that mesaflash didn't work, just said [card_ip_address] was a bad command or something like that.
I think I might have a problem with the drive.
If I go to hal signals everything shows it works, but there is no output. I put a meter on the analog pins but I don't get any voltage. Im thinking there should be some voltage there when it is outputting.

Hi Klopp,

great project.
I have exactly the same lathe and the problem that the siemens control has an defect since today. Is it possible that you can share more details (electrical scheme, configuration files for mesa cards, ...) from your project so that it is possible for me to do the same.
 

it fit

used packages from this thread : forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...ng-rtai-debs-for-2-9

needed to add python 3.11 manually.

Thank you for the formula. I was able to verify that the mesa card is performing correctly.

I tried adding 49 ohms of resistance with no change in behavior. (No combo of my resistors quite matched up to 47.)

I will double check the manual of the drive to see what parameters might need changing.

Thank you.

Hello,
I would like to create translation files for Slovak, but I have been unsuccessfull so far.
This is my progress so far:
- I have Installed linuxcnc from image
- deinstalled the linuxcnc and installed as run in place
- I have configuration running with mesa 7i96s
- i was able to generate QM and TS files, and create links to compiled .qm files
- i have tryied to copy qm files directly to  /qtplasmac_4x3/languages/ /qtplasmac_9x16/languages/
- my version is QtPlasmaC v2.10-008.054

I have only edited the file in LINGUIST, do I need to do this step from howto?

 


Is there any obvious problem with my workflow?
thank you for help.

As you can see in the screenshot it's configured with fully preempted. Are you sure that this kernel parameter makes it real-time? Isn't this only to make it low latency when the kernel is configured is dynamic?

6.12 should have Preempt and it can be actvated with PREEMPT=FULL at GRUB.
Did not test on 6.12, on 6.11 it would ignore the above.

Well, I just read the notes in the routine and it seems that the recommended setup is quite different from what I suggested. So you'll probably want to follow the text in the ngc file.
I don't really know as I have never used it. But it certainly would not make sense to use 'T99 M6 G43' as I suggested as that would of course trigger the remapped routine.

I managed to get the addressing working for the spindle analogout but spindle doesn't work still. Keep plugging away.
Address is hm2_7i76e.0.7i77.0.3. I never thought of a three until I asked for a error report and it showed me the pins.

It's not only on Orange Pi, also on x86, both mainline Linux so it would be nice if you could set the title back again.

Changed the tittle to reflect the Orange PI in use.

I think the analog sserial channel will be 3

To check:

mesaflash --device 7i76e --addr [card_ip_address] --dbname2 7i77 --readhmid
 

I've compiled Linux 6.12 with Full real-time enabled, but somehow it's not detected as real-time by LinuxCNC. When I set the priority manually at RT via "sudo htop" and press I, the latency is low so I'm sure that it's compiled correctly.
Perhaps the detection method need to be changed?

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!

In the qt_auto_probe_tool.ngc script, I read the following:

The following workflow assumes using both a XYZ probe and a Z Toolsetter:
1 - Initial Setup: Before beginning the program, setup the Probe Tool as
having a zero z-offset in the tool table. (Non-zero tool lengths
for the probe tool can be made to work, but have multiple extra
steps required, and it is easy to have the tool offset interfere with
the remap coding and cause incorrect adjustments to your offsets.
This procedure assumes a zero length.)

It sounds as if the script documentation may be incorrect or perhaps previous codes changes have impacted the script?

Do you mean "G43 H99" ?? 
"G43.1" doesn't have an H parameter according to the online docs.

I have finally managed to get my 4 step/dir axis working, but still having trouble with the analog servo spindle drive. I get errors for addressing for the output
hm2_7i76e.0.7i77.0.1.analogout5 I have tried with .5. I have tried 7i77.0.2.
it keeps saying anything with that address doesn't exist,
