If anyone uses this I'd like to know. I put a zillion hours into this project and I only know of a few including myself that use it.

i have dowload it of reposity and start it at boot selection.
LXCNC run normally.

Questions: But after start new kernel is need to recompile linuxcnc ?

Kernel 5.10 was shipped with Bullseye which there was never an official Linuxcnc release for. Plus you will probably get caught with python versions.
I would bite the bullet and upgrade to Bookworm and use the ISO on the downloads page.
There is not any real reason to stick to buster if you are using Ethercat. We have made it very easy to install now. Refer the stickies in the ethercat section

 

hallo, ich bin wieder da ich dachte nun alle Probleme beseitigt zu haben, der ping wie du gesehen ist gut.

aber dafür habe ich nun mit der aktuellen Installation das Problem das die Verbindung abbricht nach ca 50-60sekunden

die karte hat der Kollege am anderen Rechner getestet da läuft sie einwandfrei. dort ist aber noch die Version vor 2.9.x installiert.

hier ist das neueste Image installiert die ip der netzwerkkarte ist auf 192.168.1.20 255.255.255.0 kein Gateway installiert.

wo könnte hier nun der Fehler wieder liegen ich bin gerade mit TeamViewer am Rechner zugeschalten

hast du eine idee wie oder was da nun wieder falsch sein kann? das mit dem nm-tray hab ich schon versucht

danke im voraus und schöne grüße

Seems like this could be of interest:
linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-config...ub:ini:sec:joint-num

Have a look at:
linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gui/qtdragon.html#_hal_pins

'qtdragon.slider-jogspeed-linear' looks like a good candidate

Hi i use Debian Buster with Kernel 4.19.027-rt-amd64 with ethercat.
I want use a pc with NIC Intel I219-V and it not have good support in kernel 4.19.
On reposity i have see can install Kernel 5.10.218-rt-amd64 and it support native NIC I219-v.
The kernel 5.10.218-rt-amd64 run good on Buster ?

Thanks

hi, I also had problems with the locking of my tool changer. I have now linked the strob sensor of the encoder to the locking and installed a small safety feature so that if the strob (locking signal) is not there, it goes into motion hold.

We could do with speeding up the axis as they are quite slow, I’m assuming it’s velocity or acceleration could you confirm where I’m looking in the ini or Hal files
Many thanks

A ethercat digital output card can not drive a stepper motor, it is too slow.
Best is to use an ethercat-integrated stepper motor driver, such as rtelligent ect60.
A really slow encoder (a few Hz) can possible be read with the EL1008. The EL510x is otherwise needed, especially for the arc voltage reading.

If you already have stepper motors and drivers, mesa is the best way. There is one card that has all functions needed.

RPI must be near the screen, you can have 30 meter long LAN cable to Mesa and it works even for plasma machines, tested, but HDMI will have huge issues in such environments even at 1.5 meter long cable, and you also need USB for touch screen, probably.

Yes that got it going. I had missed that... I thought it would be related to the jog value on the screen.

Are there any pin values that would allow me to use the equivalent button on the UI?
I am using QTDragon UI by the way.

There are a lot of functions in the UI that I would like to link to the USB buttons.

Can someone point me to a good tutorial on this subject.

Thanks

Hello to all.

I'm using LinuxCNC about 10 years with parallel port PC on several machine. They were succesfull setups.

But now I have a new project and I think that something needs to be change...

Let me explain my new project;

• 5 axis, step/dir driven motor drivers
• 1 home switch for each axes, totaly 5
• 1 end switch for all axes, totaly 1
• 1 e-stop
• 4 extra digital outputs
• 2 extra digital inputs
• Sum up;
  • OUTPUTS: 5 step, 5 dir, 4 digital output
  • INPUTS: 9 digital inputs

 

• The LinuxCNC is going to run on Raspberry pi ( not decided whether 4 or 5)
• There is a teach pendant with touch screen( there will be no screen more), everything is going to be controlled by this screen
• The distance between screen and machine will be min. 2 meters.
• The machine is going to be used for welding in industrial environment.

Here is what I couldnt decide or have a reservations...

• If I will place Raspberry pi inside the teach pendant, there will be a 3 meters distance between I/Os and pi. So I have to use MESA board or Ethercat I/O board (I have never used any of them before) to combat with electronical parasits.
  • Negative side of using MESA board is there is no domestic dealers in Turkiye and if I wanted to buy externally there may be some problems with customs. If I overcome this problem, this card is ideal for me...
  • Negative side of using Ethercat I have no information in this world. In Turkiye I can easily find Beckhoff products and I think I have to use EK1100, EL1008 and EL2008 for my setups. But there is a big question for me, Can I drive stepper drivers with EL2008(digital output module) or Do I have to buy a EL7031 (motor controller) ?
    And as a similar question, Can I read an encoder with EL1008 or Do I have to buy EL5101 (encoder reader) ?
• If I will place Raspberry pi outside the teach pendant, there will be a 3 meters distance between the screen and pi. So I will use 3mt HDMI cable. On the I/O side I will use raspberry pi's GPIO pins. Do you think will this be a problem with 5 axis movement?

I know it is a little confusing but its same here ....
Can you offer me an another solution or Is my path correct?

Make sure that you have the jog speed speed set else the machine won't move when you try to jog it.

Here is an example:

setp halui.axis.jog-speed 100
