Absolutely amazing. I'd be ecstatic if I could get ANY of those 3 images burned.

You can burn those images.
You just need the 57CNC (latest version) - that has a parallel port output which will feed directly into your xylotex controller.

Re: My adventures with Auggie.
Tweakie,
Thank you for the advice.
I've never really liked the Xylotec board so i just ordered up the 57CNC board and 3 stepper drivers along with some cables. Ships tomorrow from Slovenia.
Once I get the machine running on the Pokeys board and Auggie, I'm sure I'll be back here for guidance on the actual image prep to see if I can get the results you have shown in this thread.

Good luck, yell if you get into trouble, sounds like your on it though.

Hello everyone and happy new year ArtF wrote: Tweakie:
Ive checked and Im pretty sure its a limitation based on hardware. While in config one can do less than 1khz, Auggie updates its registers at 1Khz, and usually that means a register reset in the PWM chip at 1Khz, if I dont miss my guess Mat will tell me it cant go lower unless Auggie goes slower..
About what @Tweakie says , i has the same problem years ago with same " hardware limitation on PWM " so i write a small function without be based on timer tick , just to trigger the function . Unfortunately i dont know how to do that in Auggie , i need to study first how that work , the code is written in pure C and very simple to understand.Also the code permit to adjust the duty cycle period if that matter.

Can be good way to understand how that work in Auggie .
Happy new year again
