At one of photos attached at first posting it is 2.7.0 i suppose.

RE:-
MAX_ACCELERATION = 0.3
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 0.3
I believe the STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 0.3 needs to be 25% more than the MAX_ACCELERATION. on each axis

If you have backlash compensation enabled
you must set the stepgen maxaccel value to double
the axis maxacceleration value

Seems have done the job putting those higher!!

Initial speed/acceleration values of machine were really slow. Had tuned those higher past days and then also modified the stepper motor driver values!

Much thanks - would never have figured that one out!



 

Hello everyone,

I have a strange problem with LinuxCNC on a machine that has been configured for a long time and was working perfectly.

Until a few days ago, everything was working fine. Then I modified my Python Touchy GUI file (adding dynamic multi-language translation using `set_label` on some buttons), and from that moment the problem appeared:

> "joint 0 following error" immediately after clicking "Start".

The problem still remains even if I completely delete all the translation modifications (`LABELS` and `on_combo_language_changed`);


Code I had added:
