[00:24:29] <Lcvette> Gmoccapy
[00:25:00] <Lcvette> It's still meh
[00:25:09] <hazzy-m> very
[00:25:11] <Lcvette> Lol
[00:26:11] <Lcvette> For the lathe probe basic, sure it doesn't have atc, is there much left on it before it's useable?
[00:26:22] <Lcvette> Since*
[00:26:50] <hazzy-m> well, I guess not
[00:27:08] <hazzy-m> jogging is not perfect
[00:27:21] <Lcvette> I have an mpg
[00:27:58] <hazzy-m> well, you might be set then
[00:27:59] <Lcvette> So that should solve that
[00:28:07] <hazzy-m> I'm running my mill with qcontrol
[00:28:07] <hazzy-m> LOL
[00:28:16] <Lcvette> Just the tool offset stuff I think to hen
[00:28:20] <hazzy-m> and PB is much more complete
[00:28:38] <hazzy-m> what do you need for tool offsets?
[00:28:44] <hazzy-m> the tooltable should have it all
[00:28:54] <hazzy-m> it won;t be a fancy interfact
[00:28:55] <Lcvette> The touch
[00:28:56] <hazzy-m> but will work
[00:30:50] <Lcvette> The offsets page for setting up the work

[09:08:46] <JT-qtpyvcp> is there a way to display the LinuxCNC error messages in the status bar?
[10:07:27] <Lcvette> i thought it did on probe basic?
[10:07:32] <Lcvette> bottom left of screen
[10:07:53] <Lcvette> morning
[10:08:08] <hazzy-m> morning
[10:08:12] <JT-Shop2> I'll look in a bit
[10:08:14] <JT-Shop2> morning
[10:08:24] <hazzy-m> No, need the new signals for that
[10:08:32] <JT-Shop2> ok
[10:15:36] <hazzy-m> "Now this is where the rubber meets the road and the power of QtPyVCP shines."
[10:15:42] <hazzy-m> LOLOL
[10:16:56] <hazzy-m> man, just reading the tutorials, I'm learning a lot!
[10:17:05] <hazzy-m> I did not know about button groups
[10:17:15] <JT-Shop2> I couldn't resist lol
[10:17:18] <hazzy-m> awesome work JT!
[10:17:29] <JT-Shop2> are you polling the error channel now?
[10:18:25] <JT-Shop2> do you like the way I used the button group for the keypads?
[10:18:43] <Lcvette> button groups?
[10:18:53] <hazzy-m> yes! I did not that was possible
[10:19:18] <hazzy-m> Hmm, I think status is pulling it
[10:19:38] <hazzy-m> there should be a status:error channel you can use in the rules
[10:21:00] <JT-Shop2> ok
[10:21:14] <hazzy-m> it looks to be broken
[10:21:18] <hazzy-m> fix comming up
[10:23:12] <JT-Shop2> I don't think we are lacking much to have a fully functional GUI builder
[10:28:05] <Lcvette> whoo hoo!
[10:28:48] * JT-Shop2 converts the shop over from money spending mode to money making mode :)
[10:29:18] <Lcvette> lcvette looks forward to getting back to that mode
[10:46:25] <Roguish> JT-Shop2.,, hey, are you going to create a touch gui for the BP?
[10:49:35] * hazzy-m uploaded an image: image.png (36KB) < https://matrix.org >
[10:51:07] <Lcvette> BP?
[10:52:22] <JT-Shop2> Roguish: yes
[10:52:34] <JT-Shop2> BridgePort knee mill
[10:52:35] <Roguish> so, are you done yet?
[10:52:45] <Lcvette> ah
[10:52:47] <Lcvette> nice!
[10:52:56] <JT-Shop2> hazzy-m: sweet!
[10:53:15] <Roguish> i'd like to see it and probably use it. can probably help tweek it eventually.
[10:53:19] <JT-Shop2> Roguish: no, but it would only take an hour to make it now that I know what to do
[10:53:39] <JT-Shop2> do you have a BP with a touch screen?
