After upgrading to Master from 2.7, my mill does not sit at absolute zero. After homing sequence, each axis sits roughly .0003" to .0005" from absolute machine zero. Prior to upgrade, i did not have this issue. I have gone over my INI and HAL file and can not locate an issue.

Picture of the GUI, HAL, and INI file attached.

I have checked for mechanical issues such as backlash. This is not a mechanical issue as stated, this issue was not there before i upgraded to Master. Seems like something in software has changed.

Is your GUI set to display commanded or actual position?
(possibly it is now defaulting to actual rather than commanded)

Is this metric or imperial? If metric this might simply be the encoder limit.

The GUI is showing actual position. The units are imperial "inch".

It may have been showing commanded position before the update?

Three tenths isn't terrible for a mill.

I was using actual position on 2.7 also. It would sometimes dance around .0001". The mill is capable of .0001" but that aside, if that was the case, adjusting backlash should have an effect on the actual position. Adjusting backlash has zero effect on this issue.

Here is a picture of the X Pid active. Maybe you can spot something that i haven't.

I can't remember if anything is different between the PID in 2.8 and 2.7.

Do your PID terms seem familiar?

Did you simply convert the old configs to 2.8, or did you recreate the config?

You could try a bit of I-gain to pull the steady-state error in, but that's not an answer to what might have changed.

I converted via the popup auto convert upon first open of Linuxcnc.

What is the process for getting my config back to 2.7 compatible?
