I'm using a 7i96s with 7i96s_p1encd.bin

I'm using an isolated I/O board to interface to the P1 connector, and I'm using the 4 encoders there:
    Encoder0: Linear Scale X  - tested and working
    Encoder1: Linear Scale Z - tested and working
    Encoder2: MPG input for X - waiting on encoder to arrive
    Encoder3: MPG input for Z - waiting on encoder to arrive

I just made a little potentiometer -> voltage to frequency converter circuit dc-1kHz and it's presently driving isolated input 0 on TB-3, I can see it pulsing in halshow.

I was hoping to use hm2_7i96s.0.encoder.xx.velocity to allow that pot to control Jog rate.
I bumped up num_encoders from 4 to 5, however looking at the available pins in HAL show, encoder 4 does not have all the pins available for encoders 0-3, so I'm guessing there is a 4 encoder limit for the 7i96s?

Perhaps there is another 7i96s version that allows more encoders (hoping for 2 more, one for jog speed and one for feed speed) with two of them on the isolated TB-3 terminals.

If that's not possible, is there another HAL method to measure frequency on the TB-3 isolated inputs?

 

With this config i have no errors

With this config for rotary axis everything more than 30000 for max acceleration and 37500 for stepgen max acceleration gives following error.
Configuration is done by pncconf stepgen A rotary axis
Servo motor driver for 1 turn needs 2500x4=10000 pulses
and has 2500rpm limit

I'll shake the dust off the old thread. I'm trying to upgrade to 2.10 version, I did it according to the instructions above. It seems to have updated, but LinuxCNC won't start, writes errors. What did I miss?
 

Check your work offsets.

So my main problem is when I use "tool touch off" or "touch off" button sometimes randomly it starts tool change process

That sounds pretty crazy, I've never heard of anything like this. What GUI are you using?
I think I would want to find the reason for that before doing anything else.

controlword is an output pin, not writable.

Here is a small example of how you connect the cia402 component
github.com/dbraun1981/hal-cia402/tree/main/example

If it still doesn't work after that, we need to see your hal and ethercat-conf.xml files.

So my main problem is when I use "tool touch off" or "touch off" button sometimes randomly it starts tool change process andthis pin supposed to become output when we are doing tool change
But suddenly out of nowhere its stuck and don't do anything
So I came up with the idea of addingAt my Tool change remap
this solution fixes my problem but I no longer can use MDI and its mean I only can do tool change when its running a G-code in auto mode.
What do you suggest?
Do you know why this happened or how to solve it? I tried to create a tab and put some button
and execute tool change commands but as you said it's impossible

According to the documentation, the control word is transmitted from the controller to the driver. What should it be? (I checked, and both with out and in I get the same error: not writable.)

Hey,

vielen Dank für den Tipp.
Das war auf jeden Fall meine Lösung, als ich das Problem vor paar Wochen/Monaten schon mal hatte.
Hat damals auch super funktioniert.
Dann schau ich auf jeden Fall nochmal nach ob sich da nochmal irgendwas geändert hat.

Just a conservative test cut



(I'm not even joking, that's 30% spindle load!)

Thankyou for helping me I had a switch on the driver set wrong.Im so glad to see something moving.

Thats annoying.

I'm sure this is a linuxcnc issue. If you install rt-tests with apt, you could test RT performance using cyclictest which will eliminate linuxcnc's shenanigans.

I have found results although different are broadly simlar to latency-histogram

Im checking my wiring now

Well, I built the stock 6.13-rc6-rt3 with RT patches from kernel.org and it does not create /sys/kernel/realtime