[10:53:57] * JT-Shop2 wanders down to get Sweet Pea's egg before it freezes
[10:54:00] <Roguish> i have a Series II. knee is the Z.
[10:54:12] <Roguish> and a small 15" touch screen.
[10:54:31] <Roguish> but no problem getting a bigger one.

[10:55:42] <Roguish> hazzy-m: nice error message. can it be cleared?
[10:55:42] <Lcvette> posted a ling to some elo 22" touch screens for a steal on ebay yesterday
[10:55:47] <Lcvette> I ordered another for my lathe build

[10:56:28] <Lcvette> link*
[10:56:32] <hazzy-m> Roguish: Don't get a bigger one, we small screen people need to stand together, otherwise we'll never get a small screen UI
[10:56:33] <hazzy-m> LOL
[10:56:39] <Roguish> Lcvette. have you got one to work with debian (or what ever) yet
[10:57:00] <Lcvette> https://www.ebay.com
[10:57:16] <Lcvette> yeah, with stratch they work right out of the gate with no issue
[10:57:18] <Roguish> hazzy-m. i'm old and have fat, shaky fingers. need lots of realestate.
[10:57:21] <Lcvette> stretch
[10:57:25] <hazzy-m> the ELO screens are plug n play with debian
[10:57:49] <Roguish> Lcvette, that is cheap.
[10:57:52] <JT-qtpyvcp> Roguish, I'm waiting on a new motherboard to fit a miniItx case I have for the BP
[10:58:12] <JT-qtpyvcp> Roguish, my tutorial is build on 800 x 600 !
[10:58:27] <Lcvette> yeah, you need a power brick for it
[10:58:33] <Lcvette> and cables etc
[10:58:40] <JT-qtpyvcp> what is the resolution of your touch screen?
[10:58:44] <Lcvette> i grabbed power brick on amazon for $12
[10:58:54] <Roguish> JT-Shop2: have you ever seen these: https://www.unipunch.com
[10:59:05] <JT-qtpyvcp> IIRC my Elo is 1028 x 7something
[10:59:22] <Lcvette> and cables are regular usb and whatever video cable you use
[10:59:39] <Roguish> i think my monoprice is an elo clone. probably 1024x768
[10:59:48] <Roguish> usb touch control.
[11:00:14] <JT-qtpyvcp> yea that is the size I'm making for the BP
[11:00:41] <hazzy-m> mine is 1024x768 too
[11:01:15] <Lcvette> i have a 17" elo boxer that is also 1024x768
[11:01:39] <Roguish> i have some time over the next few weeks. i might give it a shot. base on the JT tutorial..............
[11:02:21] <JT-qtpyvcp> I think my motherboard will arrive today so I'll load debian 9 and linuxcnc down here and start on my GUI
[11:02:32] <Lcvette> that is the monitor i plugged in last night.. man did it feel tiny
[11:02:39] <JT-qtpyvcp> I have an Asus touch screen down here to play with
[11:02:43] <Roguish> hazzy-m: can those error messages be cleared? and/or written over?
[11:03:08] <Lcvette> hey do you guys have a recommendation for a cheap mobo/processor that has good latency on linuxcnc
[11:03:17] <Lcvette> the one i have is horrid
[11:05:29] <jthornton> I just ordered a second one of these https://www.amazon.com
[11:06:07] <jthornton> with this memory https://www.amazon.com
[11:06:31] <hazzy-m> Roguish: Not yet, that is just using the messages directaly from the LCNC error channel, I have a much more complete notification system in the works that will alow filtering/clearing messages and viewing past messages
[11:07:08] <Roguish> I have 2 Arock, Q1900 that seem pretty good. pcw likes them also.
[11:07:16] <JT-qtpyvcp> hazzy-m, hows the new decorators coming along?
