Buildbotics Forum

Hi, This can also be done by making the Raspberry pi always use a specific IP-address. There is a lot of guides online for doing exactly this. For instance https://www.makeuseof.com/raspberry-pi-set-static-ip/ I would agree it is more tidy to have the network router assign the same IP-adress every t...

Hi, Doug and thanks for your reply. Late last evening I eventually had some time on my hands to try with different monitors on the buildbotics controller. I tried a total of five different monitors and couldn't get a single one of them working. 3 of them were older displays using the HDMI to DVI ada...

Hi! I'm having quite some trouble getting my monitor to work with the buildbotics controller. I have tried just about every combination of settings in the boot/config.txt file as suggested by several forums. For instance here: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=166650 . And here is the l...

Yes, that solved it.
Thx :)

Ok, thanks Doug :) Now I understand the confusion here. You see, my limit switch has the switch on the high side and hence when it is closed the output of the limit switch is tied to +24V, when the switch is open there is a pull down resistor inside the limit-switch that makes the output go low. I h...

Hi, I'm, having some issues getting my limit switches to work correctly for my custom machine. I have PNP NO inductive proximity switches in both directions (min and max) on all three axes. They are supplied by +24V and share ground with the buildbotics controller which I bought a few weeks back. I ...
