That is a line filter and i would leave it for sure.
Wiring everything mains powered through it is also a good idea, if the total current draw is under the rated 10A.

Gutting my machine questions

Category: Driver Boards

How’s it going, I had a couple quick questions was hoping someone could help understand?  So I just went ahead and halfway completely gutted the cabinet on my older Syil X4 machine because I’m jealous of everyone else having nicer machines than mine and wanted to perform a couple upgrades.  The goal is to replace the factory spindle drive and the main control board.  Anyways I came across a component that was connected to the power supply of old spindle drive and was wondering if its necessary to keep it installed or can I completely remove it?  What is this thing? 
 Also, I noticed there were two of these relays.  One turns on when I first flip the main power switch on the machine then the second one flips on once you boot the laptop or connect the parallel port cable with the laptop on.  Is it necessary to have two of these still or can I just run one only? 
 And a last question, is there a smaller transformer I can get to run all the axis drives?  This one seems kind of bulky and runs the 3 axis’s X,Y,and Z.  It has outputs for 40v(The drivers use) and 24V(The controller board uses).  Is there a smaller one I can get for it that’s compatible with 220v single phase? 
 And a picture of all the stuff I’ve pulled out so far for replacing. 
 Anyhow thanks

Here’s a link to an iso that needs testing that attempts to solve that issue
What did you change? Do you want to submit a pull request to: github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc-live-build ?

CPU Affinity and DKMS are two possible fixes. I describe them here:

Installing Probe Basic?

Category: Installing LinuxCNC

Hello Everyone, 
I have my 3 axis milling machine running on LinuxCNC but I would like to use Probe Basic. My question is can I put Probe Basic on my milling machine computer without screwing up what I have working now?
Thanks Mike

Time to work on stuff like this gets us all! I really like your foldaway keyboard hinges, and the whole project looks great. I have two machines to finish up, a big '90's Taiwanese bed mill that just needs the control panel built, and a lathe conversion that needs all of the control work done. I plan to use your hinge design, and the same keyboard, thanks!

If you are using linuxcnc 2.9, I'm not sure they will work.
In linuxcnc 2.10 (master version), they are included.

What version are you using?
