T3D-L20A-RABF configuration help

Category: Turning

Ok,

in that case I would try setting the outputs in HAL Show and verify it with a multimeter.
If that does not work, you probably know what signal does not work, it is unlikely that everything does not work, and you said that the drive enables.
If it works but over the normal GUI it does not, I am out of ideas as well.

Building from source for Trixie

Category: Installing LinuxCNC

I've built linuxcnc from source many times, but since upgrading to trixie, it no longer works. I'm following the instructions at  Building LinuxCNC . I don't think they are entirely correct. In section 4.2 (Building Debian Packages) it says the following:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
$ git clone https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-source-dir
$ cd linuxcnc-source-dir/src
$ ./debian/configure
$ sudo apt-get build-dep .
$ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck dpkg-buildpackage -uc -B
The result of ./debian/configure is bash: ./debian/configure: No such file or directory
If I don't cd into src, like it says in the previous step, then configure works.
The result of sudo apt-get build-dep . is Error: Unsupported file . given on commandline
The result without the . is Error: Unable to locate package build-dep
If I just go ahead anyway and run the last line, it seems to compile but ends with:
dh_auto_build: error: cd src && make -j4 build-software returned exit code 2
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:57: override_dh_auto_build-arch] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/jim/linuxcnc-dev'
make: *** [debian/rules:45: build-arch] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-arch subprocess returned exit status 2

Since it appears buildbot is not building debs for trixie, my only option is to build from source. What is the correct procedure for building deb files for trixie? Thanks,
Jim

Configure Mesa 7i96s and pktuart with Omron MX2 (wj200)

Category: Advanced Configuration

Hey PCW,
thank you. I updated LCNC from 2.9.4 to 2.9.8 to use mesambccc.
I saw some comment of your gs10 vdf and tried to edit this.
I created a mbccs file only with "run" and "heatsink-temperature" to test
<mesamodbus baudrate="9600" parity="N" interval="1000" stopbits="2">
 <devices>
  <device name="wj200" address="0x01"/>
 </devices>
 <initlist> 
   <command device="wj200" address="0x0001" function="W_REGISTER">
     <description> Zero Operation</description>
     <data value="0"/>
  </command> 
   <command device="wj200" address="0x0001" function="W_REGISTER">
     <description>Zero Frequency</description>
     <data value="0"/>
  </command>   
 </initlist>
 <commands>
   <command device="wj200" address="0x0001" function="W_REGISTERS" name="run" haltype="HAL_BIT"   modbustype="U_AB" count="1"/>
   <command device="wj200" address="0x1019" function="R_REGISTERS" name="heatsink-temp" haltype="HAL_FLOAT" modbustype="U_AB" count="1"/>
 </commands>
</mesamodbus>
My first question:
in my Omron_MX2.mbccs file. there is some device name.
<device name="wj200" address="0x01"/>
I tried to use a different name like "OmronMX2" but it seems, only gs10 or wj200 should work.
Omron_MX2.mbccs: error: Device name 'OmronMX2' not found in devices list initlist/command[1]
Is there any kind of driver list to choose from ?

I looked into your .hal and added:
loadrt hm2_modbus ports=hm2_7i96s.0.pktuart.0 mbccbs="Omron_MX2.mbccb"

addf hm2_7i96s.0.read servo-thread
addf hm2_modbus.0.process servo-thread
addf hm2_7i96s.0.write servo-thread

But Received the following Error: LCNC_Error.png
I can´t find any other addf hm2_7i962.0.read in my .hal file. So I don´t understand these Error message.
Any Idea ?

OK I figured it out almost
The analog pins are PWMs
But if i put this into my HAL:
setp hm2_[MESA](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.dither true
setp hm2_[MESA](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.output-type 1 #PWM pin0
setp hm2_[MESA](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.offset-mode 1 # offset mode so 50% = 0
setp hm2_[MESA](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.scale 10
setp hm2_[MESA](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.value 1.0
I get 4.2 volt
Why? I have just double-checked 10/1 = 1

Using the index as home in hal is not what I meant, LinuxCNC does support homing to index:

linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-homing.html#_configuration

See homing type = index only

Thank you for your response.

I forgot to mention that before installing it on LinuxCNC, I tested it with a potentiometer powered by an external 10V source and a 3-position switch for enable and rev, and it worked fine. The problem arises when I try to connect it to the Bob and LinuxCNC. I'm using the Probe Basic interface, but I've also tried it with Axis and the same thing happens.

7I97 analog outputs are generated from PWM
which requires some setup:


 ---PWM Generator signals/setup---
setp hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.pwm_frequency 75000
setp  hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.00.output-type 1 #PWM pin0
setp  hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.00.offset-mode 1 # offset mode so 50% = 0
setp  hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.00.scale  10
setp hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.00.enable true

setp hm2_7i97.0.pwmgen.00.value 1.0

I don’t know that specific driver, but what I would try is separating the drive from LinuxCNC first.
There is probably a manual mode to turn the drive by using the front panel on the drive itself.
After that, you can set the needed inputs directly (wired to your DC sources) and use a low voltage (AA battery or similar) to give the analog input directly.
Then, if that works but still not in CNC control, you at least know that LinuxCNC is actually the problem.

Missing Tool Cone

you have no tool length to draw the tool stored in your tool table. vtk draws an actual tool to display not a cone. the cone represents a point when no tool is loaded when tool is loaded the stored diameter and length draws the tool. try adding a tool length and you will see the tool.

T3D-L20A-RABF configuration help

Category: Turning

I've been trying for several days to configure the T3D-L20A-RABF servo motor as a spindle in speed mode, but I can't get it to work.

I've set the parameters p004=1, p047 to auto-zero, p050=1 for 0-10V unipolar, and p103=9 to reverse the spindle. I've set p025=0 (default) to use the analog input AS+.

I'm using pin 17 to control the relay and connecting S0 or 0V/GND to the relay.

I'm using pin 16 to reverse the spindle direction.

And pin 1 is for PWM. I've connected AGND and AS+ to the bobbin's 0-10V pin.

The board is powered by 24V, and the servo driver is also powered by 24V.

When I input the command M3 S100, for example, the spindle energizes and has torque, but it doesn't rotate or respond to RPMs.

With my limited knowledge, I don't know what else to try. T_T

but did you try to go to op-enabled without the cia402 component?

 

That echos my thoughts, I considered throwing that idea out there but decided I'm too much of a newby in this ethercat business to be making too much noise here without trying stuff out on hardware first.

My drive and motors are expected to show up today. Not that that makes it a rush to get this figured out. I still need to decide what I'll build with it once it's working.

I've finally managed to configure my 7i97t with the mesaCT.
In order to test my card I tried to put a small voltage on the output pin of the analog 0.
I would have expected to be able to use something like
setp hm2_7i97.0.analogout0 1.0
but it seems that the parameter for the analog drives doesnt exist at all?
My firmware is 7i97_d.bin
Where did i get lost this time?

Hi, 
I am reading all the topics on EtherCAT and CIA402 carefully. Unfortunately, I am not a programmer and cannot contribute much.
But I found this page, maybe it will help?
EtherCAT Slave: CiA 402 example  

Note: would it be possible to incorporate certain safety routines? For example, a watchdog if the servo receives the command for homing but does not start moving.
