Joined the programming team, to work on the software which operates the machine.
The team followed the steps of the pyGestalt installation:
- install gestalt (python setup.py install)
- install gsArduino library for arduino
- compile and download to arduino triStepShield.ino
- run virtual machine magicmill.py with 096-001a_boot.py in the same directory
-
you should be able to now go to tq.mit.edu/pcbmilling and jog around the machine OR you can import magicmill as a python module and then call methods directly on it.