[11:07:30] <hazzy-m> slow
[11:07:44] <JT-qtpyvcp> I like that one because it's a microItx and has two NIC's
[11:07:52] * hazzy-m is suffering from paralysis by analysis
[11:08:06] * JT-qtpyvcp sends hazzy-m some firewood to warm him up
[11:08:11] <JT-qtpyvcp> lol
[11:08:24] * JT-qtpyvcp heads back to the shop
[11:08:39] * hazzy-m gets some kindling together
[11:09:02] <Roguish> hazzy-m: ok, sounds good.

[11:13:27] <hazzy-m> sorry for the spam
[11:13:40] <Lcvette> Roguish: I like the ASRock board i have i my big mill, it rocks..no pun intended
[11:13:49] <Lcvette> spam is good!
[11:15:39] <Not-e6c6> [02qtpyvcp] 07KurtJacobson pushed 031 commit to 03gh-pages [+356/-0/±0] 13https://git.io/fhyO7

[11:19:20] <JT-Shop2> Lcvette: the latency is <40,000 IIRC maybe lower
[11:19:52] <Lcvette> thats much better than what i have
[11:20:05] <JT-Shop2> plenty good for uspace
[11:20:10] <Lcvette> lcvette has 160,000 and 94,000
[11:20:17] <Lcvette> :(
[11:20:22] * JT-Shop2 just noticed he forgot to get the TIG welder out :(
[11:20:41] <JT-Shop2> 160k is pretty bad
[11:21:12] <hazzy-m> Lcvette: have you tried truning hyperthreading off etc. in the bios?
[11:21:29] <hazzy-m> that can make a significant difference
[11:21:44] <hazzy-m> also you might try booting with isolcpus=1
[11:22:10] * JT-Shop2 plans out the least number of sliding tile moves to get the TIG welder out
[11:22:17] <Roguish> shut all that stuff off in the Bios. as much as you can.
[11:22:20] <Lcvette> i think i did alot of this when we were trying to make my other one run on the big machine and not much helped
[11:22:40] <Lcvette> i assumed it wouldn't be an issue with the pci cards but clearly it is
[11:23:05] <Lcvette> i had purchased two identical computers on cncbashers recommendations
[11:23:08] <pcw_home> as long as you dont overrun the 1 ms servo thread, latency is not terribly important
[11:23:09] <hazzy-m> if you can get it to 100k then you should be ok
[11:23:15] <Lcvette> turned out they were not good choices
[11:23:28] <Lcvette> so i have two complete pc's no good for linux
[11:23:30] <Lcvette> lol
[11:23:58] <Roguish> those are now entertainment centers............
[11:24:00] <hazzy-m> hey peter!
[11:24:06] <pcw_home> Unless you are getting real time errors they should be fine
[11:24:39] <Lcvette> i got the red warning at startup
[11:25:16] <Lcvette> hey peter!
[11:25:33] <Lcvette> pcw_home: is the red warning at startup the one you refer too?
[11:25:41] <pcw_home> Ahh not good, but almost any latency in general is ok unless you overrun the 1 ms servo thread
[11:27:17] <Lcvette> b eing i just need a mobo and processor if there is an option that puts me safely where the latency isn't something i have to worry about i'd prefer that
[11:27:38] <Lcvette> i hate having things loom because they always show up when i least expect it
[11:27:39] <Lcvette> lol
[11:27:46] <Lcvette> like shorted transofrmers
[11:28:22] <pcw_home> well even the startup errors are not really significant
[11:30:08] <pcw_home> on a software stepgen system they are important since they could cause a stall
[11:30:43] <Lcvette> i stopped the test because it was getting out of control and i figured i would need a new mobo
[11:30:56] <Lcvette> but i assume it was going where the other one did which was into the 300k range
[11:31:10] <pcw_home> but with a servo or hardware stepgen system they are not really very important
[11:31:53] <pcw_home> 500 usec of latency should be fine on a 1 ms servo thread (especially if you enable the DPLL)
[11:32:36] <Lcvette> is 300,000 under 500usec?
