Hello,
i installed the new LinuxCNC 2.9.8 Image with Debian Trixie and think the installation is not "ready to use" and need work.

First add the Debian repositories:
With
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
add the lines:

deb deb.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free-firmware
deb-src deb.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free-firmware
deb security.debian.org/debian-security stable-security main contrib non-free-firmware
deb-src security.debian.org/debian-security stable-security main contrib non-free-firmware

After that:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt autoremove

Select and activate your language:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

and your timezone:
sudo tzselect

Best regards

Michael

P.S.: With this Trixie-Image the old raspi-firmware bug seems to be away.  

We already tried that yesterday. But then a new error message appears:

available from another source

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

cnc@cnc:~$

in a terminal

edit to use TSN you need to: sudo apt install linuxptp
packages.debian.org/bookworm/linuxptp

Debian packages search says its there in trixie if I correct your spelling error
packages.debian.org/trixie/python3-distro
try: sudo apt install python3-distro

I would try the realtek dkms driver and the additional RT kennel tuning tweaks in my YouTube guide and I think you will have good performance


If you do buy a new NIC card.definitely get  an Intel card preferably one that supports time sensitive networking (TSN) Eg i210 series en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-Sensitive_Networking this gives real time network performance (finally) and is supported by ethercat. Take care as some of the intel cards have different versions and the entry level card for that model does not support TSN. Not sure if this will require slave level support.

First off, I'm not a computer expert. I've followed all the steps on the website step by step. I've attached a few screenshots. Can anyone tell me how to solve this problem?

Can anyone give me full detail intruction for the INOVANCE SERVO SV635N. I have try many hal and xml file but still not working. I have test all the servo in twincat everything OK.

hey guys i am also about to try scales plus ballscrews and encoders on a larger machine

just posting here to see if Nitram is still online at all?

hoping to make this work and then document it a bit for people and maybe post a config that is working etc

cheers

Is their any update, as I am too looking for a Mesa board

Can you show the probe parameters on the versa probe page please.

Lieber Oliver,

vielen Dank, die option rpi5:true hat geholfen, jetzt funktioniert die Axis App!
Nun kann ich mich in die Konfiguration vertiefen.

sei lieb gegruesst,
Robert

Open a terminal and type:
sudo apt update
type the password and hit enter.
Now try to install MesaCT.

Or is it possible that the drifting is normal (approx. 3-5 rpm)?

Yes it is normal for analog drives when there is no controller in use.

JanCNC wrote:

As I understand it, the axis should stand still when the OUTPUT_OFFSET is set correct, even in the normal CNC GUI. Is that correct?

Not entirely:
-the axis should stand still if everything is configured properly
-OUTPUT_OFFSET is used for adjusting forward/reverse speed, very rarely used.

You have other issues with enable not wired properly and controlled by LinuxCNC, you can NOT continue to do anything before fixing that as it is dangerous to you and to the machine.
The link i posted above, go step by step and check things work as described, no skipping.

Okay , thanks i want to use this board combined with a breakout board where the original flat cable sub d plugs are connected so i want to get +24v input signals and 24v output signals that means i just have to connect field a and b with the +24v from my power supply or do i have to connecht the two a and b with a bridge ?

The 7I84/7I84U has split field power supplies so you can have different
voltages (say 5V and 24V) on the inputs and outputs

You can normally ignore VIN as it powered by field power when W1 is in the default
left position.
