Beckhoff Problem with Communication (TwinCAT, LinuxCNC)

Category: EtherCAT

Ive already tried it on 3 different ways now,

1. A youtube Video from Talla82 (looked awsome how easy it would be....)
2. with the Instructions from you (Forum) @rodw
3. ChatGPT whats kind of ... depressing and for sure wont work

I can hang you the current lcec.conf whitch is the setup for my EK1100 hopefully you can help me correct it

Ethercat installation from repositories - how to step by step

Category: EtherCAT

apt depends ethercat-dkms 
ethercat-dkms
  Hängt ab von: dkms (>= 2.1.0.0)
  Hängt ab von: <libtool>
  Hängt ab von: <autoconf>
  Hängt ab von: <autoconf-archive>
  Hängt ab von: <automake>
  Hängt ab von: pkg-config
    pkgconf
bf20@BF20:~$ apt policy libtool
libtool:
  Installiert:           (keine)
  Installationskandidat: (keine)
  Versionstabelle:
hängt ab von means depends on
keine means none

unfortunatly i did do the sudo apt update already that would be to easy :)
just tried again and tried the build essentials afterwards it tells me it is already the newest version 12.9


should I do a reinstall with the english language? It seems od to me that this would depend on the language.

Aufschaukeln mit JMC iHSS60-36-30-21-38 in Verbindung mit Linear Encodern

Category: Deutsch

Added this to the link i posted here to better explain what can be used :
-This CAN be used for closed loop steppers with encoders wired to their drives and ADDED encoders or glass scales
Thank you for reminding me.
Danke schon.

The link i posted, explicitly mentions making the machine work without encoder feedback to LinuxCNC first, so enable the stepgen feedback in the hal file and omit the encoder feedback, test the machine, set the scaling correctly, and only after getting this done activate the encoder feedback and omit the stepgen feedback.
Closed loop stepers when loop is closed on the drives are viewed as normal open loop steppers from LinuxCNC.
So yes, it should work with your drives, just make sure they work properly in open loop mode to LinuxCNC.

Did you do
sudo apt update
before
sudo apt install build-essential
?

The GPIO pins/ parameters are not really useful except on the
7I95T's parallel expansion connector (P1)

raw inmux or inm inputs are unfiltered ( not debounced )

man hostmot2 for inmux details ( search for inmux )

Ah i see ok.
Pins of the FPGA Chip i asume.
So basicly this would be the name of one of the pins ( hm2_7i95.0.inmux.00.input-00  ....input-23)
is there something different to this pin (hm2_7i95.0.inmux.00.raw-input-00) ?


And those are basicly those that i can use as input or output
hm2_7i95.0.gpio.041.in
hm2_7i95.0.gpio.041.in_not (What does that mean)
hm2_7i95.0.gpio.041.out


Sorry for asking so many questions

Ethercat installation from repositories - how to step by step

Category: EtherCAT

Try
apt depends ethercat-dkms
apt policy libtool


For me is says it can find libtool at 
 *** 2.5.4-4 500
        500 deb.debian.org/debian trixie/main amd64 Packages

But I'm on trixie so not identical.

Mesaflash shows only physical pins on the FPGA

The 7I95T uses multiplexing to reduce the number  of external connections,
so there are many more TB pins than FPGA pins. Also much of the I/O
is differential so have 2 TB pins per FPGA pin.

One example of this multiplexing is the isolated inputs. The 7I95T has
24 isolated inputs but these use only 6 FPGA pins to access.

Ok makes sense.
Could you explain to me why mesa flash is showing so little pins, because from what i can read i have the areas TB1-4 but i dont have the rest (TB5+6).
Do those usualy show or is that normal, may ii have made a mistake at some point?

Is there any LinuxCNC expereinced user from Warsaw (Poland)

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I am not experienced with Linux in general, as I have literally NO experience with this system.

Also I am not very comfortable with electronics,
I have some problems with setting up my machine and controller.
And I have very limited time to attend those.

So I thought that if there is someone experienced close perhaps I could get some first hand help on some contract basis.

That link says modbus. also the price is more than 3 full ethercat ac servo kits.

But still neat.
 

You have to check the part number for ethercat (ECX=ethercat)

If the scaling is correct, FF1 must be 1.0

I would lower the P term (till it no longer oscillates), raise the ferror limits
 And the plot the following error (and commanded velocity) to get an idea of
what is happening.

Another guess is that the drive responds too slowly to step commands
(this may be a tunable feature)

ISEL CNC/IMC4 programming language

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Because I need G-Code support may be the best solution would be to get rid of my IMC4 controller and build up a new hardware which is supported by linuxCNC (only reuse the mechanics and motors, but this is high effort),

this is the solution to use linuxcnc
