[00:05:57] <GammaX-Shop|2> andypugh: that worked
[00:06:22] <GammaX-Shop|2> with the --install option
[00:06:50] <andypugh> So, I wonder what is wrong with the modbus version?

[00:07:13] <andypugh> There were a couple of updates to comp for userspace components today.
[00:07:20] <GammaX-Shop|2> me 2
[00:07:23] <GammaX-Shop|2> you got it to compile?
[00:07:42] <andypugh> Yes. But I am running the latest pull of master.
[00:09:16] <GammaX-Shop|2> idk what that means
[00:09:55] <andypugh> I am running the very latest development version.
[00:10:07] <GammaX-Shop|2> ahhh
[00:10:14] <GammaX-Shop|2> i think im on most recent stable
[00:10:30] <andypugh> Give me a minute, I can switch back
[00:10:37] <GammaX-Shop|2> this code isnt new though...
[00:12:30] <GammaX-Shop|2> roger that
[00:12:55] <andypugh> Compiles and runs fine in v2.5 too

[00:16:56] <GammaX-Shop|2> I think I know what was wrong....
[00:17:16] <GammaX-Shop|2> how do I know if the file was installed correctly?
[00:18:03] <GammaX-Shop|2> I saved the file on a windows pc and then brought it into linux. I opened it with gedit, saved as unix type.
[00:18:23] <andypugh> With a realtime component you see a "cp file-to-new-location" at the end of the output. But not with a userspace compoent, it seems.
[00:18:38] <andypugh> But, to test
[00:18:40] <andypugh> halrun
[00:18:52] <andypugh> loadusr sj200mbbasic

[00:26:02] <GammaX-Shop|2> yahtzee!
[00:26:52] <GammaX-Shop|2> yeah only thing I had to do was change the "line ending" to unix/linux type in gedit.
[00:26:56] <GammaX-Shop|2> and it compiled and installed.

[01:02:00] <Aero-Tec> also, what do you do to test that phase A is being used by EMC?
[01:02:15] -!- gommo has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[01:02:17] <Aero-Tec> I know the scope can be used to make sure EMC sees it
[01:02:42] <Aero-Tec> but how do you test that every thing is set up 100% right?
[01:03:41] <PetefromTn> you can read it in Hal without power on most likely...
[01:03:47] <PetefromTn> motor power that is..
[01:04:42] <Aero-Tec> not following
[01:04:49] <GammaX-Shop|2> anyone know if theres a page that includes all the changed over directory changes from emc2 to linuxcnc?
[01:04:57] <Aero-Tec> you talking about using the meter?
[01:05:15] <PetefromTn> If you have the encoder hooked up correctly you should be able to turn the axis by hand and watch the numbers change in Hal.
[01:05:17] -!- gene_hacker [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[01:05:29] <PetefromTn> Hal meter I think it is...
[01:05:34] <Aero-Tec> cool
[01:05:47] <PetefromTn> Yeah it is cool... What motor is it going on?
[01:05:57] <Aero-Tec> any idea what part or thing to look at
[01:06:10] <Aero-Tec> lathe spindle
[01:06:12] <PetefromTn> Like I said what motor is it going on?
[01:06:40] <Aero-Tec> the meter has so many thing it see look at. not sure what one to look at with the meter
[01:06:56] <PetefromTn> Okay then it should be on your lathe spindle encoder input in hal. Dunno what the actual name is tho have to peck around..
[01:07:12] <Sharpen047> skunkworks: thanks for the link
[01:07:20] <Aero-Tec> ok
[01:07:21] <Aero-Tec> cool
[01:07:23] <Aero-Tec> thanks
[01:07:25] <PetefromTn> Only one will change state when you turn the spindle by hand LOL...
[01:07:49] <Aero-Tec> it would be a counter I would be looking for
[01:08:02] <PetefromTn> Just make sure you have it wired up right first before you go looking for something that is not there due to an improper hookup LOL
[01:08:13] <PetefromTn> Enc input.
[01:08:22] <PetefromTn> What hardware are you using mesa?

