Today I finally got the Beckhoff Ek1100 running under linuxcnc with ethercat :):). It was a steep sloop to go on, but I finally got it . I had a lot of troubles with broken links and such under installation, so it ended up with like 15 reinstalls. and then, like a grenade hit the new image was uploaded and most of the things worked a lot smoother:)btw if any out there knows how to send commands from the ek1100 to the cx unit plz write some info:) or else it will just be controlled via outputs.. if its a lost course i am planning to run the cx unit as a normal plc instead. it will run transmission/gears and spindle, lights and such.
 Have a nice day all :)

Looking forward to your updates :) btw have you tried getting the built in homing to work or setting up the I/O's in the drive?
 

I'm honestly undecided at this point how I will proceed with homing.
Since these have absolute encoders I'd like to just do instant homing and get battery boxes to maintain position data.
I will still need to do an initial sensor homing so LCNC has a reference to start from.
I did tinker a bit with the custom homing component mentioned elsewhere here on the forum but shelved that idea for the moment till I got the physical install part complete.
For IO's I'm using a couple Beckhoff modules.

I haven't got to any tuning yet still working on the control cabinet...
The version of tuning software that I have is mostly Chinese. I asked if they were planning to release and English version and was told no.
I was planning on tuning using the front panel of each drive.
We shall see I guess...

I think the majority of us are using a debian of some kind. you are using the latest bullseye image?

raf did a write up on his process for install
forum.linuxcnc.org/18-computer/44828-rem...rd?start=1570#291712

i guess try that first, but if you can run, and ping, and tftpy is working,
the next thing to try would be to doing a fullchip erase on the rt1052, and reloading the firmware and config

i was trying to find the error that produces just now, but i cant find the old posts about it.

How to get MPG input (hm2_7i96s.0.inm.00.enc0-count) to move axis

Category: HAL

its a bit involved, you can look here for the basic hal setup

linuxcnc.org/docs/html/examples/mpg.html

(that happens to use a software encoder counter but the basics are the same)

Note that there are jog enable,count and scale pins for both axis and joints
The joint pins are active before homing and the axis pins are active after homing.

You could also search the forum for "MPG" as there may be a MPG setup using similar
hardware as yours.

Remora for RP2040

Category: Computers and Hardware

hello scotta and thank you for your amazing work
i got my rp 2040 working with remora and its amazing 
it works with axis and qtdragon 
my question now is how to get it to work with qtplasmac, i cant get it to work even though i copied all the necessary config lines in both hal and ini files from my par port configs
can anyone help me with this
Thanks in advance



this isnt necessarily within the scope of remora, but more related to linuxcnc and hal config, but if you used one of the config generators, I would suggest redoing your config for a mesa card, its fairly easy to convert a mesa config to a remora config with minor changes, paraport had more stuff going on last time i looked.

otherwise, it would be helpful if you posted the errors you get when trying to start linuxcnc, these can be easily viewed by opening linuxcnc in terminal. Posting your ini and hal files would also be helpful. there isnt much difference between a plasmac config and any any other config, except there are a few hardcoded hal pins you need to connect to for plasmac.

Bulls eye, Tommy. It's Polish indeed. His nickname suggested me he's polish. i have the same machine (stahlwerk cut 70p) with machine torch sitting in the box for more than one year now (yes, haven't used it yet:D) and i think it's time to have some fun with it. it's HF pilot machine and i'm trying to figure out how to make it usable in cnc table. Have a bunch of Mesa cards i bought some time ago when i was visiting the States and would be nice to make it all work together. i don't have THCAD though...:/

I want to connect my spindle to a 5 Axis Breakout Board Interface Adapter via a raspberry pi5. I can control the stepper motors (XYZ). I just can't control the spindle. Is there an example for the HAL file?

If I bypass the relay contact. Then the spindle will rotate to the maximum. If I press the + button it slows down. When I press the - button it speeds up. When I press the stop button, it starts running at maximum speed. 
Anyone have a solution?

Greetings Philip
