===Local Installation=== To experiment with EMC2/Axis machine on your personal Ubuntu/Debian setup, you may not want to apt-get emc2 because that depends on a special rtai kernel and Ubuntu 8.04. Here's a way to apt-get the pure simulator: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?EMC2_Pure_Simulator If you are badass, you can compile the code in simulation mode following the instructions here: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Installing_EMC2#Building_emc2_simulator The resulting binary should run and give you a UI on your system. There's actually nothing machine-specific that you need at this point: your UI will look pretty much exactly what we have now. Select the "axis.ini" config file. You should now just be able to: *open one of the sample gcode files *power the machine 'on' (unset emergency stop [red X], and set power [orange square] buttons) *'home' the various axes (must home all axes, use radio buttons to select) *'run' the gcode. (blue "play" triangle) For most of the configurations there is a smaller window w/ an inverted cone representing the spindle (this is the default view). This will show the progress of your milling run. You can change the view and pan/zoom/tilt with the mouse. For a sanity check, try simulating a run of the NB logo gcode from [[Identity]] Then try gcode from the [[#Toolchains | toolchain ]] of your choice.