[01:08:50] <Aero-Tec> mesa is next on the upgrade list
[01:09:01] <Aero-Tec> will close to next
[01:09:03] <PetefromTn> Oh okay Dunno where to look then but it should be in there if you have it hooked up right.
[01:09:05] <Aero-Tec> well
[01:09:25] <PetefromTn> I bought the Mesa 5I25/7I77 combo and thus far it has been kick ass...
[01:09:59] <PetefromTn> tons of I/O and analog servos with feedback closed loop. Whats not to like LOL
[01:10:10] <Aero-Tec> I have a mill and a lathe to upgrade to mesa
[01:10:22] <Aero-Tec> lol
[01:10:25] <GammaX-Shop|2> i got one lathe to convert... once it dies

[01:11:20] <Tom_itx> so git busy
[01:11:32] <PetefromTn> Yes what he said...
[01:11:43] <Aero-Tec> lol
[01:11:53] <PetefromTn> Tom_itx Hey man I received my new Shars CNC vise today...
[01:12:06] <Tom_itx> so get to work
[01:12:13] <Tom_itx> no excuses now
[01:12:30] <PetefromTn> had to install new brakes on the wife's Isuzu Trooper limited so I did not get to do much other than wipe off the grease...
[01:12:38] <PetefromTn> Nope no excuses...
[01:12:59] <Aero-Tec> I am busy, doing this upgrade and them some production runs, then hope to get $$ so I can do upgrades, them more production and more $$ and them do the conversions
[01:13:28] <PetefromTn> Honestly the only thing that I have found I did not like about it was the tension collar seems to be a tad out of round but it works and I may just machine another one..

[01:15:15] <Aero-Tec> would have to look

[01:16:04] <PetefromTn> I used to have an RF45 mill from Lathemaster and when I tore it apart to do the CNC retrofit it was mine for over a decade at that point...
[01:16:20] <GammaX-Shop|2> damn!
[01:16:25] <GammaX-Shop|2> thank god I bought a cnc ready pm45!
[01:16:26] <PetefromTn> Even tho the Cinci is considerably nicer I kinda miss having the RF45..
[01:16:48] <PetefromTn> Did not know there was such an animal...
[01:19:56] <Aero-Tec> the lathe is a DF-1237G
[01:20:19] <Aero-Tec> the mill modle just says ASIA
[01:20:21] <Aero-Tec> lol
[01:20:26] <GammaX-Shop|2> lol!
[01:20:30] <Aero-Tec> knee mill
[01:21:00] <PetefromTn> Is the lathe belt driven?
[01:21:06] <Aero-Tec> the new mill is very much like the RF45
[01:21:10] <Aero-Tec> yes
[01:21:27] <Aero-Tec> the new lathe is smaller
[01:21:34] <PetefromTn> I have a 12x36 asian lathe and it has been wonderful for almost 20 years of hard use no.
[01:21:52] <PetefromTn> now.

[12:50:05] <jdh> CD? you had a CD install?
[12:50:26] <cradek> yes yggdrasil LGX came on a cd
[12:50:57] <jdh> I downloaded 20-30 SLS floppies on a modem
[12:51:16] <jdh> still have a set somewhere
[12:51:20] <cradek> it contained all the sources and wasn't even full
[12:52:06] <cradek> I later used floppies too, but that cd was my first linux
[12:52:46] <jdh> I don't think there were cd drives when I got mine. 93ish? I didn't have one

[14:51:09] <jdh> I tried to cut my wrench last night. My backing plate was small and in my vise so the stock ended up being outside my envelope
[14:51:24] <PetefromTn> Was looking forward to being able to touch off accurately with it.
[14:51:43] <PetefromTn> jdh What machine again?
[14:51:57] <jdh> g0704
[14:52:12] <PetefromTn> aah.. well can you make a table mounted fixture plate?
[14:52:33] <jdh> vise is mounted so the top/back/wtf of the vise is almost the edge of travel. I forgot that when I mounted it.
[14:52:52] <jdh> yeah, or just use a bigger fixture plate
[14:52:58] <PetefromTn> This CNC vise I bought looks halfway decent but it did not come with any hold down clamps.
[14:53:08] <PetefromTn> Oh okay well can ya move it inboard?
[14:53:26] <jdh> no, it would hit the column
[14:54:32] <PetefromTn> Ya know I had similar problems on the RF45 with the vise I bought. It has a large bit of flashing cast iron on the back of the vise near the column and it forces me to move the vise to the front of the table tee slots so it would clear. That made getting to the back of the vise diffcult at times.
[14:54:59] <jdh> same with this one. I was thinking of cutting it off
[14:55:00] <PetefromTn> The Cincinatti here has 20" of Y travel which I think I am gonna really enjoy LOL.. my RF45 had just under ten....

