Thank you cake! That actually cleared things up more than a little. I managed to figured out what that .not was for on the end so maybe that's a plus.

Still have the Emergency Stop button on Axis freezing after a trigger and neither mouse or [F1] will reset it. I am thinking that I had read some posts back that someone else was experiencing the same thing and was thinking it was Axis related?

Not letting that stop me from moving forward and next comes the probe. If I were to take a SWAG at it, how close does this come?

Am I on the right track?

50 hz is inferior to 60Hz b/c transformers, motors, etc. need to be bigger and more expensive.

Was this from chatGPT?
The only valid difference is the induction motors spin faster at 60Hz, everything else is pretty much irrelevant.

Where would I need to go to change the scale

That's what the cia402 component does. You have already set cia402.0.csp-mode to 1 in the hal file.
You can go into halshow and find the pin lcec.0.X.target-position and lcec.0.X.actual-position.
The difference between them is the following error and one always accepts some error but when it becomes too large lcnc stops.
You have the cia402.0.pos-scale to play with. The manual should say how many "steps" per revolution it uses, or how to found out. Calculate how many steps per axis unit (mm?) you have (thread pitch).

However I looked at your ethercat-conf.xml. You got to remove those pdos from syncmanager 0 and 1, actually remove sm0 and sm1 completely and only use those in sm2 and sm3.
Like this


Keep dccconf line and all other lines. If I made a type above I hope you can correct it.

Thank you very much for your interest.
Something like this happened to someone else and it was resolved as you said, but how can I close it?

Turn off eoe    ???????????????

Mr. Hakan, I followed your posts a lot and I have come a long way.

your first question  (  I tried to try the xml in this video but it gives an error )

new 6axis DC-Motor Controller

Hi Andy, I have machines with Axor MicroSpeed ​​MCS-60-10/20 and HDT Colibri CB060 10/20 servo drives, among others, that have analog and PWM interfaces. According to the datasheets, they explain that they have some solder jumpers that can be connected to switch between interfaces, since they have PWM and analog. I've actually tried everything but I can't change the interface.
These servo drives operate up to 60V VDC, and the VDC motor machines for this voltage also have power supplies based on transformers, rectifiers, and fairly expensive capacitors that I could use and wouldn't have to change.
If you have any information on how to change these interfaces on the driver itself, that would be great. The datasheets for both brands specify that there is a solder jumper (example: K# nomenclature) to make this change, but when you look at the PCB, you find all the jumpers except that K#. Hahaha, the components come without identification, for a change, etc. It's also always fun to write a driver for a new module, in case it doesn't exist of course, thanks for the ideas and greetings

Yes, the eStop works as it should. By MPG, I mean a normal external handwheel with a selector switch for the axes, not the NV MPG.

Ok great, so

DarkPheonix - good for now and stepping?

Warning: Spoiler!

aDm1N - you have the Estop behavior working properly with that code then? If yes, Spyder, refer to his example.
re- MPG , here is the config for MPG, un-comment the line from your ini file, and make sure the component is installed. This is for the NVMPG that can come with the board with the screen. If you are talking about a separate MPG, we can copy the same with a few changes.
github.com/scottalford75/Remora-RT1052-c...ic/remora-nv-mpg.hal

re- C axis and encoder - this is more involved, lets circle back to this one

Spyder, yes there will be some conflicting line, the 3 lines at the top of the hal file needed modification, but I think you figured it out. "net remote-estp " check out the linuxcnc page on hal, but the nets are names that you create, so there wont be a remote-estp pin in the linuxcnc documents, and yes the => and <= denote signal direction,
so for example the new net "remote-estp" is connecting the linuxcnc pin "estop-latch.0.fault-in" to the remora pin "remora.input.04"
and the remora pin is going to the latch.0.fault-in pin

 
 

There is only one problem when you use the directional buttons to move the axes, the movement is strange, not responsive, slow to start, and sometimes that movement remains in memory, after an estop, the car exiting the estop starts turning again by itself or makes strange movements.!! but gcode work fine! i need study the problem! I was able to get it working using a function generator and an osciloscope.

According to the manual, parameter 2301 indicates open/closed loop and is set to open loop:

ethercat upload -p 0 -t int16 0x2301 0
0x0001 1

The shafts make no motion at all, the velocity display changes to 200 for an instant and then back to zero.  I can easily turn the motor shafts 

It looks like the operation mode is not set. The manual says to use CSP mode by setting 6060 to 8, then set 6040 to 0x6, 0x7, and 0xf in sequence

ethercat upload -p 0 -t int8 0x6060 0
0x00 0
ethercat download -p 0 -t int8 0x6060 0 8
ethercat upload -p 0 -t int8 0x6060 0
0x00 0

so the value is not being set via ethercat. How should I do this?

You will not be helped by knowing command 110.
It's the following error on the line above one need to react on.

They move a tiny tiny bit or not at all? Does the shaft stop free rotation?
Anyway, the drives are closed loop drives, you need to set them to open loop mode so they ignore the input from the non-existent encoder on the motors.
I searched briefly for a manual but couldn't find one - Lichuan CL3-E57H?
So you have to look in the manual, or perhaps there is a configuration software with it, I saw comments that suggests that. Turn of closed loop, enable open loop.
Hopefully it is that easy.
 

RPI5 with a 7i96, and after some time I get a solid red INIT light on the mesa card, and obviously at that point have to reset the card to continue.

If the init light turns on when LinuxCNC is running, (with any Mesa Ethernet FPGA card)
it means you have a watchdog fault, likely because communications have been lost
for longer than the watchdog timeout setting. This is likely due to a network latency issue.
No reset is needed, though LinuxCNC will have to be restarted.

Can you enter in MDI
