This will not be the log that will show a working machine. I wanted to update my status because it is a month since my last log, and else people think I have stopped. I am getting there. I actually have the entire connection with GRBL working and stable, and already have a good link with the HP45. Here is a small list of what is left to do:
- Link preheat, set position, and DPI buttons;
- Make python capable of testing the printhead and display status;
- Make the python program capable of sending inkjet lines (and testing that);
- Loading an image;
- converting that image to inkjet lines;
- automatically print those lines.
After that milestone I will modify Oasis for 3D printing. That "SHOULD" not take that long since it is not adding much to the software side, but I have been wrong before.
Have an interface:
Now the news, good for me, bad for the project. Summer has arrived, and I need vacation. So the coming few weeks I will not be working on this project. No logs, probably no answers.
All the files in their most current state are now updated on my website: https://ytec3d.com/oasis-download-page/
None of it is final version, but it is last work I will do on it in several weeks.
Until next time, when I hopefully can show a working machine.