[14:55:36] <PetefromTn> I ALMOST cut mine off too LOL... I cannot see how it would hurt too bad as long as you did not get it too hot and did not remove anything really structural.
[14:57:02] <PetefromTn> That is one of the nice things about these CNC vises they do not have that surround but you gotta buy or make clamps to hold them down with. You can also clamp them anywhere you can reach them with the tee slots instead of the two bolt holes in the typical vises. Also if you use the flashing to clamp to on them you usually screw up the paint a good bit too. The CNC vises don't seem to have
[14:57:02] <PetefromTn> that problem.
[14:57:23] <PetefromTn> I also like that I can tilt this thing on its side to hold things longer vertically if I want to.
[14:57:34] <PetefromTn> Should have bought one of these first LOL..

[15:16:26] <JT-Shop> DX-32 control
[15:16:49] <JT-Shop> damn drives don't like running on a phase converter :(
[15:16:55] <PetefromTn> NICE... Damn I need to find some work like that for my machine...
[15:17:28] <PetefromTn> I hear ya.. Honestly I think that was what the problem with my machine was most likely. The voltages are just not right sometimes I guess.
[15:17:42] <PetefromTn> I bought a GOOD QUALITY one too.. not some chinese POS.
[15:18:07] <PetefromTn> ya making a living with that thing?
[15:18:11] <JT-Shop> I made a high quality RPC from scratch with balanced legs
[15:18:23] <JT-Shop> that and all the rest of my equipment
[15:18:37] <JT-Shop> I design and build automation equipment
[15:18:44] <PetefromTn> you made all the rest of your equipment?
[15:18:50] -!- krusty_ar has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[15:18:59] <JT-Shop> just my plasma cutter
[15:19:32] <JT-Shop> I have a Hardinge CHNC lathe and a BP knee mill with an Anilam 3 axis conversion kit on it
[15:19:57] <PetefromTn> I need to find some work somehow for the machine now that it is working, been trying to get some RFQ work but nothing too good yet.
[15:20:14] <JT-Shop> I make stuff like this usually
http://imagebin.org/257840
[15:20:49] <PetefromTn> is that some kinda press workstation?
[15:21:17] <JT-Shop> no, it installs the brake assembly on the motor with two bolts
[15:21:31] <PetefromTn> oh okay...
[15:21:40] <JT-Shop> it is on a convayer line with <5 second cycle time
[15:21:43] <PetefromTn> looks like interesting work anyway...
[15:21:50] <JT-Shop> yep
[15:21:50] <PetefromTn> PLC?
[15:21:58] <JT-Shop> yes
[15:22:08] <PetefromTn> cool..
[15:22:25] <PetefromTn> Where ya at? to dangle the participle...
[15:22:55] <JT-Shop> swamp east Missouri
[15:23:13] <PetefromTn> LOL
[15:23:25] <PetefromTn> near St. Louie?
[15:23:49] <JT-Shop> I'm not near any big cities... YEA!
[15:24:24] <Tom_itx> JT-Shop, fancy material stop
[15:24:24] <JT-Shop> I'm 2 weeks from anywhere...
[15:24:26] <PetefromTn> I'm about 20 from KnoxVegas...
[15:24:35] <Tom_itx> we clamped ours to the table usually
[15:24:35] <PetefromTn> You're also in dreamland..
[15:24:50] <Tom_itx> or used a dowel pin in a tool holder alot
[15:25:03] <Tom_itx> saves time
[15:25:17] <Tom_itx> we just kept a tool position free for it
[15:25:19] <JT-Shop> I use the dowel pin to set the first part then move the stop to the part and it saves even more time
[15:25:19] <PetefromTn> actually those vise mounted stops are quite handy...
[15:25:43] <JT-Shop> I also use the stop that fits in the slot of the rear jaw
[15:26:05] <JT-Shop> yikes I need to get some work done
[15:26:11] <Tom_itx> no fancy anodizing on ours though
[15:26:16] <PetefromTn> lucky guy...
[15:26:19] <Tom_itx> we just made em
[15:26:31] <Tom_itx> and MANY pairs of soft jaws
[15:26:45] <PetefromTn> I love soft jaws..
[15:28:24] <Tom_itx> JT-Shop, those must be 4" vises
[15:29:14] <Tom_itx> hard to tell really
[15:33:04] <PetefromTn> Jeez man doen't the CNCzone forum EVER work right?
[15:33:28] <Tom_itx> don't go there often enough to tell you
[15:34:12] <PetefromTn> I have been trying to update my damn build thread there for a couple days now and it never works.... Someone left me a post there today and I can't even respond to the damn thing.

