With standard firmware P1 is all GPIO regardless of driver settings

man hostmot2

For GPIO setup information

(GPIO starts up as inputs so pins used for outputs
must be set into output mode)

Note that the P1 pins are 5V tolerant but have 3.3V output levels
Suggest using a cheap parallel port breakout if you want buffered 5V levels

I need 5V outputs. I'll drive some low power relays using these GPIO's.

Hi...got the same result as posted above...below is pasted result...do I need to reinsert usb that had ISO?

Thanks

I have a question: I have already installed ethecat and linuxcnc-ethercat. With the command sudo systemctl status ethercat.service I see that the service is running. With the command ethercat master I try to see which master is configured and I get the error: Failed to obtain number of masters: ioctl() version magic is differing: /dev/EtherCAT0: 37, ethercat tool: 30

The question is: do I necessarily have to have a device connected that supports ETHERCAT to confirm that I have everything installed correctly, or why does this error appear and how to solve it?

sudo apt update
then
sudo apt upgrade

Hi...I have no experience with linux but downloaded Debian 12 Bookworm ISO...installed..no internet...have connection now but get the following when I try...I also was not able to run mesa configuration tool...clock is also wrong...related??

Thanks for any help!!

turns out that a traditional sub call does not work in the ON_ABORT_COMMAND option either. It appears that it strips out the <> characters. It errors on a e-stop saying it can't find a subroutine called "Oon_abort". I think I will have to go the custom M code route instead.

Is their an "easy" way to remap keyboard outputs? im using a game pad that doesnt have page up/down so i dont have z axis control.

No, P1 is not used. I don't see a config modparam to disable P1 in the man pages. So, does that mean if by virtue of P1 not connected it is disabled and I can use the GPIO pins. I'd rather use P1 because it seem sserial is more problematic.

Can you tell me how exactly to use P1 pins for GPIO? Thanks.

Yes, you will only gain 1 differential input and 1 differential output

Why does unloading the sserial module cause stepgen errors?

Probably a driver bug and the 0 enabled sserial channels string
corner condition that causes a memory allocation error was missed.

The xxxxxx0 string will accomplish the same thing without triggering the error
The pins will always revert to GPIO if no sserial device is found, but
the advantage of the xxxxxx0 string is disabling the initial sserial device probe.

If you need TTL level inputs, spare encoder pins can be used
 
Is P1 being used? that gives you 17 GPIO pins if available.

swapped ethernet cables and its fine.

i should really get into a line of work where just discovering problems for someone else to fix is in my job description LOL

*** NEW ISSUE ***

i swapped the mobo back out because the window resolution actually fits the whole window of Lcnc.

anyway, i get an error on startup and it wont discover the board in advanced setup, but it pings 10.10.10.10

Hallo julian,

ich habe das bei nochmaliger Kalibrierung vor einer Stunde selber festgestell..#

Vielen Dank

I don't know if it depends on this, but I think that in the .hal file
there is this error.
It should be: setp
not sets

 

LCNC should have given an error

 

Answering automata and Hankan, it's a nice idea, but I need to investigate more, my experience with Ethercat is limited. I'm not the main firmware developer, I only touched some part of the code in order to accomodate the hardware changes.
I'll start the documentation soon and I'll look in the source code anyway...
I would like to improve this board since I couldn't find any other open source alternatives.
