Re: Streaming G-code Arudino Program

[Reza Naima]

do you mean building a front end application to feed gcode to mine?   we already have a lot of work that's been done on a java application and I suspect you can reuse a lot of that code.  check out the forum and wiki for more information.

as far a gcode, anything should work.

I found your code.google.com page regarding the use of an Arduino in place of a PC for a CNC machine, nice work!

I am working on a project where I was about to basically create what you had already made, so I appreciate uploading all the source codes. I'm trying to create my own G-code program using Processing 1.2.1, I was curious if you have a .txt file of a G-code which your Arduino program works on? I would like to develop my code to match yours so they can work together.

I appreciate any input on this,

can you post a gcode file that you know works cause Jrstep never seams
to like it
here is a snipet of mine

I use a plane select G17 g18 and every time I use G1, I enter a feedrate  like F.002 per rev or 10.0ipm, I must tell the controller whether I am using ipm or ipr,  I think g98 g99

Because you have spaces between the X and Y variables and the relative values

Try

G1 X3.918 Y0.189

As far as JrStepGUI - I've not gotten it to work either. :/  I think I know what needs to happen but I'm not sure how to implement it (toggle DTR line on connection).
