so im thoroughly fed up with mach3. it hates me, or my gecko g540, or maybe its suicidal. in any case its stalling during contouring programs and im about to give up.
ive downloaded the latest emc2 live cd. id like to install it and try it out on my machine today. the hitch is, that the machine in in no internet land, so i need to have everything ready ahead of time. can someone give me a comprehensive list of things i might need to download ahead of time to get this working?
ive got:
- amd athlon dual core PC (very new)
- pci express paralell card.
- gecko g540 drive set.
- colombo spindle with delta inverter which in theory connect to the gecko pwm but has never worked right.
its a pretty basic setup, and i think theres linux drivers for everything hardware wise.
thanks
