Do you mean that the pendant did not recover in the above situation after you had commented out the assert line?

You could enable all logging by adding the "-a" option when loading the xhc-whb04b-6 component. It will write a lot of things to the terminal... which makes it easier to figure out if it gets stuck in some specific part of the code.

Hi,
i made a new install on my system today but fail again

- I downloaded and installed Bookworm 12.13 from the Probe Basic site  kcjengr.github.io/probe_basic/probe_basi..._stable_install.html
- i did sudo apt update
- i did sudo apt upgrade
- i downloaded the AMD64 Deb for PC
- i did cd~
- i did cd Download
- i did sudo dpkg -i linuxcnc-uspace_2.9.8_amd64.deb

the result after the last step

sudo dpkg -i linuxcnc-uspace_2.9.8_amd64.deb

I have added a bit more logging to the component..
The component is attempting to connect, it says, but I wonder if it actually tries and why that doesn't work.

That's right. Linuxcnc doesn't use an ESI file.
The ethercat master reads out the info it needs from the slave directly.

The safest way to update the SII eeprom contents of the drive is to use TwinCAT.
There are a number of steps needed, but in principle not difficult.
Download and install TwinCAT from Beckhoff it you don't already have it,
Place the ESI file you got from support in C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Config\Io\EtherCAT
or where your twincat installation is.
In this video I update the firmware on a device, the principle is the same for your drive.
Go to 5:20 for the relevant part.

 

Okay. I did not really think that libusb_fill_interrupt_transfer() would solve the issue. But that IS the correct function to use in any case.

If the disconnect happens only at mode switches, I'm pretty sure it can be solved simply by modifying the xhc-whb04b-6 component. Maybe we need to add some more (temporary) logging to the component to pinpoint the issue.

It appears our dongle firmware is different by one version increment. But of course the hardware side is the important one for compatibility. I would think that there is a good chance that the hardware is compatible or the same.

Had two crashes yesterday. Mode switching. libusb_fill_interrupt_transfer() isn't the solution.
 
I had commented out the assert() in setupAsyncTransfer and let it continue

Hi at all,

Yesterday, after many Month of working without any problem, my Mill stops with an error "Positionerror ...".
My config runs on Probe Basic with a MESA 7i96S and a7i85S (for the aditional linear-encoders)

I restartet Probe Basic, but every time I tried to reference, i allways got the same error and not just one axle moves.
Also I checked the voltages and all seems OK.
To find out if there ist just a basic funktion, i startet a new config with the wizard. 
After setting up the MESA 7i96s (IP 10.10.10.10), opend up the test-movement-mask, activating the axle, i tried to move the axle, but nothing. (The HAL-Scope shows a feedrate like it should do)
I Tried this for X, Y and Z but nothing!

So at this moment I`m wondering if there is a problem with the MESA Card.
Is there someone who had a similar issue and could give me a tip.
By the way, if I move the axles by hand, all the linear-Encoders at the 7i96S works fine.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Tommy,
Scaling was wrong...
My number was per seconds in my mind not per minute so 60 time slower !

Thanks

So sieht meine Steuerung mit EtherCat aus. Servos von Lichuan über AliExpress und StepperOnline über deren Website gekauft. Nutzen alle das cia402 Profil, lassen sich also identisch ansprechen. Einzig die vid (Vendor ID) und pid (Product ID) sind anders, müssen also in der ethercat-conf.xml angepasst werden. Man kann die Treiber meines Wissens entweder direkt am Gerät einstellen oder über die ethercat-conf.xml mit SDOs. Letzteres habe ich aber noch nicht ausprobiert. 

Als IO nutze ich Beckhoff Module (EL1018, EL1008 und EL2008 sowie Potentialverteilermodule) weil ich das besser finde als die IO Pins der Motortreiber zu nutzen. Brauche eh mehr als die Treiber bieten. 

Als LinuxCNC Rechner und EtherCat Master läuft ein Raspberry Pi5 8GB. Das größte Problem hatte ich mit EMV, EtherCat scheint deutlich anfälliger zu sein als was ich von Profinet auf der Arbeit gewöhnt bin. Deshalb habe ich im mittleren Kanal einen geerdeten Metallsteg eingesetzt, so scheinen die Probleme behoben zu sein. War leider im Platz etwas begrenzt, sonst hätte ich das Schütz -Q1 nicht direkt unter die IO-Module gepackt. 

Hi Rod,

Sorry for the late reply — I was traveling with my family and only catching up now.

Thanks for the work you’ve been doing on the installer and the RT tuning side. That’s really valuable and definitely helps lower the barrier for people getting started with EtherCAT on LinuxCNC.

Thanks! ( I haven't done it yet. )

My progress is...

I found ( in "ethercat slaves" command response ) that one servo drive version was 1.07, and anotehr was 2.09 in 3axis. But I have orderd  them recently at the same time.

Yaskawa support person said, this version is ESI version ( in servo driver ? ), but I haven't send ESI file to slaves as far as I remember.
Their suggestion is to use the same ESI file, and sent me the link of the latest ESI file for Sigma X.

How do I apply the latest ESI file to IgH Master and slaves?
I googled it and ask AI how to do it, but I couldn't get the answer for IgH master.

Thanks, I will use this.
I did have to install the non-free version of unrar before I could successfully open the rar archive, unrar-free kept giving up with errors. Attached a zipped version for convenience.

Thank you.
Should we make this "sticky"?
We would appreciate feedback on this.

Looks nice, thank you.

I want to use torque homing ....

Is that where the motor moves till it hits a hard stop to home?
Sorry i can not help more, but no experience with EtherCAT, yet.
