ScottW514 cf24bf3200 gfhome: capture through forgectrl; factory-board machine config
The runner's Machine subclass fetches lid/head images from the
forgectrl snapshot endpoint - forgectrl owns the imx-media pipeline
whenever a stream client (LightBurn) is connected, so direct V4L2
grabs fail busy. Head captures request lamp=0 (the cloud's focus
analysis needs torch-off images); the HCil measure-laser LED is still
driven directly. Direct capture remains the fallback when the daemon
is unreachable.

The sample config gains the factory-board settings: the estop motion
gate stays off (the board's estop sense reads low during any motion),
and the forgectrl URL is configurable.

OpenGlow/ForgeFIRM Firmware for Glowforge

This repository contains opensource firmware for Glowforge brand CNC lasers.

Roadmap

  • Base image that supports all Glowforge hardware (complete)
  • Support Glowforge web service - Python implementation (mostly complete)
  • REST API w/ G-Code support (in progress) Stalled
  • Browser-based GUI (pending) Stalled

This project is for experimental purposes only, and is not supported or endorsed by Glowforge.