[11:32:59] <hazzy-m> yes, it is 300usec :)
[11:33:03] <Lcvette> is that what the latency number is
[11:33:06] <Lcvette> ok
[11:33:10] <Lcvette> so is ok
[11:33:33] <Lcvette> dpll?
[11:34:00] <Lcvette> PCW, you should start reselling linux pc hardware, you would make a fortune
[11:34:40] <Lcvette> i bet there is a percentage of people who turn away from linuxcnc because of this very uncertainty
[11:36:26] <Lcvette> hazzy: hazzy you have really low latency what is your setup?
[11:37:09] <JT-Shop> Lcvette: this pc has < 4,000 base thread latency :)
[11:38:03] <Lcvette> 4,000?
[11:38:12] <Lcvette> thought you said 40,000
[11:38:36] <JT-Shop> this is a different pc than the miniItx
[11:38:47] <Lcvette> ah
[11:38:50] <Lcvette> what is it?
[11:38:55] <Lcvette> :D
[11:39:45] <JT-Shop> https://imagebin.ca
[11:39:49] <JT-Shop> my assembly line lol
[11:40:05] <JT-Shop> I'd have to look under the hood to see what it is
[11:40:42] <hazzy-m> Lcvette: I am using an Asus M5A78L-M LX PLUS with an AMD Athlon II, its fantastic
[11:41:27] <JT-Shop> Base Board Information
[11:41:27] <JT-Shop> Manufacturer: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
[11:41:27] <JT-Shop> Product Name: H81M-S2H GSM
[11:41:43] <hazzy-m> I had a whole bunch of them that a recycled because I figured they'd be no good :(
[11:42:44] <JT-Shop> IIRC if I run the latency test all night it never gets up to 10k
[11:43:04] <JT-Shop> and the servo thread stays under 5k
[11:44:09] <Lcvette> yeah, seems to be something magic about that lga1150 chipset obo era
[11:44:57] <Lcvette> thats like the asrock H97M prov and G3268 intel chip in my big machine, never sees above 10k
[11:45:09] <Lcvette> hell think it never went over 6 or 7k
[11:45:25] <Lcvette> but i can't find anymore of them
[11:45:58] <Lcvette> G3258 sorry
[11:47:56] <hazzy-m> Lcvette: This is my mobo: https://www.ebay.com
[11:48:24] <hazzy-m> I saved the CPUs and you can have one if you want
[11:48:31] <hazzy-m> I think its 3.2 GHz
[11:48:51] <Lcvette> oooh
[11:48:57] <hazzy-m> Can't believe I trashed thosem darn it
[11:49:33] <Lcvette> i know!
[11:49:41] <Lcvette> could have been selling them
[11:50:13] <Lcvette> make nice cases with touch screens and mesa cards and sell them with PB preinstalled
[11:50:14] <Lcvette> :D
[11:50:56] <hazzy-m> there you go!
[11:52:36] -!- Roguish has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[11:53:05] <hazzy-m> the CPU is an AMD Athlon ii ADX250OCK23GM
[11:54:28] <Lcvette> those are cheap
[11:55:07] <hazzy-m> wow, they are!
[11:55:57] <hazzy-m> I like that, cheap things that work well
[11:55:58] <hazzy-m> haha
[12:02:02] -!- Roguish has joined #hazzy
[12:09:11] <Lcvette> lcvette is going down a rabbit hole
[12:09:15] <Lcvette> lol
[12:09:36] <Lcvette> he has intel's page open comparing processors and asrocks webpage open comparing mobos
[12:09:58] <Lcvette> looking for what might be the difference between good and bad linuxcnc machine component choices
[12:10:31] <Lcvette> this really should be something that is written somewhere btu i suppoe it would be a nightmare to keep up with
[12:24:41] <TurBoss> helllo
[12:26:22] <hazzy-m> hola
[12:29:14] * hazzy-m 's can hardly move his hands because of chilblains :(
[12:30:07] <hazzy-m> I'd much rather it was 0 and dry than 40 and humide
[13:12:11] <TurBoss> :O
[13:14:58] <Lcvette> hola turboss!
