Great work JT. Looks ace. I can't see myself going over to Flex GUI - my 2.8.4 install is super stable and I'm one of those 'if it ain't broke...' guys (my mini mill runs an ancient version of LinuxCNC and has been for the last 11 years or so...) I'm about to install 2.9.2 on a spare stand alone PC to have a play with GladeVCP, so may try out Flex GUI on that machine once I've figured out I can't get anything to work in Glade...  

Hey, if you need an image file that integrates better into your tab I'm attaching one here (says POINT 1 instead of POS A etc. is 1:1 ratio and the background colour should match your tab's bg colour).

 

When i attempt use the set the tool touch off position button, the X Y and Z remains greyed out and does not change values.  Seems like I'm missing something to make those 3 values become active.

Thanks for any input.

Does Remora DMA code exist in other builds other than EC500 specific version OS5/OS6 ?

If not what are your thoughts on what would need to be done for porting the EC500 code to an F4 series target?

Thanks

What about a 7I97T +7I73?
 

Yes, but looking at those always there's something that's not available.
Since I'm out of the United States, I wanna buy all from the same provider.

I'm thinking if it's a good idea to use the next configuration:
1x 6i24-16
2x 7i36
1x 7i44
1x 7i73

One of the 7i36s is if I want to install a fourth axis, but I'm using all the connections on the 6i24.

The next configuration I'm looking at is:
1x 6i24-16
1x 7i48
1x 7i44
1x 7i73

In this one, connectors are unused, and I can control 4 axes, a spindle, and the rest of the machine in both configurations.

Can someone explain to me if one is better than the other (don't taking into account that one has one more connector available)?

I haven't found anyone that used the 6i24 with the 7i48. The 2x7i65 is in the manual of the 6i24. It shows as a supplied configuration.

There is some limitation in the ports or the cards that i can use?
cause looking at it do not say anything like that.
And what are the chance that the second option (7i48) came available soon in mesanet

Thank you so much guys again.
You are helping me a lot.
Cheers
