This has been fixed.

Please consult the HAL documentation as hal_type and hal_dir that have no choice are no longer used. The hal_type if there is a choice like HAL_S32 OR HAL_U32 must be specified.

#* Nur wirksam, wenn **Machine ON**
#* Führt aus:

 # * `program.run`
 # * `program.resume`
 #* **löst Feed Hold**
#* Funktioniert parallel zu gmoccapy-Buttons

---

### ⏸ FEED HOLD (GPIO 037)

#* Stoppt Achsbewegungen sofort
#* Interpreter läuft weiter
#* **Gesperrt bei aktivem E-Stop**

#---

### STOP / RESET (GPIO 039)

#* **Kurz drücken (<1.5 s)** → `program.stop`
#* **Lang drücken (>1.5 s)** → `program.reset`
#* Reset **nur erlaubt, wenn Programm steht**


### STATUS-LEDs

* **RUN-LED** → Programm läuft
* **FEED HOLD-LED** → Feed Hold aktiv
* **FAULT-LED** → E-Stop ODER Maschine faulted

Hi,
I would probably not say quite cheap. But the support probably is worth it. I did not find anything about an actual usecase of the picoBOB.
As far as I understand right now the 7i96 is a 7i92 with an "integrated" breakoutboard right?
Then this would probably really be the easiest way. But disadvantage is probably if something smokes up the whole card is done. With a seperate breakout board maybe I need only to change the BOB.
Does someone knows a BOB that has the function of a 0-10V output for spindle that works with the 7i92?
For Inputs I would probably only need 3 Endpointswitches and one for the probe and toollength. If I would like to add the glass sensors later, can I do this with another daughter cards from mesa?
Thanks alot!
regards Han

Your jog settings are really slow. That's why it moves so slowly.
These are settings in the ini file. I don't use axis so can't advice further on that,
but many users do use axis and should be able to tell you what and where to change.
 

Test the following in the MDI "G1 X200 F20000"
that should give quite a bit better speed. Adjust velocity and acceleration settings in the ini file to your liking.
The drives should work fine. When you ask to much of them they will give you following errors. But you are not near that.

There are some optimizations you can do.

The 2 ms servo period is in itself not a problem. But if you use 2 ms servo period because your computer
can't keep up with 1 ms then you should work on the performance of the computer. It should run flawlessly
without any (well a single one would be ok) "UNMATCHED DATAGRAMS" in the syslog. Check that.

You should also set up DC synchronization of the drives, see here github.com/linuxcnc-ethercat/linuxcnc-et...istributed-clocks.md
syncToRefClock in the master line. dcConf statement for every slave.

When this works fine, check syslog again, there should be no (or maybe one) UNMATCHED DATAGRAMS or other messages
indicating performance problems. In which case you should work on the network performance especially use dkms drivers for
Realtek network adapters.

Then it is standard linuxcnc again. Tune the drives, adjust velocity and acceleration settings.

first steps

Does the PC have an add on graphic card? If yes, remove it and try with the onboard graphic, or vice versa, if it does not have one try finding a used one to test with.
Another thing to check is for locale to be set as UTF-8, and maybe try EN-US also.

Jon,

I have tried both 1.9 and 1.7 on the bios epp setting.

I tried the epp_dir=1 setting as you suggested.

The cable is the same one I have been using since I converted the machine back in 2015 or so.

The load fail red led does come on and stay on when I boot up linuxcnc and get the error messages. also the green estop ok led is lit as well. Prior to starting linuxcnc the light is off.

I decided to try and update to 2.9 linuxcnc and see if that helps but I am running into issues with that also. I need to get python3.7 installed but it is not playing nice. I will keep working on it but I suspect it is a hardware issue.

Do we need to try another eprom?
 

This is catching my interest. I think I will try it. I have at my fingertips a Pi 3 Model B+ but it is not working, not sure why. Maybe I dropped it a while back. I also have a Pi 3 Model B V1.2, I have it running a fresh install of Debian 12 Bookworm.

Now it is installing LXDE.
Next up is realtime kernel, I'm looking at linux-image-6.1.0-41-rt-arm64
And then LinuxCNC....
Fingers crossed...

Today i recognized a problem with radiobutton, hal_io . The button is set to checked in designer, but the hal_pin is not set to true at startup. A single radiobutton is even unchecked at startup.  To click an already checked radiobutton doesn't help. I need to check one of the unchecked radiobutton (to activate) set the hal_pin to true.

I think the language barrier made the text above a bit confusing, so adding some screenshot


 



 





 

On a 7I92T you can change the  GPIO  resistors from pullups (default) to pulldowns
to solve this issue (W2 down)

fixed the spindle with a R1000 resistor between pin1 of the db25 plug and ground. all good now!

So I built a CNC plasma cutter out of garbage.... and since I built it out of garbage, I used a very old computer to run it.  It's a 32bit computer, so I'm stuck running Linuxcnc 2.8.  I got a base configuration working and running fairly well, but because it's made out of garbage, it really needs torch height control.  I got a THCAD and got everything wired up to my Mesa 7i96s, and ran the PlasmaC configurator.  The buttons on the bottom of the screen work, I can test the ohmic probe, and the probe cycle seems to work, but I can't get any of the GladeVCP components to load.  The tabs are there, but they're blank, and if I try to configure it with a Run panel instead of the run tab, it doesn't show up.  The other issue I have is I can't load a G-code file, it seems to get stuck "Filtering."  On top of that, I'm now having latency issues I wasn't having before.  I've been staring at and trying to troubleshoot my configurations for way too long and I can't find anything obviously wrong, so I suspect this 20+ year old Dell just isn't up to the task.  Part of the "art" of this machine was that it's made of junk, so if I can keep using this computer, I'd like to... but I'd also like the machine to work properly, so I figured I'd at least upload my configs for someone more knowledgeable to look at before I buy something more modern.

I'm afraid that the 56U is not supported. Or at least I did not add explicit support for this.

I do not know if the 56 series supports the PulseEngine V2 which I'm using to control the motion. You could try though.

In the source code there is a check , if the device is a 57CNC, which only logs a warning.
And there is another check if the "external pulse generator" is used.

Excerpt from the documentation

Pulse engine v2 supports two different pulse generator modules:
- Internal: similar to basic Pulse engine, limited to 25 kHz pulse frequency at 3 channels, uses built-in circuitry and pins
- External: new in v2, limited to 125 kHz pulse frequency at 8 channels, requires external circuitry to deserialize the data to pulses
