LinuxCNC + Orange Pi (allwincnc)

It's Armbian based feature. If you can get the VTK, you'll have a desirable interface. But performance of these boards is not a perfect point to run something heavy.

Hi There,

I try to install the project to my board, But seems like the github of this project is empty now.

Project feature is undefined. Armbian (uboot/linux) developers has cut (new security features) almost all the ways to play with SoC's memory. Now we can't freely play with RISC core.

Oh, I just sad to hear that, your project is quite suitable of my situation, since I don't have a computer can generating the pulse fast and stable, and also not easy to get the mesa card.

Back online. Main web page now contains a NEWS block. One of the latest news is about unbootable boards on latest Armbian images. At the moment use an older images if possible.

We need to wean this off of Armbian and use a stable distro. Same for u-boot. We should make a u-boot config for the various Allwinner boards that work well. I might have some time later this summer.

I has install the project to my board, but seems like I have some problem with the script of the install_cfg.sh.
The script want to set the config file into the root folder, and it fail.
I'm not runing the script in the root Account, I just use sudo insted.
I think it should be copy to my normal user Account.
But anyway, I got it setup.
Please see below:
--- Installing ARISC configs for the LinuxCNC

ln: failed to create symbolic link '/root/Desktop/configs': No such file or directory
ERROR: Can't create the /root/Desktop/configs link [./install_cfg.sh:125].
--- ARISC configs for the LinuxCNC successfully installed

./install.sh # right
sudo ./install.sh # wrong

I have a question with the config.hal file.
looks like the hal file already use the "setp" to set the pin value, so I don't need to use the "net" to setup the pin for pwm and dir.
Am I right?
But I also see there also using the net for setup the pin for enable funtion.

1. arisc.pwm.N.pwm-port / arisc.pwm.N.pwm-pin uses like input parameters.
2. arisc.gpio.XXX-out uses like output signals
