The EdytorNC project now consists of four applications that can be useful for programming and operating CNC machine tools. EditorNC is a specialised text editor for CNC programmers. FTPserver is a simple FTP server for transferring cnc programs to and from the machine. SerialPortFileServer is a simple server for transferring cnc programmes to and from the machine via RS232 ports. ProgramManager is a program that makes it easy to search for cnc programs based on, for example, part number, part name contained in the first three comments in the cnc program. Some EdytorNC features : bolt holes calculation; solutions of triangles calculation; speed, feed calculation; conversion inch/mm, mm/inch; code colouring; RS232 data transmission with automatic file saving and possibility to download new CNC program directly from machine (beta function, look in tool tips in serial port configuration dialog). Clipboard to keep texts from system clipboard.

Easy CNC
Modular CNC software for Arduino controller
The goal of the project is the realization of a modular firmware that allows to control a CNC machine with different utensils. For instance, a CNC with a drill, with few changes can become a plotter with a pen or cutting machine to cut cardboard or stickers. In order to do that, we want project a CNC router with a mechanism that allows a fast utensil change and a controlling firmware which can use different utensils changing some configuration parameters. -

Rise and Shine LED Clock
Arduino Powered 60 RBG Pixel Clock, with 24h alarm and count down.
The Rise and Shine LED clock has been designed to educate and encourage hacking and modifying of both software and hardware. This is a analogue style digital clock with multiple display states, a 24 hour alarm, a count down alarm, multiple alarm display states and a demo mode. One of the alarm states is a dawn simulating alarm, where the lights gradually come on over 20 minutes, enducing a natural waking sleeping pattern, with out the shock of a abrupt noisy alarm sound. Hence the name "Rise and Shine", although the name also works well with the educational objectives. -

simutron
AVR simulator IDE
Electronic circuit simulator. Simple environment to run and debug firmware for AVR 8-bit microprocessors. Able to run arduino firmware. Internally this program uses the open source Simavr AVR Processor Simulator (https://github.com/buserror/simavr) and wraps all its functions in a GUI shell. Setups for firmware debugging scenarios can be created dynamically. Able to run 16MHz MCU with decent set of external parts in real time. In particular this can be used for development of CNC firmware in conjuction with its CAM frontend without access to the real hardware. For Linux and Windows systems. Please visit wiki pages (https://sourceforge.net/p/simutron/wiki/Home/) for instructions -
