possible solution
Drip feeding doesn't tell you when a machine is DONE performing some code. You would need to get a message back to tell you it is done. Drip feeding was used on old CNC controls with very limited memory. LinuxCNC has all of virtual memory to store code as it comes in, so it won't really work like drip feeding, the interpreter will suck up all the code it can and read ahead. I believe there is a mechanism where G-code can be sent via NFS or other method and then LinuxCNC can be ordered to execute it via emcrsh. Jon that kinda limits it with no feedback as a solution to the problem being discussed. I was just thinking out loud and thanx to my senseless rambling and your input I have learned something Great!!!! But would it need feedback if the serve3r was the one sending the code? one would presume that if the code was written for different machines consecutively that the natural g code breaks would do? again just thoughts simply for my edification if (feel free not to reply as its only for my head or input to a possible solution) to the multiple machine sync issue ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
