Found out why it delays when switching on.
The stepper driver (HBS57) is disabled by a 3.5V signal to the ENA+/- ports.
When you enable the driver by pulling the voltage signal (directly or via the pulse gen PCB), apparently it takes a bit of time for the driver to react.
This also happens when using a different 5V powersupply.

It does react instantly when you re-apply the 3.5V to the ENA+- ports, instantly stopping the motion.

If I can invert the ENA (Enabled) signal in the driver software, I can switch the opposite by relay to apply a voltage to enable the driver instead of disabling it. But I could get an issue stopping the driver in time if I do that.

I have to figure out how to connect to the driver, never done that before.
 

Chaka!
Today I tested the new i7 Tiny PC Lenovo m910q with previously shown pings and latency, and the machine seems to work fine. Ok, I just made an air milling over 10 minutes, but the whole code went through without motor-position errors. I tried full G0 with 7,5m/min and normal milling feeds with 3,5m/min, no errors anymore.
BTW- WLAN connection was active during the process, without activity, but former constellations had bad influence on ping and latency.
I hope, this is my final post regarding latency and pings. I learned a lot about settings.

Big Thank you to all of you for sharing your knowledge and for helpful comments!
Happy greetings, Hanno

I see that I've updated the information related to the AX5800 card. Now I have some questions:
I see that I created some enable pins. I assume they are to enable the output of each of the step generators. In the XML file for LINUXCNC, these pins appear as BIT, but I don't know how to configure them correctly in the EEPROM generator file. Bit variables don't appear there. In that same file it appears
<pdoEntry idx="6001" subIdx="01" bitLen="32" halPin="Frequency" halType="float-ieee"/>
</pdo>
<pdo idx="1a01">
<pdoEntry idx="6001" subIdx="01" bitLen="8" halPin="DI1" halType="u32"/>
<pdoEntry idx="6001" subIdx="02" bitLen="8" halPin="DI2" halType="u32"/>
<pdoEntry idx="6001" subIdx="03" bitLen="8" halPin="DI3" halType="u32"/>
<pdoEntry idx="6001" subIdx="04" bitLen="8" halPin="DI4" halType="u32"/>

It's not clear to me what function those DI pins have and how they are programmed in the EEPROM generator.

So basically if you select piercing only
1-Make  piercing. 
2- Ask the operator to clean dross.
3 - Ask the operators to change consumables (if the case).
4 - Start cutting with 0 piercing delay.

I use a separate material config for piercing and switch to normal when cutting.
Going a bit further, one could have automatic shift to a piercing-only material config when doing piercing only.
And shift back afterwards.

I'm not good at typical programming languages. I'm best at G-code.

Here, G4 has to be because after reaching the pocket, the READY pin is active so the toolchange procedure runs without moving the engine

Yes, I know that ATC is not a priority, but I'm asking in advance (I'll eventually write ATC on CL .. I think that thanks to the knowledge I've gained from trying to start CAROUSEL, I'll manage, and if not, I'll treat it as an axis and use g-code)

This machine is a challenge because:
I've never used a tool magazine
I've never done anything on servos
I didn't have a Mesa card either
and here it will be all

As you have it it is way to long so it limits the max velocity a lot and can cause joint errors, depending on the scale and velocity set in the ini file.

need this???
#150000
DIRSETUP = 150000
DIRHOLD = 150000

same of the conf with:
#DIRSETUP = 150000
#DIRHOLD = 150000
#STEPLEN = 5000
#STEPSPACE = 5000

Indeed if you set acceleration to 200, the scurve max acceleration will be 400 at inflection point.
Exceeding your max acc off 240.

I will try this, note that this is a difference from LinuxCNCs standard TP where the
acceleration bound in the ini file is obeyed at all points.
(unless you have backlash compensation enabled)

STEPLEN = 150000

From the "machine" menu, choose "homing" then the axis you want to home.

Yes i have, but not a default config, it is for NV something or another.
Do you get the dropped connection?
Do you get joint errors?
 

No the connection is stable( joint error only 3 video Youtube+stresstest+rustdesk remote desktop) but i have bad stepper movement.
Try to put:
[JOINT_1]
DIRSETUP   = 150000
DIRHOLD    = 150000
STEPLEN    = 150000
STEPSPACE  = 150000

 and

[STEPGEN]
#150000
DIRSETUP   = 150000
DIRHOLD    = 150000
STEPLEN    = 150000
STEPSPACE  = 150000

and
[STEPGEN]
#150000
STEPGEN_DIRSETUP   = 150000
STEPGEN_DIRHOLD    = 150000
STEPGEN_STEPLEN    = 150000
STEPGEN_STEPSPACE  = 150000

and 

[STEPGEN]

STEPGEN_1_DIRHOLD    = 150000
STEPGEN_1_STEPLEN    = 150000
STEPGEN_1_STEPSPACE  = 150000

my driver is a  TB6560 (only for testing not final hardware)
all conf not change the movement



the work is linuxcnc classic engrave test

Nice clean up.

Problem 1: gelöst

Wie hast du das Problem gelöst?
Ich habe den gleichen Fehler.

Eugenius.

Yes, set the same home sequence for both in the ini file.

please post your ini file.