[13:15:05] <TurBoss> hello!
[13:15:20] <Lcvette> sorry lcvette is headed into the shop now to get an order out
[13:15:26] <Lcvette> :(
[13:15:34] <Lcvette> back later this evening hopefully
[13:15:38] <TurBoss> latter
[13:15:42] <Lcvette> to work on the lathe some more
[13:15:46] <Lcvette> :D
[13:30:49] <JT-qtpyvcp> hazzy-m, chilblains looks horrible when you google it
[13:31:05] <JT-qtpyvcp> at least the mayo clinic photo looks bad
[13:32:06] <JT-qtpyvcp> while your resting think about the DROWidget not showing relative :)
[13:36:30] <JT-qtpyvcp> looks like reference_type in Designer property Getters/Setters is not used anywhere

[13:41:17] <Not-e6c6> [02qtpyvcp] 07jethornton created branch 03dro_widget - 13https://git.io/fhCou
[13:41:45] <JT-qtpyvcp> take a look when you get a chance, not tested here yet gotta get some work done
[14:24:36] <TurBoss> ohh!!
[14:24:43] <hazzy-m> JT-qtpyvcp: Yeah, chilblains are not fun
[14:24:46] <hazzy-m> I'll take a look!
[14:25:00] <hazzy-m> TurBoss: What is it?
[14:25:10] <TurBoss> JT commit
[14:25:16] <hazzy-m> oh
[14:25:45] <TurBoss> question: is this any good?
[14:25:46] <TurBoss> https://www.amazon.com
[14:25:47] <TurBoss> TB660
[14:26:12] <TurBoss> TB6600
[14:26:53] <TurBoss> 4.5A
[14:28:18] <hazzy-m> probably ok
[14:28:24] <TurBoss> cool!
[14:28:33] <TurBoss> is nema 23
[14:28:42] <TurBoss> 2A/F
[14:29:13] <Roguish> just curious, why do you guys go with stepper motors
[14:29:24] <TurBoss> cheap

[14:31:18] <TurBoss> is that important?
[14:32:11] <hazzy-m> well, it depends on how they are rated, I would trust those other ones more even though they have a lower rating, more metal to keep things cool

[15:24:56] <JT-qtpyvcp> hazzy-m, not working yet I must have missed some detail
[15:47:49] <Not-e6c6> [02qtpyvcp] 07jethornton pushed 031 commit to 03dro_widget [+0/-0/±1] 13https://git.io/fhyKk
[15:47:51] <Not-e6c6> [02qtpyvcp] 07jethornton 03d9bd998 - this looked correct but still does not work
[18:37:42] * JT-qtpyvcp starts installing debian 9 on the BP PC
[18:38:02] <JT-qtpyvcp> and doesn't care about data... on the last day of the month
[18:49:46] <hazzy-m> haha, get your last cent out of it
[18:50:16] <jthornton> yea lol
[18:50:36] <jthornton> did you get a chance to look at my monkey see monkey do code?
[18:50:36] <hazzy-m> since your on a limited plan, how do you do your website? To you use a hosting service?
[18:50:56] <hazzy-m> checking now!
[18:51:04] <hazzy-m> just got back in
[18:51:16] <jthornton> yes, just switching from webhost4life to dreamhost
[18:52:27] <jthornton> dreamhost has free SSL and webhost4life cost $40 a year and they let it expire without saying a word
[18:52:57] <hazzy-m> huh, that is not very good
[18:53:29] <jthornton> yea renewed it this morning and it's still not up :(
[18:55:12] <hazzy-m> I use namecheap for DNS, they have been fantastic
[18:55:28] <hazzy-m> I think they have hosting too, and SSL is free (I think)
[18:55:42] <hazzy-m> https://www.namecheap.com
[18:56:59] <jthornton> hmm 50% off first year first purchase
[18:57:33] <jthornton> too late I'm on dreamhost for the next 3 years at least lol
[18:58:13] <hazzy-m> haha, dreamhost is very good I hear
[18:58:33] <hazzy-m> I think that is what the LCNC forum is on
[18:58:39] <jthornton> it's what Chris Radek uses for linuxcnc
[18:59:15] <jthornton> I was meaning to switch before the ssl ran out but could not find my roundtuit
[18:59:56] <hazzy-m> yeah, those things are getting scarcer and scarcer
[18:59:56] <jthornton> cool thing I can setup mirrors for all my web sites so I can get them up going before switching the dns
[19:00:11] <hazzy-m> oh, that is great!
