[00:13:06] <andypugh> PFM?
[00:13:16] <andypugh> It can do PWM or PDM.
[00:13:32] <Gast324> both?
[00:13:46] <andypugh> (PDM is probably a better idea than PWM from the parallel port, actually)
[00:14:10] <Gast324> ok.
[00:14:30] <Gast324> i see one thing about 7i77
[00:14:46] <andypugh> http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/pwmgen.9.html
[00:15:03] <Gast324> there are six encoder inputs
[00:15:44] <andypugh> Yes?
[00:15:54] <Gast324> but finaly it goes to paralel port
[00:16:14] <Gast324> an we have the same problem
[00:16:29] <Gast324> the low speed
[00:16:48] <Gast324> low speed paralel port
[00:16:50] <andypugh> No. The 7i77 connects to a 5i25 or 6i25. They have a 25-pin D-sub connector, but are not a parallel port.
[00:17:37] <andypugh> The 5i25 plugs into a PCI slot, and the 6i25 into a PCI-e slot.
[00:17:38] <Gast324> ok. sorry
[00:18:35] <Gast324> other thing
[00:18:38] <andypugh> The 7i43 _does_ connect to a parallel port, but like the 5i25 it does all the pulse generation and counting on the card, and simply reports back numbers on the parallel port, not pulses.
[00:19:53] <andypugh> Ok, on with the other thing, I need to sleep at some point :-)

[00:37:19] <Gast324> Where? you want to say how?
[00:37:36] <andypugh> No matter. Just curious.
[00:38:50] <Gast324> have a great time
[00:38:52] <PCW> If you want PWM out a 5I25/7I85S combination will also do (and you get buffered differential 5V PWM out and 4 encoders in TTL or differential)
[00:39:57] <Gast324> I'm in the valence. near the sea. Always Here for a good time
[00:40:05] <andypugh> Ah! PCW has arrived. I can pass the Mesa info baton on to him :-)
[00:40:27] <Gast324> But as you know. not so good time to work.
[00:41:18] <Gast324> ok
[00:41:42] <r00t4rd3d> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfOyE5b2jh4
[00:42:20] <PCW> you can use the 5I25 by itself for PWM out/encoder in but its like a bare parallel port card 3.3V signal levels and minimal protection
[00:42:22] <PCW> the 7I85s is basically a breakout board (you can use standard parallel port breakouts as well)
[00:43:56] <andypugh> PCW: (I suspect that phrases like "breakout" may be lost in translation from english to spanish and geek to newbie)
[00:43:58] -!- factor [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:44:23] <PCW> Yeah
[00:46:39] <andypugh> I think I see the difference between my RevB and RevD 8i20s. The RevD starts reliably every time, but has a bus undervolt problem. Looks like the RevB needs firmware.
[00:48:09] <andypugh> I am not sure what the default setting is for undervolt, my test config only manages 58.24V
[00:49:02] <PCW> Yes the latest firmware changed undervolt from a fault to a status so SSLBP will always start
[00:50:25] <andypugh> Right, so I guess I need to test on my 300V supply, then start on the firmware updater/nvsetter
[00:50:37] <PCW> That should be OK I think its nominally 45V but with hysteresis so 58V might be marginal
[00:51:02] <andypugh> (but first I need to read out the params without crashing, but that's for tomorrow)

[13:18:28] <Loetmichel> hmm, question to the ones with knowledge: 2,5mm drill HSS in PMMA... 25mm depth. How much rpm, how much F, how often pullout for swarf clean?
[13:22:06] <MattyMatt> all I know is, use flood coolant if you can
[13:25:11] <MattyMatt> PMMA is like delrin I think. fast feedrates so you don't linger long enough to melt
[13:27:32] <MattyMatt> I drill 2.5mm in delrin all the time, and I just go straight through 5mm with a fast dremel with no issues
[13:28:39] <MattyMatt> I'd clear swarf after 10mm I think
[13:29:41] <MattyMatt> got any spare to practice on?
[13:31:43] <MattyMatt> the only PMMA I've milled was 1mm thick, and that was pretty awful

[16:45:26] <IchGuckLive> Hi
[16:45:45] <IchGuckLive> is there a best parameter side for cobinations
[16:46:18] <IchGuckLive> im looking for 5i25+7i76+leadshine at 100steps per unit
[16:46:32] <IchGuckLive> 48V Driver
[16:47:08] <IchGuckLive> Timing max Acelleration max speed
[16:47:24] <IchGuckLive> maybe some users got feedback to you
[16:48:11] <IchGuckLive> Today the money of the 4new sets came back from Austria Bank failue

[16:51:36] <pcw_home> Well acceleration and speed depend on machine and drives and motors
[16:51:38] <pcw_home> one thin to make sure is that the stepgen maxaccel parameter is about 20% more
[16:51:40] <pcw_home> than the machinces max acceleration
[16:51:42] -!- amaldo [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:52:12] <pcw_home> thing machines
[16:52:57] <IchGuckLive> ok i will check at 8hr milling if i can get some good parameters back to you
[16:54:19] -!- morfic- has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
[16:54:29] <pcw_home> theres really no practical hardware limit on step rate so any uStep ratio is OK
[16:55:11] <IchGuckLive> in the example file there are some calculations
[16:56:00] <IchGuckLive> i will also pull the new git for the new PC setup so maxbe criss has made pncconf working to the 5i25+7i76 boards
[16:56:30] <pcw_home> Yes he's been adding stuff all along
[16:57:17] <pcw_home> you may have to get the 7I76x2 XML files
[16:57:34] <IchGuckLive> got it
[16:58:15] <IchGuckLive> but where to put this files the example is not clear on this
[16:58:40] <pcw_home> 7I76 can generate up to ~8 MHz step rates, this is ~10K RPM with a 256 uStep ratio
[16:59:20] <IchGuckLive> i dont think that leadshine met this steprate
[16:59:46] <pcw_home> the XML files go in the firmware directory (/lib/firmware/hm2/5i25)
[17:01:37] <pcw_home> (which needs to be created as root)
[17:02:22] <IchGuckLive> B)
[17:02:24] <pcw_home> since the distribution does not include 5i25 firmware yet
[17:02:58] <IchGuckLive> i think the new git got it
[17:03:21] <pcw_home> Ahh that would be nice
[17:03:36] <IchGuckLive> criss is working hard on this
[17:04:00] <IchGuckLive> the dot pin file goes also to this path i think
[17:05:31] <pcw_home> Yes, you can even put the bitfiles/pinfiles from 5i25.zip in there as well should you want to change/update the 5I25 firmware (via the mesaflash utility)

