Re: Acornsix - retain existing AC servos

Do you have manuals for the servo drivers?

For Acorn6 they must accept step and dir commands.

Re: Printing out Intercon programs

I think there is no way to print Intercon files in a readable format.

If you want help, just post them here in the machining section as they are.

Re: OPCON and USB-BOB

Now the box is printing and by the way this 5m USB extension works well with the BOB, also with the first version

Re: Reversing Spindle for individual grooving operation

That is for g-code.

Intercon is using the direction from the tool lib.

If you set a tool to CCW it will turn this direction in Intercon also.

Re: Video Walkthrough of How I Use the Acorn

Nice Video.

One main reason Linux CNC is cheaper, is that the commonly used 7I76EU Mesa is usually out of stock, so nothing to pay for 🤣

Re: Lathe Work/CNC12 and Post Processing

fusion 360 has a Centroid PP for turning, but with most parts I am faster using Intercon.

Re: OPCON and USB-BOB

If analoge joysticks are not supported, I prefer wheels and buttons for speed multiplication...

My first attempt is printing now with BOB mounted on the back of te panel for easy wiring.
