awesome

sorry i didn't check the notify me box so only just stumbled across this.

just getting a bit stuck working out how to download it and install.

ideally a guide would be great. or something. I can go back through the thread and try to see what i missed but any up to date info would be great

i always seem to get caught out in the little details. like i have the wrong repo or just missing a command

but i have done many retrofits so not completely useless:)

but i think i might need a tiny bit of hand holding on this one.

cheers

This is a post that clarified a lot of stuff about this topic

BTW I had success sending a tool number on the main window of PB, it runs the subroutine m6_tool_call_main_panel.ngc that you should edit whith your atc position.
Don't know if this is the way to do it, something tells me it's not

Now, I am planning a CNC welding setup.

In my application, touch sensing with Mig-wire is a must. Now, I tested the continuity between torch tip and earth clamp, it is already a closed circuit inside the welding machine. Then how do touch sensing work? 

Looking for help/ideas.

Anyone already using such setup??

11 hours you've done well!....

What is the actual command are you using for ping

Mmm, pizza fixes everything.

For the curious who might want to use lenovo tiny pcs:
- The pc needed a bios update to disable CSM mode. (legacy compatibility) and turn secure boot off.
- The bios needed to go on a bootable DOS stick, which was not super clear in the instructions and its been AGES since that was a thing haha so I just forgot.
- Once I got the bios on I still needed to reinstall linuxcnc cause I guess the boot record was still messed up.

After all that, its fine. Now to do the work I intended to do like 11 hours ago!

I need a nap.

@hellvetica Looks like I have same or very similar issue. What exactly was wrong with wiring in your case?

So with the official image if I install Network Manager then it fails at between 50k and 70k pings... However if I leave the network bone stock like the image (so using commandline and config files to manage) then 100000 pings at 1ms/ping and a response time of 0.105ms so yah... I think it was Network Manager that was the problem.

Thanks again! Now I can start LinuxCNC and motor start to make sound on start. Also Encoder shows position in DRO tab. Looks like I have communication with the servo motor now. When I trying to Jog or turn motor shaft I got Error: joint 0 following error. Same thing as  bananun described at the end of page one of this thread but his solution doesn't work for me. Now I'm not sure is this is Servo related error or I still need to do tweaking LinuxCNC settings. I seriously underestimate complexity of this project
