linuxcnc-esp32 Software Stepping over Ethernet Using ESP32

You could leave us your ini file and hal file because I'm having errors because you removed the maxvel, maxacc and put the accel.

Hi eng, maxvel is not required, it was a remnant of an older code when I tried position tracking mode.
accel = maxacc.
The code is currently running in speed mode, with this acceleration following the speed command. I just renamed it, in fact the code only works with one kind of acceleration.

I'm sorry, but I also renamed the io pins in udp.comp:
udp.in.xx
udp.out.xx

ps.
In the code I took advantage of the following features of esp32:

four hardware timers up to 25 ns / tic -> step generation for 3 (4) axes

two cores: one deals only with step generation, the other with everything else

FPU -> fast floating point calculation

High cpu speed (240Mhz)

I think it's worth implementing the code on another microcontroller if it has these capabilities. You may want to take advantage of other capabilities that aren't in ep32.

What would be required to increase the pulse rate to 100KHz for 3 axis ?
Is it a hardware limitation of the esp32?
Cheers.

Hey jzolee, Thanks for the work my w5500 and esp32 both came in but in not sure how to implement your .comp and UDP files above. does the UDP.comp get loaded on the esp32 and the HAL2UDP on the linux pc? Thanks for the info

Couple multiple ESP32 be used to allow faster step rates?
e.g. 1 per axis?

this would be a big problem because I would have to have 1 master to receive the UDP and separate it for the other slaves, so I believe that this would cause a high latency and not bring good results!
