sure linuxcnc.sh is in /bin
10:33 PM Tom_L: mine is
10:35 PM Tom_L: it's good to have the latest mesaflash installed anyway