[16:28:21] <frallzor> it sucks
[16:28:26] <PetefromTn> Well I tried to pick up the vise corner with a solid tool and some paper.
[16:28:58] <PetefromTn> I used my nice 45 degree champfer mill because it does not have any protruding teeth on the OD of the tool shank so I figured it was safe.
[16:29:07] -!- zzolo has quit [Quit: zzolo]
[16:29:22] <PetefromTn> I measured the runout and then using the MPG moved it over to set the Y coord.
[16:29:46] <PetefromTn> I had Connor setup my MPG with custom buttons so I can just select X Y Z etc..
[16:30:07] <Connor> PetefromTn: How did you break your tool?
[16:30:16] <PetefromTn> Well I jogged the head down between the vise jaws and then selected the Y axis MPG.
[16:30:40] <PetefromTn> I carefully jogged it to the fixed jaw and put the paper in there and set .0001 increments
[16:31:07] <PetefromTn> Once I got it tight there I hit touch off and using my calculator figured the diameter by half plus the paper.
[16:31:14] <PetefromTn> Everything was going quite nicely
[16:31:39] <PetefromTn> Then Iooked up at the screen and using the mouse clicked in the manual control area to select the Z axis.
[16:31:49] -!- mackerski has quit [Quit: mackerski]
[16:31:56] <PetefromTn> I was gonna jog the head up out of the vise and move over to start picking up the X coord.
[16:32:19] <PetefromTn> Well I turned the MPG wheel after setting .001 increments and started moving it up or so I thought.
[16:32:46] <PetefromTn> Apparently with the buttons Connor made for the MPG you HAVE TO press those buttons NOT the manual control buttons.
[16:33:14] <Connor> Yea, they're independent.
[16:33:15] <PetefromTn> When I started MPG wheeling the head up instead the Y continued forward pressing the champfer mill against the vise jaw.
[16:33:27] -!- ve7it [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:33:33] <Connor> You You damage the vise jaw ?
[16:33:35] <PetefromTn> Well before I realized what happened I heard a snap and the tool went flying...
[16:33:50] <PetefromTn> Fortunately all that happened was the tool breakage.
[16:33:52] <generic_nick|2> nice, good work!
[16:34:08] <generic_nick|2> it wont be your last
[16:34:10] <PetefromTn> The vise actually moved a tad out of alignment and there does not appear to be any physical damage to the tool...
[16:34:24] <PetefromTn> The tool was not spinning at the time...
[16:34:34] <PetefromTn> generic_nick|2 Thanks man for your support LOL.
[16:34:40] <generic_nick|2> i just got over $140 for broken tools from my metal recycler
[16:34:57] <PetefromTn> I got a small box full of broken bits here.
[16:35:09] <generic_nick|2> almost $10/lb
[16:35:27] <PetefromTn> I really thought the edge finder would fit in the chuck but apparently not the chuck is quite small despite its large body size...
[16:35:49] <PetefromTn> Oh well, that was frustratin...
[16:36:16] <PetefromTn> any way to make the buttons work so that it does not matter which one you press? I could see this happening again.
[16:36:58] <Connor> I'll have to look into it.
[16:37:22] <generic_nick|2> and2?

[17:20:40] <generic_nick|2> ah ok.
[17:20:40] <IchGuckLive> simple MDI
[17:20:58] <IchGuckLive> and with a M100 you can reload the AXIS gui
[17:21:02] <generic_nick|2> i thought you needed glade for anything that wasnt just hal pin related
[17:21:09] <IchGuckLive> so it is also in the display

[17:25:25] <Tom_itx> i'll add that and see what it does
[17:25:26] <Tom_itx> thanks
[17:25:37] <IchGuckLive> you need the M100
[17:26:01] <Tom_itx> i usually set my fixture offsets at the beginning of a run so i'd probably never notice it
[17:26:13] <generic_nick|2> i should put in regular jog buttons too
[17:26:23] <generic_nick|2> rapid jog i mean
[17:26:46] <PetefromTn> hopefully with some sorta safety..

[17:37:05] <andypugh> Unknown brand, was probably made by Landrover as a special. Technically it is flash-change not CAT.
[17:37:31] <PetefromTn> whazza flash change?
[17:37:44] <andypugh> It would cost me more to post it than that eBay one costs.
[17:37:54] <PetefromTn> yeah I am sure...

