Hi all
My goal is to setup a raspberry pi with ethercat.

I have a raspberry Pi 5 with an additional network interface from waveshare ( here )
its planned to use this additional ethernet port for connecting the machine to the network, and the native Port on the Pi for Ethercat.
to use this additional Interface, the kernel needs to be recompiled with some additions to the config file.

I am not familiar with recompiling a kernel, thats why i am seeking help here. 

Has anyone encountered similar issues?
Is there maybe a fixed Kernel to download so i dont need to do the recompile?

greetings
Marc






 

Hello, good morning. I'm from Argentina.
I own a Sodick A320D, and unfortunately, it's down due to a broken computer (NEC 9801UF).
Could you help me with anything?
Thank you very much.

That's a pretty ancient LinuxCNC version, but getting it going as it used to work as a first step makes sense prior to any attempts to update.

The Pico USC is still supported as far as I know.

forum.linuxcnc.org/27-driver-boards/14977-pico-systems-faq

If you post questions in the driver-boards section there is a fair chance that the manufacturer will see them.

More antennae to collect interference ...
OK for stuff with no big inductive loads, not OK otherwise to use long cables, neither is using more cables.
And mind the wiring loops.

The OP seems to have left the building due to bickering and useless replies, not nice.

I'm interested in what I'm learning and would like to know what career options use this knowledge.  I see some guys mentioning that they've built cnc machines for years - I find that intriguing.  

You could see if Tormach want to take you on: tormach.com/careers

I am afraid that I can't advise on how to make a career out of LinuxCNC, every time anyone has offered me money for LinuxCNC I have refused (I already have a real job and a hobby, if I make the hobby into a job then I have no time, and no hobby)

eBay is full of CNC machines with dead controls. Whether there is a market for them in an upgraded-to-linuxcnc form I don't know. 
 

Connecting the wires "far from each other" from the same supply will do nothing.There is no electrical isolation. None whatsoever.

If the error is in English, post the English text.

Please attach a screenshot.

What version of LinuxCNC are you running?

What is your Operating System?

AXIS does the same thing; it's annoying.

Yes, in fact I have been considering this exact business. I looked for a local apprenticeship, but couldn't find anyone doing this kind of work locally. A guy on youtube has some great videos. It fits my interests and skills - I wonder how I could find my chances of getting customers. While I do not have a large truck, I can certainly factor that into the costs. If anyone here is involved in this kind of business please let me know the pros and cons.
Thank you langdons

The truck was just an example.

I just meant like use what you have.

If you have a vehicle that can transport large glass panes, that could be useful for a glass engraving business.

If you have a drill press, that could be useful to machine steel.

If you go to a scrap yard and happen to see an old CNC machnefor sale that might be repairable, that machine could become the foundation of your operation.

Use what's available.

(But don't reuse nails, that's just a waste of everyone's time)

And never underestimate how much people will pay you for basic computer assistance.

Literally unplugging a PC and plugging it back in can likely earn you $100.

Just pretend it's difficult and people will pay you, that's how the economy works.

Buenos días a todos, necesito ayuda sobre un problema que nos aparece en nuestra CNC, sale un error en el que pone "Error de seguimiento en la articulación ... ", aparece este mensaje en ingles y después de esto se apaga la maquina desde el programa. Que debo hacer??
Tiene solución???

If one supply is the only option, you can at least try to make the wires connect far from each other (never daisy-chain).

But 2 supplies is better; 100%.

I guess that this means that you need to re-wire the bldc.0.init HAL pin to something other than machine.is-on ?

Possibly to joint.2.homed

This sounds like a question for the ProbeBasic forum section.

Most of the stuff is in Github: github.com/andypugh/LatheMacros
The images are all in the .svg file as different layers.
The fusion 360 models that the SVG files came from might have moved with a change in how Autodesk store data.
The various models are here:
a360.co/43OnIFj
I made the SVG layers by creating a shaded isometric drawing of each component then exporting the drawing to SVG.
