burning iso to USB drive

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Use win32diskimager.org/ to write the ISO to the USB drive. It's dumb in the way it will just write byte by byte and not try to do anything fancy.

Proposal RPi Linuxcnc Image Based on Raspi OS All welcome/encoraged to comment

Category: Installing LinuxCNC

Despite my misgivings and boneheadedness I shall experiment with your suggestion.
If anything goes wrong I shall visit the local coven and take appropriate action. ;)

My work experience has been a little different, many years labouring and doing install and repairs to play equipment, road work and traffic control. What this has taught me is that people aren't that a fair percentage of people are lucky to breathe and walk at the same time. So I try to accommodate for the lowest common denominator.
Take for instance when I used to work on the railways during a weekend shutdown. Signs every informing passengers the train service has been replaced by a bus service. Panels of track that have been pulled up, and people sitting on the platform asking when the nest train is due.
So yeah no actual experience in the computer field as a professional, but way too much dealings with The General Public hahaha.

Tho there were times as a Traffic Controller when the temps were in the high 40c that some residents would offer cold drinks. Or night shift in the middle of winter when someone would bring out a hot chocolate.

linuxcnc.command().mdi() vs .program_open()

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Can anyone tell me the difference(s) between calling an ngc routine with .mdi("o<myfunction> call") and .program_open("myfunction.ngc")?

Feed per rev G95 way too fast

Category: Basic Configuration

Hi, Sorry, please bear with me, I'm new here and relatively new to LinuxCNC.I've been converting an old Boxford 240 TCL to LinuxCNC running on a Pi5. 

Everything is running fine(ish) there are still some glitches and errors that crop up and the odd latency warning too (stepping is done on an EC300 running remora so I'm not so worried about the latency warning).

However... i've gotten to the point of testing, and for some reason in G95 and feeding at 0.1mm/rev the axis runs at way faster rate, 10x maybe more.Anyone have any idea what is going on?  The only other thing to note is that I am having issues with LinuxCNC seeing my index pulse, but it is seeing the count from the single encoder (100 slot disk with a second slotted opto switch for index so not quadrature). 
I'm assuming that its possible the feed issue could be linked to that.

The other issue I am having is when i run a program, it won't run through automatically.  The only way it will run is by me hitting the single step through button.  I'm wondering if that is linked to the encoder also as perhaps LinuxCNC isn't seeing "at speed" so isn't letting the program run?

hal and ini attached.  Please forgive the messy files, once they are running right I'm planning on cleaning them up.
