Hi endian, Thanks for your answers. I'll try to follow your advices. Another question: How do I setup the SDOs. Do you have some hints for me?

Remora - ethernet NVEM / EC300 / EC500 cnc board

Category: Computers and Hardware

Hello!
I'll try to flash remora firmware for my new board, but how do you know which pins are the SWCLK, SWDIO? I suppose the bottom one is the GND.

LinuxCNC-RIO - RealtimeIO for LinuxCNC based on FPGA (ICE40 / ECP5)

Category: Computers and Hardware

if i have overlooked any open questions, please ask again, i was a bit busy at the weekend and lost the thread


here is my excuse:mitsubishi rv-e2 

 
without controller and one harmonic drive is broken :(
 

I approve of this excuse!

Quick question about the iceshield config:

Should the pi be emitting 18mHz, rather than 5mhz via pin 7 instead, since the oscillator is configured as 18mhz on pin 35 on the up5k? I wonder if this is the source of my following error at higher speeds?

THCAD selection including ohmic sensing

Category: Plasmac

I don't think the contractor is required as the hypersensing circuit is impervious to high voltage.
Currently when the voltage exceeds 24 volts, the component is seeing an arc voltage and it never breaks now. The thcad always sees a bit past the full scale and the 390k resistor sets full scale to 23.5 volts anyway.

So what if you mux the  THCAD calibration instead? once it is > 24 volts, recalibrate it to be fullscale 200 or 300 volts?

MDI_COMMAND = O <safe-go-home>         CALL

I don't know if this is it, but if that's a copy-paste from your INI file it looks like there's a space between "O" and "<safe-go-home>"

So I'd check if there's a space, as well as double-checking the subroutine path in INI file.

EDIT: Aciera beat me to it.  Again.

Doesn't sound like a problem with your pyvcp panel but rather with your subroutine path.
Have you tried running this in the MDI command input:
o<safe-go-home> call 
If that gives you the same error, which I would expect, then check that you have placed the file 'save-go-home.ngc' in a directory listed in PROGRAM_PREFIX or SUBROUTINE_PATH in your INI file.

LinuxCNC-RIO - RealtimeIO for LinuxCNC based on FPGA (ICE40 / ECP5)

Category: Computers and Hardware

Awesome. I will test it with my oscilloscope. I wonder if I need something like a pull down resistor after/before the level shifter.

I noticed that the one of my outputs is not always switching. It's tied to the "machine on" but when I toggle the machine on an off, sometimes it's not reacting. I also get some error messages in the Terminal.

This is my current wiring.
 

Just a thought, try setting the feed rate very very low, and maybe with a low scale factor. I noticed on my board (based on rio-iceshield but with slightly different parts and design), after about 2khz, the output signal no longer falls near zero and I get a strange offset sawtooth on the oscilloscope. Around 1.6khz I get nearly a sine wave, but with a flat bottom. Under 1khz I get a nice square wave. So I think I have some capacitance issues or the line driver isn't fast enough. Still digging into it. the ULN2803A I used looks like it's fast enough based on the datasheet but who knows!

What error messages? I had to tune FERROR and MIN_FERROR a bit for my setup to solve some following errors.

ERROR: Button to run a simple routine

Category: pyVCP

I have built over 40 pyvcp panels in my life... and I have a button that runs a simple routine to safely go home.
Lift the Z, move to the XY, lower the Z. Simple... here is the code.

O<safe-go-home> sub
G90 G20        
M5         
M9          
G53 G0 Z 0
G0 X0 Y0
G0 Z0         
O<safe-go-home> endsub


The panel has a button with a halpin: safe-go-home

And the custom_postgui.hal has

net panel-safe-go-home  <= halui.mdi-command-00  <= pyvcp.safe-go-home

And lastly, the INI has...

[HALUI]
# add halui MDI commands here (max 64)
MDI_COMMAND = O <safe-go-home>         CALL


All the components I've used like 40 times before.

Now... on this machine... I'm getting...

EOF in file:/usr/share/axis/images/axis.ngc seeking o-word o<safe-go-home> from line 0

What the heck?

Unexpected realtime delay on task 0 with period 1000000

Category: QtPyVCP

Did you try pinning the IRQ?

This script can be used for testing:

 

File Attachment:

File Name: pinirq_2024-11-04.txt
File Size:1 KB


chmod +x pinirq.txt

then

./pinirq.txt [ethernet_device_name]

My home desktop (a HP EliteDesk G1) needs this
its running  6.11.0-rc3-rt3

Note that Debian RT kernels tend to be terrible

I tried searching for a repository of the kernel to see if i could dig through and see what changes were made but its very difficult, it looks like kernel.org was the most informative but i still could not find an actual repository with a history tree to hunt through.  anyone that could direct me to the spot to start digging?


Have you tried importing the rt git project into a git client (eg gitKraken) and then compare 2 branches?

Will try soon, due to a stupid design of the computer box and that I was too eager in my screwing in the computer, a plastic thing on the hard disc broke.
 
Right now, the computer does not want to know about the hard disc.

Thanks for all the help so far.

PhillC54.
This is an interesting aproach, basically we are muxing the THCAD input, may be some processing power can be saved using only one encoder.
I re-draw your schematic just to make it more readable, I think this will require some changes to PlasmaC componet.

Or please share a similar code, I would be very grateful

Try searching the forum.  I suggest limiting the search to 'title' only, and go back longer than a year.  Research the numerous posts where other folks have worked through various tool changer problems and see if what they discussed is similar to your situation.

The first problem with your request is that logic for tool changers is very hardware-specific; only you know what hardware you have and how LCNC can control it.

Second problem is that there are many different ways (in software) to control a tool changer.  G-code subroutines, Classic Ladder (i.e. PLC), python + hal via the GUI, and probably others.  As with your hardware, only you know which control scheme is the 'best' for your situation.
