I am trying to resurrect an Induma F1 knee mill that was set up for CNC and run for a number of years on a number of DOS based systems. It was retired to manual service when DOS became too hard to support and I got it as a 'severance package' when the company went under. The final iteration was an attempt to switch to a Linux based system (BDI / EMC2) that was beginning to work when it was stopped for financial reasons. I got all the hardware but none of the documentation or software and my knowledge of Linux was near zero so I continued to use it as a manual machine. I have since become a regular Linux user so I want to have another go at it.
It has a PMDX131 breakout board and 4 Gecko 201 drivers (not sure why 4. There are only 2 steppers) that move the bed when I connect them to a signal generator. The only remaining question is LinuxCNC setup information. Does anyone have information on the 131 or is it similar enough to the 132 so that a 132 setup will get me running?
