Overview

This software and instructions are provided as is, without warranty of any kind. This is a hobby project. Using this might damage your equipment, cause injury or death. Use at your own risk. Original author didn't state the lisence for the code so it remains unknown.

While the PCB is confirmed to work overall, it's very early days for this project and don't expect an easy ride if you go for it.

Code

Original code of DigitalFeed 7e2 is provided in the folder above. It requires tuning a few constants at the top of the main file to fit your lathe and motors.

Notably, it doesn't support belt connection for Z or X motors yet.

Manual

There are some instructions explaining how to operate the ELS that I auto-translated and corrected a bit but expect to invest some time here :)

Gerber files for production

Some PCB production techniques use lead and other nasty stuff. Order at your own risk and dispose properly.

Ordering it from JLCPCB.com takes just a few clicks - upload the ZIP file, use all default settings, choose shipping and checkout. Costs around 20 euro with delivery for 5 PCBs (minumum order).

    I come to you because I want to know the different parameters that must be set in the code and what are the different settings for in the photo below. For example:

    SCREW_X (42) ?? MOTOR_X_STEP_PER_REV ?? REBOUND_X ?? REBOUND_Z ??

    my turn and the same as kachurovskiy if I do the calculation of the x axis so 54/18= 3. (One complete engine revolution =200) So 3x200=600 MOTOR_X_STEP_PER_REV=600??

    As soon as I change its parameters MAX_FEED starts to growl He and yet set to 20

    I hope here someone can help me thank you Screenshot_20220222-093159_Chrome

  • x cross slide questions

    x cross slide questions

    question on tables.html - and in general - on my x axis how do I account for the gear ratio from the x-stepper to cross slide screw pitch. From your thingverse cross slide - it looks like you have a 3x - 54/18 but I'm not seeing that in the digital_feed_7e2 or tables.html code that you have posted. I have a 1mm cross slide but an odd 77/13. I started my els about a year ago and just started working on it again last month. I found your github in the last two weeks - so thanks for posting what you have. I'm not that good with github - so not sure how to correctly tag this

    Tachometer incorrect values

    If switch from tachometer to another mode and then switch mode back - values become incorrect. Also it will be good to decrease refresh rate of tachometer values

    Resistor arrays

    In the BOM you have "4 1kOhm resistor arrays with 9 resistors each" but the part that is linked: (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32840103807.html) has 9 PIN which is 8 resistors and a common isn't it? I hope the link is the correct one as this is what I have ordered :) Just checked and the circuit diagram has the 8 resistors and a common pin.

  • Beeper

    Beeper

    I'm not getting any Beeps from the Megaels, I assumed that the beeper type is the sort that gives a constant beep sound while power is applied, not the sort that you need to modulate the power to get a frequency? It is polarised which I am sure I got the correct way round. Is there anything else I am missing? Did I assume wrong about the type of Beeper?

    Table HTML

    hello to all I have a small problem with the cone option for example when I want to make a 45 degree cone it is not 45 degrees however the cross carriage moves well 50 m minutes as well as the z axis everything is well entered in the code as it should be my screw of the crossed axis is 1 mm the screw of the z axis is 2 mm the cross axis driver is set to 400 the z axis driver is set to 800 I have a gear ratio on the cross axis of 3:1. I find that on the automatic threading mode it takes form big passes

    Again sorry for the translation if it is not good I do with Google 😉 thank you

Freeze OS is a cross-platform operating system emulator that runs on top of an interpreter called the Freeze interpreter. The operating system code is basically written in the Freeze programming language that is passed to the Freeze interpreter. The idea is to skip instances where the operating system needs to handle low level operators and focus on higher level stuff, like malware analysis, AI, and others.
