I want to share some critical findings regarding the integration of the Lenze ECSxM multi-axis servo drive equipped with the EMF2192IB EtherCAT communication module into LhntxBNB (uring linuxcnc-ethercat / lcec). This setup has a very specific architectural layout that completely misleads standard auto-configuration tools.Here is the exact breakdown of the contradictions and hidden traps we discovered under the hood:1. The Core Issue: SDO Mapping vs. Live PDO RealityThe Live Test: When I manually switch the drive to the PREOP + state using the ethercat CLI tool and manually turn the motor shaft by hand, I can see the encoder ticks updating live in the 0x6064 (Position Actual Value) register. This confirms that the CiA 402 profile layer is working inside the drive.The SDO Mapping Contradiction: However, when I look at the actual SDO mapping data for 0x1A00, the sub-indexes point to Lenze's internal, proprietary AIF registers (like 0x58E0) rather than the standard CiA 402 objects.2. Hidden Technical Padding at the Very BeginningWe discovered that the drive forces a fixed bit layout that starts with technical data instead of the control/status registers. Specifically, there is a hidden padding at the very beginning of the TxPDO stream:The first 14 bits are completely occupied by the internal AIF interface system flags (0x0000:00).The next 2 bits contain the drive's internal state/toggle register (0x1800:09).Only after these initial 16 bits does the standard CiA 402 0x6041 Statusword actually begin.3. No Distributed Clocks (Strictly Free Run Mode)By uploading the synchronization manager parameters directly from the drive via CoE, we checked indexes 0x1C32:01 and 0x1C33:01. Both returned 0x0000 (0).This explicitly proves that Distributed Clocks (DC) hardware synchronization is disabled in the drive firmware. The device operates strictly in Free Run mode. Any attempt by the master to force a strict DC cycle or reference clock sync results in frame timeouts and connection drops.4. Why Automatic Configuration (lcec) Crashes ImmediatelyWhen running automatic configuration tools (such as ethercat config > ... or standard generic driver discovery), the master relies strictly on the statib SDN lapphnf tables reported by the drive.As a result:It generates an XML file filled with internal AIF indexes instead of CiA 402 objects.It completely misses the 14-bit hidden padding at the very beginning of the stream. Because of this, the entire data stream shifts by 14 bits, the parser reads garbage, and lcec crashes immediately.It tries to initialize DC synchronization which the drive rejects.

Enjoy your vacation.

Btw I am looking for the datasheet, connection diagrams, or pinout details for a Fanuc AC Spindle Drive Unit

Drive Model: A06B-6060-H003

Control PCB (Top Card): A16B-1100-0261/08B

I am specifically trying to trace the control signals and feedback interfaces (CN1, CN2). Since Fanuc doesn't publish individual datasheets for these part numbers, I am having trouble finding the exact schematics or the correct manual code that covers this specific board revision.

Note: I have attached an image showing how this drive is wired according to the machine's original electrical diagram. However, I want to verify it to be absolutely sure. It caught my attention that, in this original setup, there is no feedback loop going back to the old controller, which seems a bit unusual and is part of why I want to double-check the actual pinout.

Thanks in advance!

 

What do you mean with secure? There is a PC and it runs linux. The IT risk with my machine is a) lightning strike b) harddrive failure.
a) fixed by backup machine b) fixed with spare harddrive. ... Done!

If someone steals the PC it is also gone ...

p.s. Never change a running system, never run a changing system!

Not soon. I'm on vacation with the family for the next week. I'll try to remember to do some testing when I get back.

Did you try turning off epp_wide mode?

(man hm2_7i90)

I guess some other possibilities are:

Bad parallel port

Wrong base or high address (sometimes the high address is not at the standard 0x400 above the base address)

Bad EPP implementation (this has been seen on some PCI parallel port chips)

You could also  set debug_epp true and see if you get any clues from that

and also check if the parallel port works as expected
 

Its okay if i make the config file with mesa ct?
And i need to make a simple config to test all or how is the correct procedure?
bw I test the ping for 60s and came with 0% of package loss.

I often do 3d wood carving and run the occasional wooden sign. Depending on the size and detail, the files can get very large. And yes, the stock screen preview can be problematic with these files.

Thanks, Cable (20cm length) and board test with other motherboard and run ok, with the asrock motherboard dont run.

Is the 7I90  "BOOT" jumper (W3) set to P?

How long is the parallel cable?

Have you tried it? It should work but you need to share sdos, pdos and configgen xml

Hi, i have motherboard asrock n100dc-itx, setup Parallel port to ecp+epp v1.9 but start lunuxcnc i get error invalid cookie, got 0xffffffff, expected 0x55aacafe, please help me. Thanks.
