Re: Firmware to drive X-Y galvanometer

VDX,

I have a Synrad DH marking head that uses the ISA FLCC controller card. However, I have no software to run it. I noticed you were developing a driver for beamconstruct for another project. I was going to do the same for the DH head.

I can find info for plug in development for Beamconstruct, however I cannot find any info on driver development.

Beamconstruct is nice as it has built in slicing intended for laser use. Controlling the FLCC is easy, but a driver must be developed for Beamconstruct. SImply streaming XY coordinates in hex to address 330h is all that is required for positioning.

Can you possibly point me to some info on driver development for Beamconstruct , or possibly offer some help in this endeavor?

I imagine one of the existing drivers could be modified fairly easy if the source is available for at least one that is close.

It would be worthwile to develop a driver for this older hardware as it is becoming more available to hobbyists as companies replace them with newer equipment.

Thanks for your help in advance, and any is much appreciated.

Regards
