Im struggling to understand why it works for both of you. I have 2 different machines and a laptop and it works on none of them. All 3 computers running 2.9.3.

You changed nothing but line 24 ?

Hello Hartwig,

I am using the 7i97T exactly for that. But for the automatic toolcanger, wich hast some hydralic pistions, I will need extra I/Os.

-The 7i97T is for the movment of the axis, spindle and encoders.
-The 7i84s is for the control of the toolcanger.

Do you unterstand?

@3404gerber thanks for your all response. Finally I was able to make it working. Added spi_clk_div=32 in remora-spi arguments.
But it was never required earlier. I am using raspberry pi 4b.

Finally, I managed to get these results working as shown in the photos, however there is a problem: if I enable spindle pwm, spindle cw, and amplify enable vm, an error screen appears.

Hello Mbrandt,

why are you not using a 7i97T only? It has the I/O for the control of six seperate axes itself.

Best regards

Hartwig

Do you mind sharing your working configuration?
Im not sure about 60FD

The Home_Sequence was removed on purpose because of the dual y axis (im only trying to get X working atm).

A6_abs_homing is just the cia402 homecomp from collinbardini renamed.

I'll try to make them executable.

I duplicated a set of code that worked in Axis 2.8.1 andi ran on it in 2.9.7.

'test.ngc'

%
G0 X1
o<myfile> call
M05
M30
%

'my file.ngc'

o<myfile> sub
g0 X10
o<myfile> endsub
M2

'%SYMBOLS AT BEGINNING AND END'
Near line 4 of /home/cnc/Desktop/test.ngc:
Failed to find sub 'Omyfile" before EOF

'NO % SYMBOLS'
Near line 4 of /home/cnc/Desltop/test.ngc:
EOF in file:/home/cnc/Desktop/test.ngc seeking o-word: o<myfiles from line: 3

The searched for file is completely different. Not sure what that signifies?

Leon, you hide links again, you get banned.

Hi,
I find your ethercat_2025-12-29.xml interesting.
Could the Z signal from the encoder also be sent via 0x60FD?
The HOME_SEQUENCE is missing in the [JOINT] section of your .ini file.

I can't say whether your HOMEMOD = a6_abs_homing is correct.
I use HOMEMOD = cia402_homecomp.
I'm not familiar with any of the other parameters in [Display] to [EMCIO]; they probably belong to probe_basic.

Hi all,

I’m exploring the idea of integrating a www.jewelerstoolsmall.com/Jewelry-Engraving-Machine-115.html pneumatic jewelry engraver with a CNC setup for fine detail work on rings, pendants, and other small pieces. I know pneumatic tools are great for hand engraving, but I’m wondering if anyone here has experience automating the process using CNC controls.

Is it possible to achieve consistent depth and detail with air-powered gravers under CNC? Any recommendations on machines or controllers that handle this well?

Would love to hear your thoughts or see some sample work if you’ve tried this combo!

Thanks,
Leon

Interested!

Cost?

Hi grandixximo,
Congratulations and big thank you for taking on this long pending task of adding scurve velocity to linuxcnc.
By the mathematics of circular arc blending (used by Rob Ellenberg) in the current linuxcnc planner, there cannot be finite jerk at the transition from a line to a circle or vice-versa. Circular arc blending uses circular arcs to blend the path between two lines or lines and arcs.
To limit jerk at the transition, you need to use a different geometrical primitive than a circular arc.
Grotius has used clothoids and the implementation is available in his clothoid3d library: codeberg.org/skynet/libclothoid3d
Others have used splines. For example opencn uses hermite splines: mecatronyx.gitlab.io/opencnc/opencn/CNC_...tric_Operations.html
Apart from G2/C2 continuity at the junctions, these curves are parameterizable by path length, a property used extensively in the look-ahead optimization.
Once again thank you for taking on this task.
-automata

The curent scurve is architecturally limited to works on segments, and the transitions between segments don't respect scurve limits.
We will see if we can improve blending and look ahead to solve this issue.

That sound's more like a wiring or hal file issue than hardware issue with the 7I96S

You might check than the DIR signals for all axis change when jogging each axis in different directions

I am hoping to find some help on my project.EC300 3.1.3 firmware from scott. NVMPG-StockHal files attachedIt seems to "see" the NVMPG, some of the buttons register but it doesnt seem like they are talking properly.  It'll see some of the button presses but the axis selector on the mpg doesn't change even though it registers the changed on linux cnc.  The pulse wheel doesn't move and the DROs don't update.  Some of the buttons register, some dont.  I installed NVMPG.C from scott as well. Kind of lost on where to go next. hopefully its something stupid and simple.Video:https://youtu.be/3qt5uAIqTMM
