I was asked by several people about the Linux CNC installation in my previous video on bench-testing the servos and drivers for my DIY CNC Mill conversion, so I decided to record the whole process including the installation of probe_basic.

It's split into two sections; the first, captured on Windows 10, where I download the linuxcnc 2.8.2 ISO and create a bootable USB flash drive, and the second where I captured the HDMI output of the Intel NUC DCCP847DYE as I installed LinuxCNC 2.8.2 and then installed probe_basic.

As I mentioned in my video, I'm converting a Precision Matthews PM-833TV mill to CNC using inspiration from Dr. D-Flo's project ([ Ссылка ] [ Ссылка ] )

Thanks to Small Shop Concepts ( [ Ссылка ] ) for the clarification about the creators of qtpyvcp and the Probe Basic interface. Please see the pinned comment for specifics. I put a card to their channel at the appropriate point in the video as well.

NOTE: This install should work for 2.8.4 version of Linux CNC as well HOWEVER there are definitely some Python2 vs Python3 issues with the versions being used. I'll be making a new video soon on installing a more up to date version of everything with Python 3 only. In the meantime, you can check out this thread on the LinuxCNC Forum [ [ Ссылка ] ] for more details.

Joco-NZ created a script that that will install linuxcnc, qtpyvcp and probe_basic from a clean install of Debian 11 (bullseye). It's available on his github [ [ Ссылка ] ]. Thanks to rodw from the linuxcnc forum for posting that script in a comment!