[17:10:19] <pcw_home> There are bug fixes occasionally
[17:10:33] <IchGuckLive> i think i got this year not a strait part to mill
[17:11:13] <pcw_home> all 3d artsy stuff?
[17:11:25] <IchGuckLive> yes
[17:12:09] <pcw_home> Are you the one that does the big foam stuff?
[17:12:37] <IchGuckLive> pcw_home: can i see the onboard version somewhere as i plug the 5i26
[17:12:42] <IchGuckLive> 5i25
[17:12:59] <IchGuckLive> pcw_home: yes i am
[17:15:40] <pcw_home> There is a separate version for each module
[17:15:41] <pcw_home> (encoder/stepgen/watchdog etc)
[17:15:43] <pcw_home> the most dynamic and buggy ATM is SSLBP/SSerial
[17:15:44] <pcw_home> (you probably have V33 current is V35 )
[17:16:07] <IchGuckLive> ok
[17:17:10] <pcw_home> there are no LinuxCNC issues with V33 but it will not allow
[17:17:12] <pcw_home> daughtercard firmware updates. V35 does
[17:18:15] <IchGuckLive> so the 7i76 is also updatable
[17:18:25] <pcw_home> Yes
[17:19:42] <IchGuckLive> i woudt wish to live in the USA there is a mutch grater Market for this Foam sculptures
[17:20:15] <IchGuckLive> amald here is doing the stuff for the brazilian carneval
[17:20:39] <IchGuckLive> look here what they do in the USA
http://moonscapes3d.com/projects/
[17:20:51] <pcw_home> lots of concrete over foam architectural work here
[17:21:16] <IchGuckLive> also the big mashines are provided
http://3dcutting.com/
[17:21:54] <IchGuckLive> yes thats the newest i got today a order for a 6-9meeter part
[17:22:33] <pcw_home> Wow, how big a router do you have?
[17:22:50] <IchGuckLive> 240" X 400" Y and 40" Z
[17:23:10] <IchGuckLive> i can go 360" in one dir
[17:23:29] <IchGuckLive> at 1mm acuracy
[17:23:58] <pcw_home> Thats pretty neat!
[17:24:08] <IchGuckLive> Hotwire
[17:24:20] <IchGuckLive> all depends on wire strangth
[17:25:52] <pcw_home> Didn't know you could get that kid of accuracy with that long a hot wire
[17:25:54] <pcw_home> (it must wander somewhat)
[17:26:49] <IchGuckLive> you can go only 2" per minute at that length
[17:27:02] <IchGuckLive> with no los
[17:27:48] <pcw_home> I guess its a lot faster for roughing out shapes than a router
[17:28:15] <IchGuckLive> it is a good money maker
[17:28:25] <IchGuckLive> foam for concreet
[17:28:40] <pcw_home> do you need fume extraction?

[17:42:51] <IchGuckLive> it is 1/3 the price of the macrolon also
[17:43:07] <IchGuckLive> so if you are good with it go for it
[17:43:26] <Loetmichel> i doubt it: thios PMMA plates were laminated from 20mm clear pmma and 5mm blue PMMA
[17:43:42] <Loetmichel> they were about 150 eur each as front doors

[18:38:11] <Connor> Okay, I want to make a manifold for my coolant stuff.. What is the proper tap for the 1/4NPT ?
[18:38:52] <cradek> 1/4NPT is the tap
[18:39:07] <cradek> it's a bitch of a thread to hand tap
[18:39:21] <Connor> because of the taper ?
[18:39:23] <Tom_itx> 7/16"
[18:39:24] <cradek> yeah
[18:39:28] -!- LeelooMinai [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[18:39:36] <cradek> make the hole oversize
[18:39:46] <andypugh> Use a tapered drill?
[18:40:08] <Tom_itx> the chart shows a 7/16" drill for a 1/4" NPT tap
[18:40:10] <Connor> Most of the stuff I've seen aren't tapered
[18:40:21] <cradek> NPT is most definitely tapered
[18:40:37] <andypugh> NP might not be :-)
[18:40:44] <Connor> I know. But, I swear the solenoid valve I got wasn't.
[18:41:09] <andypugh> NPP?
[18:41:18] <Tom_itx> so use flared fittings if you're worried about it
[18:41:33] <andypugh> Might even be BSPP which is the metric standard. (along with BSPT)
[18:42:45] <jdh> buy a cheap manifold? Use a npt cross?
[18:43:50] <Connor> Not worried about it with the air valve.. I got that sorted out with white tape. :) I was just trying to figure out how to make one for my coolant.. I want to mount the nozzle to the head..
[18:45:08] <jdh> get a cheap brass body needle valve for the mount?
