The re-numbering workaround seems ok for now.

No way I'm going to risk 3 weeks of linux/LCNC installation misery only to go through it a seconds time for 2.10, 'cause that what always happens whenever I try to install it.

I'm in Ontario, Canada

Thank you for your generous offer. I was able to get it to boot up with 3 of the ram cards removed. Will see if replacing them will work as well. I am in Florida, USA.
Are you in this country?

Thanks again,

it is the same, the message is just better exposed in qtpyvcp. i posted axis results so it would be easier to test and would remove the use of a different gui from the troubleshooting equation.

if you want the error gone install the lockdown 2.9.3 until they get the issue sorted in 2.10.

did my first cuts on the Fehlmann to make the crane plate to move her to my new shop.










when I was circular milling I found that I had step losses. No errors in the drives, so this couldn't be. Since the drives are closed loop.
After some digging I found my stupid mistake when transferring the max acceleration from the drives to linuxcnc. It never showed till I really used a very slow movement on the Z axis.
So I dropped the acceleration in linuxcnc.
And now I get two strange things. Sometimes the Axis are oscillating shortly like a bad tuned PID system. I can see it on the dro, so it comes from linuxcnc also the machine now sometimes misses the reference switches, I can see that they are triggered. but the machine keeps traveling till hitting the limit switch. when I stop the homing before it behaves normal homing with the reference tripped.

Any Idea where to start searching?

STEPLEN (Stepper intervall in ns) 5000
STEP_SCALE = 1250
MAX_VELOCITY = 150
MAX_ACCELERATION = 150
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 200
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 200

Thanks

Is there anything further I can post or attach here (or on GH) to assist?

The error Lcvette posted on GH wasn't exactly the same as mine - at least I don't think so.

I wonder if at that speed you're getting near the max speed of the level shifter? How does the tang look at the same speed as the paraport?

Very cool guys. .

Excellent work.

Greetings.

Funny, I just finished my Panel as well:



It communicates with LinuxCNC via Modbus, with a STM32 Nucleo board running a simple Modbus server: github.com/hansu/ModbusIO/tree/devel

 

 

You will need to widen the following error limits to be able to tune the joints.

Thank you for correcting my mistake. The -10v is gone now.

I still have an issue though. Instead of jumping 0.0100in on enable it is now jumping 0.0015in. It is still enough to trigger a following error. I went ahead and checked voltages just to be sure. Before pressing F2 I am reading 0.008v after pressing F2 I am reading 0.010v. Is the voltage an issue?

im not certain, it may be that it was a molested version. it initially started as an apt install from sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace-dev mesaflash from the docs instructions and had been updated over the course of that pc build. for now i would say perhaps my install had been modified while troubleshooting dbtools work, so unless it pops up again, i would say assume it is relegated to 2.10.

PWM type must be 1

While I am sure that the ini changes needed to be done, they didn't effect the behavior of the analog out pin.

The current behavior is that once F2 is pressed to enable linuxcnc I am measuring -10v across pins 3 & 4. From what I understand this should be 0v until I attempt to jog. Max speed in one direction is -10v and max speed in the other direction is +10v.

I think I have something wrong with my pwmgen.

From reading pwmgen in the docs, I came to the conclusion that for a +-10v servo I needed output-type 2. This is what I have been attempting to use.
Is this correct?

I have tried comparing my hal and ini files to the basic7i97 hal and ini. I'm at a loss for what to try next, but I will keep looking.

There is a RS-485 port on the 7I96S but its unrelated to the encoder input.

One thing necessary for the encoder input to work with your single ended encoder
is to jumper the 7I96S encoder input for TTL/Single ended signals. This means jumpers
W1,W2,W3 must all be in the left hand position.
