Replied by rodw on topic Config will not open after Buildbot2 upgade from 2.9.4 to 2.10

Config will not open after Buildbot2 upgade from 2.9.4 to 2.10

Category: Plasmac

For the third time with some more detail. To replicate
1. Install Linuxcnc 2.9.4 (rip should be fine but I used the ISO)
2. Install the Qtplasmac sim to the config folder
3. Open the sim to confirm its working
4. Close the sim
5. Install Linuxcnc 2.10 or run from another RIP folder
6. Open linuxcnc 2.10
7. Open the previously installed sim.
8. Upgrade message should be displayed
9. Repeat 6,7 The upgrade message will be displayed again and Linuxcnc exits without error message. 

I just wanted to test an upgrade from the 2.9.4 ISO to use 2.10 before asking a customer to upgrade his working system. I now know the workarounds but I don't think the bug will bite on a live system

FYI, I have just posted an upgrade script to go from 2.9.4 to 2.10 in the Installing Linuxcnc section that shows what I want to achieve. Becasue Linuxcnc does not maintain a buildbot on Linuxcnc.org, some changes to  the apt folders are required to point to the buildbot2 repo. We follow the Debian standards for APT in the ISO so there is some data in subfolders that needs removing.

Category: Configuration Tools

Happy like a kid started tweaking with Mesa:
1. connected, powered and check if visible - all ok
2. mesaflashed used to write bin file from PCW - all seems ok, i can sie PWM instead of stepgens (screen shot attached)
3. installed MesaCT 2.1.7
4. built config as in attached screenshots (grrr how to paste photos into the text here???)
5. run LinuxCNC and crash as per screen shot:(

Yes, there are over 20 messages saying it upgraded but not one message saying it got an error and failed during that upgrade attempt.

That's because it didn't fail, at least not in the eyes of the try/except handler.

You can see I tried several times tying to get to the bottom of it, each generating a message.

The issue is that on two different PC's, the upgrade to a sim install failed without reporting an error which left me in the dark.

I don't know what you mean by "the upgrade to a sim install". Could you please elaborate?

You seem unwilling to actually test such an upgrade process and instead want to blame my installation.

I wouldn't say I am unwilling, even in the absence of steb-by-step directions from you as to how to reproduce what it is you are experiencing, I took my own steps to try to duplicate your issue:

I removed the package version I had installed, added the secret buildbot, and installed master for bookworm. I then launched linuxcnc by typing linuxcnc in the terminal. Navigated to Sample Configurations > sim > qtplasmac > qtplasmac_l_metric, and clicked OK. It worked fine with no update messages. I repeated for a RIP installation, it worked fine with no update messages.

The thing is that this issue has been solved by the aforementioned commits, and a sim config never needs to be updated, as it has the necessary changes. So it leads me to the conclusion that something went wrong in the process of going from 2.9.4 to 2.10.

Are you copying the config and trying to make a usable machine out of it? Or are you trying to actually simulate your machine?

If it's the latter, there's a way to simulate your actual table.

You may need to invert the signal with the not component. I know I had to.

Script to update 2.9.x ISO to use Linuxcnc Version 2.10 (master branch) was created by rodw

Script to update 2.9.x ISO to use Linuxcnc Version 2.10 (master branch)

Category: Installing LinuxCNC

This script installs linuxcnc master branch (2.10) after you have installed the ISO on the downloads page.Hakan has tested and refined this further down this thread so I have updated the script here.


You may want to move to version 2.10 to get the latest QtPlasmac for example as the version in 2.9.4 is no longer maintained.
\Instructions:
1. Download  attached script
2. Delete the .txt.extension3. Check permisssions are executible (Right click, Properties and check Permissions tab)
4. Run the script from the folder it is downloaded to: sudo ./update-master.sh

The script deletes and modifies some files in the /etc/apt folder and sub-folders.  It does make a copy of the /etc/apt folder into your home folderI tried on one PC and it worked. On another PC it didn't. If it fails, open the file and run each line individually
after the apt upgrade is complete, running linuxcnc should show version 2.10 on startup in the console and the splash screen.
To update down the track
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Red LED comes on for a very short period when powered on.
EDITED
To late, but just watched the video, so, i would have not removed the OK looking chip at all, it sure looks like something back powered one of the outputs on that chip as you mention on the video.

e-stop signal from hybrid servo stepper threw Mesa 7i96s

Category: Driver Boards

Does the drive have a fault output?
Is that fault output wired to Mesa input?
Is the Mesa input pin wired to joint.0.amp-fault in hal?
Those are the things required for a fault to stop the machine, it will not trigger e-stop but it will disable the machine completely, so after fixing whatever the issue was, you can just enable the machine and continue working.

