My motherboard is very old and doesn't support UEFI. Maybe I should use one that will support it.

Try enabling UEFI in BIOS.

You have setup your machine as a left handed coordinate system instead of the standard right handed system:
 


Some people get confused by the machine Y only moving in the negative direction from home but that is irrelevant since the actual work is going to be referenced to a work coordinate system (ie G54 ... G59) which can be setup anywhere.
 

Actually, i can't get fusions axis to match my machine, if i change the direction of Y (which is the issue right now, either x or Z will also flip)

I had to use Claude to help me write the post since i'm new at this so please excuse me, I'm attaching my .ini and .hal files, thanks in advance!!:    Diagnosis: With corrected Fusion360 machine definition (Z up, X right, Y forward), linear motion executes correctly. However, G2 (clockwise) and G3 (counter-clockwise) commands execute in opposite directions.Tested: Triangle draws correctly. Circle with G3 (counter-clockwise) draws clockwise.Question: Is there a XYYZ kinematics setting or HAL configuration that controls arc direction in LinuxCNC?I'm also atteching a picture of my machine:

 

Hello dear,
mokutil --sb-state says that EFI variables are not supported on this system. And it doesnt want to install linuxcnc-ethercat. The same dpkg error is shown. I do not know what to do...

Hi All,

Have you been using E-CAM for mill or lathe?

@deltafox24
A gcode example would help us test things.

@cmorley I guess he means a preview of rotray tool paths like this:

 


 

I don't think we understand exactly what you are expecting.
Are you talking about have a rotary table as A sitting on top of the mill?

Mach bitte ein Bild von der Karte. Die Chinesen haben Verschiedene. Sie haben auch verschiedene Baidu Links. Welchen hast du bekommen?
Ich habe die Dateien damals mit dem Baidu Downloader oder so heruntergeladen. Weiß leider nicht mehr, ob es eine Website war, oder ob ich ein Programm dazu installieren musste, aber es hat ohne Account funktioniert.

Letzte Woche habe ich meine mit dem Multimeter vermessen und die Pinzuordnung für Xilinx ISE gemacht. Konnte erfolgreich Bitfiles für meine machen. Ich kann eine Anleitung schreiben, was man machen muss. Du musst dich dazu bei AMD registrieren und Xilinx ISE herunterladen. Die Registrierung hat bei mir erst nach mehreren Versuchen geklappt. Einfach immer wieder abschicken, bis es funktioniert.

Ganz wichtig: NICHT versuchen Original Bitfiles für 7i98 zu flashen!!! Deine Karte läuft vermutlich mit modifizierter 7i92 Firmware, die eine andere Belegung zwischen dem FPGA und dem Netzwerkchip hat, daher wird die Karte anschließend nicht ansprechbar sein und kann nur noch über JTAG wiederbelebt werden. Wenn du soweit bist, testen wir das Flashen zusammen, so dass du nix falsch machst.

I'm not in the UK but I ship to the UK and have both the 7i96 and 7i96S in stock. Shipping from the USA to the UK via the USPS is the most cost effective way.

I would suggest commenting out the offending line till you can get LinuxCNC to load. Then check what pins mb2hal created. I question whether mb2hal actually creates mb2hal.spindle-set-speed, usually I see pins something like mb2hal.0.1 where the first number is the transaction number and the second is the element number.

Or am I missing something? Is there a method to have mb2hal create labeled pins?

Not aware of any Mesa suppliers in UK, but these i used a lot:
Portugal: www.eusurplus.com
Germany: www.welectron.com

Not all drives are cia402 compatible. Yours probably isn't.
you need to share more info eg.
ethercat pdos > pdos.txt 
ethercat sdos > sdos.txt
and also try using lcec_configgen > configgen.xml (but there are some optional command line switches) It may create your XML for you.

Thanks for sharing! This is great stuff. My mill is from the same time period, so same problems as yours I guess. It's a 1989 Maho MH600E.

One thing though, would you mind sharing your actual config files? That whould be the absolute best way to help us others who are also trying to wotk out how to make this work. And since my machine have much the same issues as yours I'm hoping to be able to have a closer look at a config file which is actually working, and have solved this problem.

Thanks for sharing! I hope you see this and are willing to share your config files too!

Cheers