[19:00:22] <hazzy-m> work out all the bugs
[19:00:49] <jthornton> not a big deal with gnipsel.com but for measus.com and spyderstore.com it is
[19:01:38] <hazzy-m> I was browsing spiderstore a few days ago, you got some nice stuff on there!
[19:02:23] <jthornton> thanks
[19:02:37] <jthornton> but it's spyder not spider lol
[19:02:49] <jthornton> damn canucks lol
[19:03:06] <hazzy-m> LOL, I always get that wrong
[19:03:46] <hazzy-m> I can't hardly spell my own name though ..
[19:03:53] <hazzy-m> xD
[19:06:09] <jthornton> a few times I could not remember my name... but I don't do that anymore lol

[19:13:18] <jthornton> https://forum.linuxcnc.org
[19:13:36] <hazzy-m> its a hopeless mess
[19:13:57] <hazzy-m> I'm going to try and reowrk i to use the positions plugin
[19:13:57] <hazzy-m> https://github.com
[19:14:01] <jthornton> hmm, that does not sound good
[19:14:29] <Roguish> ok, just rode 45 min on the indoor trainer, Janis and Big Brother in the background
[19:15:05] <jthornton> hmm I need to look at positions plugin
[19:15:32] <jthornton> Janis Joplin?
[19:16:49] <jthornton> I guess I'd better just use positions in the tutorial for now, I understand how that works
[19:17:52] <jthornton> time for a bowl of Texas Red and Diners Driveins and Dives
[19:18:02] <hazzy-m> Roguish: Nice!
[19:18:42] * hazzy-m is sitting down for some chicken fenugreek
[19:21:50] <Roguish> jthornton: of course, Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Company. Cheap Thrill album. I think I actually have the vinyl.

[21:42:03] <Lcvette> what a day
[21:43:19] <Lcvette> i had to fix a bad part (out of tolerance turned part) and had to use the 7x10 HF special
[21:43:33] <Lcvette> but it has always been a bit of a weeny and this was 304 SS
[21:43:47] <hazzy-m> Uh oh
[21:43:56] <Lcvette> and my last part in inventory to complete a pricy order
[21:44:13] <Lcvette> so lcvette refurbished a HF 7x10 lathe today
[21:45:04] <Lcvette> did the sandpaper lapping trick on the bed to mate in the saddle and that shit worked incredible
[21:46:21] <Lcvette> i also made custom underside way adjusters and shimmed them to within .0005" of peerrfection
[21:46:56] <Lcvette> they are a little on the tight side, but they mate up parallel no to the underside instead of being at an angle
[21:46:58] <Lcvette> lol
[21:48:32] <Lcvette> i replaced the spindle bearing with some nachi tapered rollers i had bought for it
[21:48:48] <Lcvette> i also bought a 4" spindle for it, but i couldn't find it anywhere
[21:49:45] <Lcvette> and of course i came in now at the end of the night after completing the job and opened the freezer and it hit me.. i had put it in the freezer right when i got it because i knew i would be doing the bearings on it
[21:49:56] <Lcvette> its been in there for about 2.5 years now
[21:49:58] <Lcvette> lol
[21:51:24] <Lcvette> the results of the work were nothing short of impressive
[21:51:32] <Lcvette> it handled the 304 ss part like a pro
