When I configured my xml file I used the halrun to load lcec_conf from the command line without the GUI to check it was all okay.

I don't quite understand what I should do
File Attachment:

Can you do "ethercat -v slaves" to grab the model numbers etc just to check they match your XML. After that you will need to catch a more specific error out of the lcec_conf output to narrow down what is wrong.

I think the device name that is displayed in HalShow is missing  

 

I looked at Rod's configuration here , and the device has no name.
maybe with cia.402 it is not needed

That line has to be in the ha; file, not in a terminal.

Guys, tell me how to set up a search for a home position with a torque limitation on mechanical stops as in the video by Marco Reps, onceloved   helped me a lot to get the configuration up and running, but I still have one problem
onceloved , Thank you very much for your help!

Please see my configuration, it starts and can control the motors! But I can't set up the home position detection with torque limitation

Seems you are not actually using the custom homing component 'el8_homecomp.comp'.

[edit]

see this earlier post:
forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/51830-marco-...rcat?start=20#302562

[edit 2]
Note that the commands in the above linked post look wrong to me:
'sudo homecomp --install el8_homecomp.comp'
should actually be:
sudo halcompile --install el8_homecomp.comp

for halcompile you need to install the 'linuxcnc-dev' package.
