Some problems with probe basic lathe

Category: QtPyVCP

going forward you would need to use the usertabs for that. i am releasing a conversational plugin that will utilize that conversational tab so it is now no longer populating with the old bad conversational unfinished screens and macros.

Seems to be getting worse...

Sounds like some hardware is failing,

Does dmesg show any hardware faults (disk errors etc?)

Looks like the servo drive is a Copley 800-468, and older 3 Axis drive.
I suspect it's an analog velocity mode drive but its old enough that is
hard to find data on the drive. Was any documentation included with the machine?

If servo period is changed the coresponding P values for PID do not change

Thank you Aciera, i do not use wizards as i am used to manually editing everything, but been forcing myself to use them lately.

These are some of the photos I have so far. Working through getting the PC portion out of it, as I have a spare, more modern PC I want to use in it.

Livestream Discussing LinuxCNC and MTConnect 27 July 2026 11:00am GMT+10

Category: Off Topic and Test Posts

At the risk of dating myself, MTConnect reminds me of an old project (ganglia) which was originally used in academic high-performance computing environments to monitor distributed compute nodes. These ideas led to the modern data-center and eventually bormon/prometheus for large-scale infrastructure monitoring. It's a similar problem. Lots of vendors with proprietary hardware all reporting data. Aggregating it is a PIA.

Definitely works when creating a new config (tested on 2.9.10 and master) .

[edit]
It does not work when editing an existing config.

I've never been keen on AMD.

WTH man?
Oh yeah, you like to be lied to that you have 20 cores....

That is really disappointing Rod.

The 'pncconf' configuration tool does this automatically.

Nope, it does not when editing an existing config for sure, did not check when creating a new one.
This was on 2.10 or master.

Gantry oxyfuel / plasma type machine from scratch

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Many thanks Tommylight, seems all clear to me about the mesa boards and encoders.
I will take a look on the mesa website to see how i get all this different boards connected. So, if I got it correctly I need 2 mesa boards the 7i96S and the 7i85S which get connected together. That should work for me.

I will try to take a look on that DMM delay you are talking to. Also because I want to make this machine to work in our shop and I do not care if there is a slight new cost to add to make it go well and precise. I was even thinking of buying the DYN5 servo drives to have EtherCAT if needed. Altogh I prefer to use what I already have, the DYN4, but if needed I can also buy other servos and drives. Then I can always use these DMM ones for something else.

As for the virtual machine, its just more practical to me to make tests and get used to linuxcnc during my work time with my laptop. Later I will set up an dedicated computer. The idea is to buy a new industrial PC for use with the machine.

Immerhin bekommst du eine Verbindung hin.
Ich hab's irgendwann aufgegeben und das Tuning Manuel durchgeführt.
Übrigens, Stepperonline hatte sich hier gemeldet und eine weiterführende Tuning Anleitung eingestellt.

using linuxcnc on a raspberry pi to control a boxford 250pc lathe

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

In my opinion, some model RPIs (4 or 5) are capable enough to make a control using Linuxcnc, but a PC will generally make a more robust and reliable system, and probably not cost significantly more.