[18:03:47] <IchGuckLive> you can also use the display PROGRAM_PREFIX =

[21:22:25] <GammaX-Shop|2> I feel kinda dumb rite now but I want to say no. I downloaded the iso and installed it and then updated via package repo
[21:22:57] <GammaX-Shop|2> I commented te line out and it still says same error
[21:25:52] <andypugh> Does it say EMC_HOME or LINUXCNC_HOME at the moment?
[21:27:08] <andypugh> It is quite likely that you need the LinuxCNC sourcecode, that variable points to the linuxcnc-dev directory on my machine.
[21:27:50] <GammaX-Shop|2> The current error if you reffering to says | makefile:33: /o/mbrtuport.d: no such file or directory | Makefile:36: *** missing seperator. Stop.
[21:28:08] <skunkworks> http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.5/html/hal/comp.html#_installing
[21:28:10] <GammaX-Shop|2> wether I take out that line or not.
[21:28:28] <GammaX-Shop|2> skunkworks: comp wont install this file...
[21:28:46] <skunkworks> but did you do sudo apt-get install linuxcnc-dev
[21:29:06] <GammaX-Shop|2> yeah ive had that
[21:29:23] <GammaX-Shop|2> its a .c file... gets loads of errors when trying to install it
[21:30:46] <andypugh> You probably need the CFLAGS line back in, but it needs to have an actual location for EMC2_HOME, because that is where it finds the headers

[21:31:39] sliptonic_away is now known as sliptonic
[21:32:16] <GammaX-Shop|2> andypugh: I understand what your saying except for the part where I need the source code....
[21:32:32] <andypugh> Well, you might not.
[21:32:52] <andypugh> It may be that linuxcnc-dev installs the headers.

[21:40:51] <andypugh> does your makefile reference EMC2_HOME?
[21:41:15] <GammaX-Shop|2> no I changed that to linuxcnc_home
[21:41:29] <andypugh> not LINUXCNC_HOME ?
[21:44:49] <andypugh> It is possible (but I am guessing here) that you need EXTRA_CFLAGS += -I /usr/include/linuxcnc -Wall
[21:45:27] <GammaX-Shop|2> sorry LINUXCNC_HOME
[21:45:28] <GammaX-Shop|2> EXTRA_CFLAGS += -I$ (LINUXCNC_HOME) /include/linuxcnc -Wall
[21:45:28] <GammaX-Shop|2> EXTRA_CFLAGS*
[21:45:33] <andypugh> ie, pointing to the LinuxCNC headers, not using the EMC2_HOME environment variable. Which you don't have
[21:48:13] <andypugh> Actually, you _probably_ just need to set RUN_IN_PLACE=no
[21:48:29] <GammaX-Shop|2> ill try it out
[21:48:30] <GammaX-Shop|2> nope same error on line 33 and 36
[21:48:30] <GammaX-Shop|2> well I commented some lines so it may be 32/35 or 31/35
[21:48:48] <andypugh> ie, at the command prompt, RUN_IN_PLACE=no
[21:48:55] <andypugh> then export RUN_IN_PLCE
[21:49:08] <andypugh> (and check it is there with env )
[21:51:55] <GammaX-Shop|2> env is not showing run in place = no
[21:51:59] <GammaX-Shop|2> but I commented out that line and it said
[21:52:35] <GammaX-Shop|2> *** extraneous `endif''. stop
[21:52:54] <andypugh> Yes, it would.
[21:53:43] <andypugh> Make it ifeq(1,1)
[21:54:10] <r00t4rd3d> http://www.google.com/wallet/send-money/
[21:54:12] <andypugh> And make that change I suggested to the EXTRA_CFLAGS line
[21:59:09] <GammaX-Shop|2> did as you said, now the original error is popping up for .o/mbrtuport.d no such file or directory
[22:03:40] <andypugh> Yes, I am finding the same thing.
[22:04:46] <GammaX-Shop|2> I wonder why this is happening..
[22:05:19] <andypugh> Well, because there is no such file or directory, mainly
[22:07:57] <GammaX-Shop|2> lol yeah that is true
[22:08:43] <andypugh> I wish there was sopmeont paying attention who actually understands makefiles.
[22:09:52] <andypugh> That mysterious word was "someone"
[22:09:55] <Tom_itx> i wish i knew makefiles period

[22:10:40] <Tom_itx> except avr
[22:11:04] <GammaX-Shop|2> literally
[22:11:04] <GammaX-Shop|2> is there another way to instlal the .c file?
[22:12:33] <andypugh> You are not trying to "install" it, you are trying to compile it.

[22:19:00] <Tom_itx> it is space sensitive?
[22:21:02] <andypugh> That's the "missing separator"

[22:57:29] <andypugh> do you have modbus-version.h in your /usr/include?
[22:58:10] <GammaX-Shop|2> I do not
[22:59:33] <andypugh> how about in (modbus folder)/src ?
[23:00:20] <GammaX-Shop|2> there is in /usr/local/include/modbus
[23:00:39] <andypugh> Ah, OK.
[23:01:08] <andypugh> So, you stand more chance than me of compiling
[23:01:48] <GammaX-Shop|2> lol
