LinuxCNC Bare Bones Part 3 - stepconf Wizard

Updated: Mar 28, 2021

Thank you Phil Timpson for Part 3. I am loving seeing your little archive full of wonderful stuff growing.


COMING SOON! Watch this space for a LinuxCNC review and guide on setting up our New EMG Precision UTS-2 Tool Height Setter available here.... https://www.emgprecision.com/uts-2-tool-height-setter



Anyway, back to business....


In this video, Phil covers getting a basic parallel port machine up and running on LinuxCNC on a G540 driver board. This same setup is used for many other parallel boards on the market as well, so this should be useful for anyone looking to run LinuxCNC on an old parallel port PC.