Category: EtherCAT

Hello,

if your config with profibus needs a sync movements... It is necessary to use a Equidistant mode... if not it should be in the free run -

DC sync in your case 1C32 parameter is -
 “03 00 03 00 40 42 0F 00 00 00 00 00 00”
- 40 42 0f 00 == 1ms but it is too short and I can guarantee timing incidents ..

Free run in your case 1C32 parameter is - 
 “03 00 01 00 40 42 0F 00 00 00 00 00 00”
 - 40 42 0f 00 == 1ms but real synchronization it based on scan time of profibus

then you configuration is missing the SDOs -

it will be right behind the "complete" mapping guys but in front off sync managers ... 
How can I understand this?

Your config is missing of the DC configuration adn SDO datas cofig too

What have I forgotten?

If you will choose the DC operation mode - somewhere in the slave config it has to be a DC configuration of the slave - something like

Black Friday Deal got me :)

Category: Plasma & Laser

my first attempt at a rotary union ended up being a bust. i was going to just eat the cost and buy these but something the manufacture said during a response made me pause on that idea. i was told a 2 Kw motor was the requirements to drive one of theirs. my plan was to drive two of these in series so a 4 Kw motor to do this seemed like a deal breaker. so i decided to take another attempt at one. i got tired of looking for a sealing solution from the manufactures that would work with common stock size and trying to find a certain type of seal in the size i needed. So i did what i had to and took matters into my own hands and designed my own and made a mold to cast them myself. so i will either get thing to work or go down swinging trying :)

Picture, capabilities access denied, that is usually due to not using sudo, so
sudo lspci -v
see if it shows the driver and kernel module.
Always use sudo when dealing with kernel level stuff, for reading only.

e-stop signal from hybrid servo stepper threw Mesa 7i96s was created by kmeld

e-stop signal from hybrid servo stepper threw Mesa 7i96s

Category: Driver Boards

Hi,
I do not actually know where to start.

I have 3axis cnc mill set up on Mesa 7i96s with hybrid servo stepper drives 2HSS86H-N

currently when stepper drive goes in to error (position following error) motor stops and is not responding but while cnc control does not go in to e-stop mode.

I would like to have it set up in such a way so in such event as one of the controllers goes in to any fault it will automatically trigger e-stop for the whole control.

Could someone help me set this up?
I need help on very basic level in this field.

Cris.

Hi

a. Please guide as how this can be done. Do we need a separate bit file for this. If yes, please share.
-Note that this will only work on stock 7i95t firmware or 7i95t_5abob firmware
-if you disable the stepgens on DB25 pins 4,5 and on.

b. Also how can I generate pwmgen on Pin 1 of the DB25 BoB with 7i95t. Please share instructions / commands.

Z-Achse fährt Werkstücknullpunkt nicht an was created by Roger S

Z-Achse fährt Werkstücknullpunkt nicht an

Category: Deutsch

Hallo zusammen

Als absoluter Linux-Anfänger habe ich mir vor ca. 5-6 Jahren mithilfe dieses Forums sowie YouTube-Beiträgen meine erste Konfiguration aufgesetzt und zum Laufen gebracht. Als Screen hatte ich Probe Basic gewählt. Nun habe ich den PC ersetzt, Debian 12 und darauf Linuxcnc 2.9.4 installiert. Als Screen verwende ich wieder Probe Basic. Es funktioniert soweit alles korrekt, bis auf einen Punkt. Nach dem Nullen fährt die Z-Achse nicht auf ihre Nullposition.

 
Die Maschine ist referenziert und steht auf der Parkposition 

 
Danach fahre ich das Werkstück an und nulle alle Achsen

 
Wenn ich dann mit "Go to Zero" die vorher gesetzten Nullpunkte anfahren will, bleibt die z-Achse oben stehen.

Was habe ich übersehen?

MfG Roger
