General Questions about using ethercat

Category: EtherCAT

halshow value for cia402.0.csp-mode is true, but the drive parameters (value of modes-of-operation/cia402.0.opmode/lcec.0.x.opmode) is 0.

in the XML file there is
<pdoEntry idx="6060" subIdx="00" bitLen="8" halPin="opmode" halType="S32"/>

in the HAL file there is:

setp cia402.0.csp-mode 1
...
net x-modes-of-operation cia402.0.opmode => lcec.0.X.opmode
...

The drive wants parameter 6060 to be 8 for CSP mode. How do I correct that?

Problems switching PDO assignments (EP5101-0011)

Category: EtherCAT

Hello endian

I'm sorry for answering a little bit late, i was busy studying for my upcoming exams. I hope you are doing well and everything is good after the storm you mentioned?

I tried the config from the 23rd and had syntax issues with the InitCMD section. As far as i can tell, you removed it in the version you updated on the 25th. Without the InitCMDs, the encoder inputs indeed change over to their 32bit counter PDO, unfortunately they get stuck in a PREOP error state.
While starting the machine, it also threw error about the "<pdoEntry idx="0" bitLen="4" halPin="Control--194" halType="s32">" part, i just removed that part, because it's not used (gap), according to Beckhoffs docs.

Do you know a solution to the "Slave does not support changing the PDO mapping!" problem, when the slave supports it for sure?
And thank you for your help so far

Problems switching PDO assignments (EP5101-0011)

Category: EtherCAT

Hello all

i'm trying to implement a Beckhoff EP5101-0011 incremental encoder input into LinuxCNC with its 32bit counter. I need to read glass scale inputs with around 520 mm in length and a resolution of 1 µm. For that i need atleast 19 bit, and its standard PDO assignment with the "compact" 16bit encoder-value doesn't cut it.

I can easily change the PDO assignment in the EtherCAT-Configurator application and the EP5101 activates the 32bit counter, after reconnecting the LinuxCNC machine it is also able to use the bigger counter, but after power cycling the device, it defaults back to the 16bit counter. So i tried to set the correct PDO assignments via SDO uploads, but that did also not work, it doesn't want to change in the "big counter mode" via LinuxCNC.

It also complained about the other SDO uploads (settings), but that's a problem for later.
What exactly do i have to change, to initialize the encoder input to its 32bit PDO setting?

Thank you in advance for your help

well I reRan lcec_configgen and got a different reading on slave IDX 2 not sure why. I was able to fart around with the XML and get the servo going. it about jumped off my bench. she's a ripper.

working XML snippet for the Ebay servo/ DVS P200SE drive.

Im trying to get my 2.6kw spindle servo going. its got a P200SE drive. the instructions are written in Chinese. I used google translate and it worked pretty good. Right now im running it as a Z axis just to see if i can get it working. I got my XML setup enough that Linuxcnc reads the encoder no problem. the servo powers up and holds position along with my stepperonline X and y servos. my current roadblock is that its not listening to commands and doesnt move and it gets a following error shortly after. if i power off and turn the motor the DRO moves the distance expected so that's a good sign. the servo load meter on the PYvcp is workign for this servo too, when i "fight" the servo. i must just be missing something simple in my XML?

lcec_configgen gives me this

You add a new pdoentry for 606C to the 1A00 PDO in your ethercat-conf.xml file. In this entry idx, subidx, bitlen, is from the A6 manual, you chose a name for "halPin".
Inside you hal file you can then use that name. E.g. like lcec.0.X.yourname
In this example 0 is your first ethercat interface, X is the name of your slave. See "halshow" -> Pins ...

Hi everyone,
I bought this device: SG-ELC-ADIO-DI16-DO16-PNP.
I wrote a custom XML file for it, but for some reason, after I load it, there's a 90% chance that EtherCAT crashes with an error.
I suspect that it might be slowing down the entire system, or maybe I wrote the XML incorrectly.Here’s what I wrote:

heres my working XML snippet

Warning: Spoiler!

question is, why doesnt it work anymore if i switch from <pdo idx="1600"> to <pdo idx="1701"> for example. why is it using 1600 and 1A00 and working even though "ethercat pdos" spits out 1701 and 1Bo1? I want to use something other than 1600/1A00 because they only have a few PDOs available on my servos. they are "variable PDO" according to the manual. Just trying to understand how this all works.

Experimental XML config generator

Category: EtherCAT

Thanks for the help everyone. I decided to move my project to a Raspberry Pi 4, so I made sure to use the latest versions of LinuxCNC and Ethercat. I think I have the experimental XML config working now. I am a little unsure what to do with the output file.

I'll paste two files below. The first file is the ethercat-conf.xml from my CNC project when I had a single axis using an Rtelligent ECT 60 stepper motor.The single axis worked, so I have since bought two Rtelligent RS750E AC Servo drives. All I have done with the RS750E drives is power them up and connect the Ethernet. I haven't done any onboard parameter programming yet.

The experimental XML config generator recognized all three drives in order.

Is the output from the experimental XML config generator meant to be used to create the ethercat-conf.xml file?

ethercat-conf.xml pdoentry limits?

Category: EtherCAT

The PDO entries of the EtherCAT master are 128 in number. Any error will occur if the number exceeds this limit. For the same type of enumerated points, you can use the abbreviated form for writing. For example：<pdoEntry idx="6000" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-in" halType="bit"/> Here, an input point with a sub-index ranging from 1 to 32 is declared.

When I was testing this signal input, I found that when I turned on LED0, the corresponding IO PIN was lit up at pin number 16. Similarly, the output position was also the same. In summary, the data I currently receive has been shifted by 16 bits. Additionally, I have attached my XML and the test results from Beckhoff (they are all OK). Could someone kind-hearted please tell me why?

Can you share whole config to better understanding please? I am interested in the two masters from your configuration ... how and if it is working? thank you

but defenetely you can not let 32bit lenght for halType="bit" I think ...

<pdoEntry idx="6000" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-in" halType="bit"/>

Check actual config over, then you will can read active configuration from online slaves... then just copy paste

Can you please confirm that you do not see the 16-bit shift in Codesys.

Can you also please confirm that you see/don't see the 16-bit shift in linuxcnc using <complexentry>

Please show the output when you in linuxcnc enter test-values for the bit-outs pins. Do all 32 pins individually.

Change the line <pdoEntry idx="7010" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-out" halType="bit"/> to <pdoEntry idx="7010" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-out" halType="u32"/> and redo the bit output test. Do one bit at the time. All 1,2,4,8,16, 32, 64,128, and so on up to the 31th bit.

Show the input and output for all these tests in a way that one clearly can see and correlate the linuxcnc input and the drive output.

Can you please show the output of "ethercat -p 1 -m 1 pdos" Modify the p and m field values as needed to get the output from the tested unit.

Can you please provide a screenshot from Codesys of the definition of the output variable. To include at least pdo index, pdo entry index, subindex, datatype and datatype length.

I don't know why, but we can try to find out why.

Can you replace the lines that creates all the input pins and out pins

<pdoEntry idx="6000" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-in" halType="bit"/>
...
<pdoEntry idx="7010" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="bit-out" halType="bit"/>

with "complexentry", there are several examples above in the file.
Do you still get the shift?
