Hello,
yesterday i bought your great software “Scanything”.
Since yesterday i’m trying to make the software work with my cnc router.
But i got some problems with the calibration.
I already made a video of this.
Did you have a solution for me?
I already checked the rotation.
Best regards,
Thomas
Are you sure the camera rotation is correct? If you jog right the image should move left. If you jog up the image should move down.
Yes, if i jog right, the image move to left.
I already checked this.
Are you using an external USB or Ethernet controller with Mach?
I am using a usb controller with Mach3.
That will be the problem. Most USB controllers cause problems when used with Scanything.
Okay, so there is not solution but replace the cnc usb controller?
I have not been able to get USB controllers to work. The only method that has been reliable is to use a parallel port directly.
Years ago I scratch built a CNC router table, using Mach3 and a USB Smoothstepper card. I used Scanything on this table, and it worked fine, once I got the camera orientated right. I’ve since taken that table apart and built a plasma table, which I haven’t used Scanything on. So other than to acknowledge that it is possible to run Scanything on a USB controller, that’s all I got.
