Thanks for that, nice touch having the interval/on times adjustable from the status page, very handy.
The WLED should be great for general status conditions and minor warnings at a glance, looking forward to adding some bling to my machines.
Cheers.
Russell.

thanks, but still a lot of work to do (At the moment it is still a proof of concept):
here is the latest source file:
www.multixmedia.org/testme-graph.py
# python3 testme-graph.py riocore/configs/Tangbob/config.json

Hi all,
JCLPCB delivered my self made PCB board. Testing ongoing. I had to order 5 boards. If anyone is interested in one, I have a few spares. Located in the Florida USA.

Put my PCB together! It works! Very happy to have moved on from breadboard to something more reliable!

Just wondering if the MODBUS plugin will handle analog input modules, for things like feed/rapid/jog override? Modules like this one :

I am happy to purchase one for testing if it helps.
Cheers.
Russell.

I think it´s by design that everytime you generate the files, the rio.ini and several other files are overwritten. I have a bunch of customizations in several areas. E.G. Subroutine folder is different, Halui has custom MDI Commands,...
At the moment I do manually copy the sections back. Is there a smarter way of doing that?

Having an interesting issue:
I am in the process of moving from my old PC to a Laptop with LinuxCNC. I have riocore up and running and can flash, ping,... from the laptop. However, the machine is not moving. I see that the inputs work.
Then I tried to copy the complete riocore folder from the old PC to the Laptop as well. Exactly the same files, just another machine. No difference, only inputs are working.
The wiring is correct as the machine works on the old pc.
Any idea what to look for?
