Ah, I didn't see anything on a real machine. Will have to look deeper.

First tart is here in 2 weeks or so, so ill try it on that.

I think grandixxmo takes the prize already. A complete stable and finished scurve planner with a PR for inclusion in the linuxcnc core code. (new features go into 2.10 so that's where it is). Also tested by another user on real hardware (by endian) In the mean time, try the version in his github. It works!

Do you mean both servo drives are connected to the same analog output?
If yes, that does not work, analog drives can not be wired like that as it will mess with the feedback.
Each MUST use it's own output and it's own feedback.

interesting. I'll be watching where this goes. There have been 100 false starts on this that never make it to the end. That's why I am going to be offering up a tart, to incentivise completion.

(completion mean running a machine bug free, solid, stable and finished)

Yes, you can see the other post in the forum

forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...-curve-accelerations

Endian posted a video in action.
It will be in 2.10 release, it's in my Linuxcnc fork now, and should be merged soon to master.

Now the wiring is correct and the enable is working. If i test every axis for its own it seems to work fine.

But now i got a problem with my gantry Y Axis. If both Y Axis connected to the TB5 and we press F2 the Motors jumps around and an following error occures. Do you have any idea why this happend?

Anyone have any ideas what's wrong with my spindle. The video clip below shows the lathe in CSS mode. Everytime I'm moving the X axis you can see the display on the vfd dipping , when a lot of speed changes are there it newly stops the spindle it's so low. I noticed this in manual mode also. When changing to another speed it dips slightly before going to the commanded speed. I measured the 0-10v output on the Ec500 and can see the voltage dipping before going back up.

The issue is resolved. The only missing part was adding USER_M_PATH = /home/cnc/linuxcnc/nc_files to the [RS274NGC] section of the .ini file. After adding this line and restarting LinuxCNC, the M130 user M-code was recognized correctly.

 Thanks to hmnijp for the help and guidance.

The PINS ENA0- and ENA0+ on the TB5 connector should get power when I turn on the machine with F2 right???

 

No.
They just short internally as a normal switch.

My wiring was a little bit different, I configured the enable signal to my normal Digital Outputs and connected the servo enable cable direct to the output signal.

I did some changes and tried to wired it properly but...
If I press F2 in LinuxCNC the analogena signal seem to work in the HALSHOW but there is no power on the TB5 Analog Drive Interface from the 7i77. The PINS ENA0- and ENA0+ on the TB5 connector should get power when I turn on the machine with F2 right???
 

Yeah, I was already doing that with the other NC contact from the estop to the Mesa input and tied into the estop-latch logic in hal.

Thanks a lot. 
Cheers,

I don't need them, this post was a continuation of a previous post on the subject of adding a second Y axis to my machine. But PCW has answered my question so finding the previous post is a not necessary.

Thx,

#1 to #30 are used to send variables to a called subroutine, so them are not writeable in the sub. If names given from #31 up, it should work

I can't advise on whether there are Mesa cards which can work directly with the Heidenhain scales. EXE610C units are cheap on eBay here, so I purchased 3 for my FP2NC conversion. Meridian Measurement Systems has a newer converter product, which I suspect is based on the iC-Haus iC-NV chip:

I plan to use a 6i25 and 7i77 Mesa Plug-N-Go kit, which I already had on hand. The conversion isn't finished yet.
