Wie? Was? Warrum?

Looking at your .ui file it seems that you have a 'HAL_Table' inside a 'HAL_HideTable' object:
 

Which would explain why this would make your panel disappear (because it is actually controlling the 'HAL_HideTable' object):

And also why commenting it out, 
Shows an inactive panel because 'HAL_Table' (with id=schalter)) is not set True by any signal.
 

2. start your config from a terminal ($ linuxcnc) and check output for clues

3. I would recommend using a simple texteditor to edit the files not a word processor like the one in your screen shot.
Ok
 

    Hallo, 

das booten dauert lange, kann man das ändern?

How does your PC communicate with the machine?

If it connects via parallel port, use StepConf.

If you use a MESA card, use PNCConf, though it is quite posssible not all boards are supported 100%.

In my experience, ChatGPT varies from super correct and intellijent to totally wrong and stupid.

Hi ,

I am looking for some help with this drive. I had one go bad and trying to get a new one up and running.
If someone can help with this drive please let me know.Had a drive go bad and got a new one on ebay and cant get it to act right.

Thanks,

Bob


 

Great !
Can I use it for RDK X5 ?

How was the result of latency test of Servo Thread ? (X3 and X5)

Hello,

we had a longish discussion about using an arduino for this task; here:

www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/threads...rduino-idexer.35108/

and here:

www.homemodelenginemachinist.com/threads...e-for-dummies.26744/

Be careful with rounding errors and backlash, but for simple indexing this does work fine.

With an Arduino and stepper that is rel. slow, but I would prefer it over a linux CNC system, because it "stand alone" and cheap and easy to build.
The second link is good for the basic setup and wiring description. 
The first link dives into the rounding error explanation. 

Good luck.

Hi there. Any chance you still have your ini or HAL?

The whole config is attached on the post above yours, download and unzip.

Awesome!!!

Hi GuiHue,

that sounds really interesting!
I’m using three 1 kW Delta B3M servos on my machine and would like to make the system fully closed-loop by adding linear encoders to the axes. I’m still quite new to LinuxCNC and currently trying to understand how to build my machine configuration file and how to connect all the inputs and outputs from the Beckhoff DI/DO modules. My previous controller was an EDING CNC760 with Step/Puls and no encoder support...

What should I pay special attention to, and where would you recommend I start?
Also, which encoders are you using on your axes?

Best regards,
Michael

Since I had to use PyQt to work around a bug with vtk Timer I added a small optional UI: 

 

 

Regarding Intel ECI, it seems Intel offers the IgH Ethercat master under their ECI umbrella.
We have nothing to do with that.

There is not one linuxcnc system. The linuxcnc system is always tailor-made to fit the machine.
You piece together a number of components for kinematics, drive control, io, gui etc
and connect them together into a working linuxcnc system.
This is done in the hal file. Components are loaded, pins are connected or given values.
Pins are the basic connection points in and out of a component.

lcec (linuxcnc ethercat component) is the component that connects pins to ethercat pdos.
lcec reads and writes data from the ethercat device every servo cycle (like every 1 ms)
and exchanges the data with the connected components.
