CandCNC G5 bundle

[regpattee]

I upgraded my 10 year year OLD table to the G-5 bundle with the RS-485 kit.
I would highly recommend this CandCNC upgrade for two reasons, first of all the, plug and play system, and outstanding Tech support.

I was so ingrained in having to do all settings by hand, Tech support was a great help in getting me started.

Thanks CandCNC.

Have same system. first table build so have nothing to compare to but it works awsome. Had some issues in beggining with stupid stuff but it works great. Only problem i have now is i cant get sound to work on mini pc. I have tried a ton of stuff just not really good with linux pcs..

Well , the control PC should be dedicated to Motion and cutting when you are running a file. Because the motion and feedback are REAL TIME you don't want background processes running that sap cycles . Playing sound files while cutting or surfing the internet is not recommended . If you wan tot ply videos and listen to music I would suggest another Linux PC loaded up with allof the apps and media you want. CommandCNC is an adaption of LINUXCNC and its a special compile of the Real time Kernel (RTK) . It optimized for real time motion . Its speed allows us to do real tim toolpath monitoring and support thing like the ultra fast VelocityAnti Dive and tighter toolpath tracking . All that being said there shoul \d be an audio driver built in . You should not need to try and load added drivers . They may not work with the RTK since it is mostly optimzed drivers .

not looking for sound while cutting. sometimes in shop instead of going in house i will look up a help video if i run into a problem. I have done it a few times on arclights web page. It would be nice to use computer station in shop. But i also understand what you are saying. I just bring my laptop out in shop now. I just figured that it shouldnt be that hard to get drivers working but i have had no luck. Dont know much about the linux stuff . So I stopped trying.
