I've looked through the updated config you linked and I can't see anything about a House section or HALLUI = halui

Can the OPI5 be Configured to Run LCNC?

I tried the new debs and I have the same problem when booting.
I made an image after nvme that does not boot and I wrote it on an SDcard. From the SDcard the same image (6.1.75-rt23) starts.
Can you upload an image that worked for you on nvme. I would like to see if it works.

Hal, in the section you posted above..

[HAL]
HALUI = halui
HALFILE = CNCMACHINE.hal
# HALFILE = custom.hal
POSTGUI_HALFILE = probe_basic_postgui.hal
TWOPASS = on

Haven't changed my .ini since posting it in the start of the thread besides adding one comment to my [HAL] here is that section

Performance issues after switching from LCNC 2.8.4 Buster to 2.9.3 Bookworm

Category: EtherCAT

Thanks Rod, I find it rather unfortunate that somebody like you does not seem be offered write access to the 'official' install documentation. The pull request process is so sluggish that by the time new install docs might actually make it through they're already outdated.

I have tried to keep my doc current but I have not installed on a problem PC for quite a while. It has been suggested the install ISO should install the R8168 driver as it should not get in the road. Not sure on that. (I built the ISO and the Pi images for Linuxcnc).

At one stage I was asked to edit the getting Linuxcnc docs and it included most of my documentation notes you refer to. This was accepted and was published in the 2.9 docs. However, when 2.9.1 was released, this was all blown away and replaced with content based on 2.8 docs.

I think there should be a new document added that might be called something like "System Optimisation for Linuxcnc", perhaps a seperate doc for the raspberry Pi it links to. If somebody was to have a go at that from my material, I would not have a problem. Asciidoc and I are not good friends.
I almost know enough about git to be trusted with write access... but time is an issue

For a gantry machine you must have homing sensors on both sides of the gantry.
for an XYYZ machine, start with a HOME_SEQUENCE of 0, -1, -1, 2  for each joint in order

ProbeBasic Spindle connection (No Speed indicated, no control possible)

Category: QtPyVCP

Hey!

I am currently trying to get my machine running. My current issue is that I can not get the connection between my spindle (A BD600 via VFDmod over RS485) working in ProbeBasic. I can change the speed of the spindle using GCODE, so I can confirm that it works. However, I can not see the speed in BasicProbe nor can set the Speed. I think I am missing any HAL connection. My machine hal (iHSV57.hal) is currently a mess but I attached it as well.

My BD600.hal looks as following:
# Load VFDmod for spindle control
loadusr -W vfdmod bd600.ini --debug

# Spindle Speed Command (From LinuxCNC to VFDmod)
net spindle-speed-cmd spindle.0.speed-out => vfdmod.spindle.rpm-in

# Spindle Speed Feedback (From VFDmod to LinuxCNC and GUI)
#net spindle-speed-in spindle.0.speed-in <= vfdmod.spindle.rpm-out

# Spindle Direction Control (Forward and Reverse)
net spindle-cw spindle.0.forward => vfdmod.control.run-forward
net spindle-ccw spindle.0.reverse => vfdmod.control.run-reverse

# Spindle Enable/Disable (Start/Stop)
#net spindle-enable spindle.0.on => vfdmod.control.run

# Spindle "At Speed" Feedback
net spindle-at-speed <= vfdmod.spindle.at-speed

# VFD Communication Status
net spindle-comm-ok <= vfdmod.rs485.is-connected

Does anyone know the correct connection? Is there any documentation available?

Hey there, sorry for the late response.
I wanted to get back whenever the machine and the servos are in their places and actually drive something.
Thanks again for your help and explanations. Understanding the historical context can be very helpful especially when looking for example configuration that may be 2.7 and earlier.

In any case, while I tested all axis back then without problems I think I never tested driving two joints (servos) on the same axis. I use TRIVKINS X Y Y Z. Where

Now with everything on the machine I can drive joint 1 (first Y servo) just fine. Joint two doesn't do a thing. Looking at the HAL output I can see that Joint2 (doesn't get any commands. I briefly wired that servo the Z-Axis just to test the wiring and it's moving without a problem. Is there something I should be checking beyond the TRIVKINS portion?

pastebin.com/3gND7BUk

Is what I have now.


Also if we're at it, would such a setup benefit from two homing sensors on the Y axis? The gantry is rigid.


Thanks again,
Alessandro

Using the following

uname -a
Linux debcnc 6.1.0-23-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Debian 6.1.99-1 (2024-07-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux


From the url to install and setup mesact
github.com/jethornton/mesact

To run from a terminal you need to install some depenencies:
sudo apt install python3-pyqt5
sudo apt install python3-distro
sudo apt install zip

When I run..

 sudo apt install python3-distro
 
I get the following error message.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package python3-distro is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'python3-distro' has no installation candidate


Does anyone know how to fix? Thanks
Thanks

Time to revisit coolant mapping of M-codes in Linuxcnc

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Found the relevant commit, looks like the change would need to be done here (also)
'src/emc/rs274ngc/rs274ngc_interp.hh':

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/d731...f8b87d773bc7868288b2

I'll try tomorrow.

[edit]

- Seems this section of the code has been moved to the one in interp_remap.cc I posted above
- And yes this seems to work just fine, although it does not allow a call to the built in M code as for the other built in Mcode remaps.
