Hi guys,
added the module EL1819 to the standard configuration, greetings Chimeno

Hello.
Please, give me an advice.
He copied the files for EL1819 to "/ git / linuxcnc-ethercat / src" and still writes to me:
lcec_conf: ERROR: Invalid slave type EL1819
lcec_conf: ERROR: Parse Error at Line 5: Parsing Aborted
./CNC_Router_YYXZ.hal:11: waitpid failed lcec_conf lcec_conf
./CNC_Router_YYXZ.hal:11: lcec_conf exited without getting ready

EL2809 works correctly.
What am I doing wrong?

Second query: EL1819 is no longer in the later "lcec_conf.c". Why?

Thank you very much.

Hi all,
I am trying to add an additional EtherCAT card EL4004.
I have generated the lcec_el4004.c files and lcec_el40x4.c and put them into the linuxcnc-ethercat/src directory.
After modifying the Kbuild, lcec_conf.h, lcec_conf.c, lcec_main.c accordingly
I have managed to recompile:

cd linuxcnc-ethercat
sudo make clean
sudo make -j4
cp src/lcec.so ~/linuxnc -dev/rtlib/

Then I am missing the last steps for the update, cannot remember what are the last files that need to be pushed in a specific location. I am not using the run in place linuxcnc but the linuxcnc install and working on the whole system. The EL4004 is still indicated as missing when launching the lcec from linuxcnc .

Thank you for your help,
Nicolas

Hi jirkam
surely you need to add the device in some file, can you pass me the linuxcnc-ethercat folder and I check it?

should be in the archive

Hi Nico2017
I do not understand very well how you are doing, I simply do it this way and it works well.

cd linuxcnc-ethercat
sudo make clean
sudo make -j4
sudo make install

Hi manojpatil
Sorry for my English translator, I'm not in any TWINCAT3 forum, you can pass me the project and have a look.

Attached configuration file of the linuxcnc-ethercat generic driver for your example, if it can help you.

greeting
Chimeno

Hello.
Thank you very much for your interest.
Here are the files. EL1819
I will be grateful.
And I still have to put the EL3064 into operation. :-(

Thanks

Hi Chimeno,
thanks for the reminder.

Anyone experiencing with a generic slave some issues while stopping linuxcnc? The test I am doing stays stopped at

EtherCAT 0: Stopping EoE thread

, when I do sudo dmesg for a couple of minutes. Then it shows me a

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at

and I have to reboot to be able to run linuxcnc again.

Thank you,
Nicolas

PS: edit, I solved it.
I was actually using a relatively dated EtherCAT master version. At that time I used the ec-debianize install and ended up with a version dated from 17 03 2018. Redoing it lately I ended up with a version from 04 09 2019. As shown on hg.code.sf.net/p/etherlabmaster/code there has been few updates possibly correcting issues was the EoE deactivation step between those two dates. On the hardware point of view, I also made sure that all my Ethernet cables were with shielded ends and verified the grounding for all components (computer + slaves).

Hi Jirkam
you need to edit the Kbuild file for device compilation I attached it modified and compiled, it works fine.

Hi Chimero
Thank you very much.
I did compile (compile.txt) and I probably did something wrong. (linuxcnc.txt)
But before "sudo make install" linuxcnc started (EL1819.png) but did not respond to input. I don't even know if I tested it correctly.
I connected 24V and input. Is it right? I don't trust myself anymore.
Can you advise me?
Must be a PC restart?
Thanks a lot . Jirka
