Hello,

Iam using EK1100 coupler and EL1008 for inputs and EL2008 to outputs, i try make in .hal file the configuration to use external buttons for Start and Emergency, how i can make in .hal file to link the rights io's ins .hal file.

Thanks for the help. 

If you are using stepconf, just change the GUI dropdown and save changes.

(Make a copy of config first just in case)

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Perhaps try this:

Save your config files somewhere very safe.

Open your PC and remove all unnecessary hardware (except the GPU).

Reinstall LinuxCNC from the official ISO. (The latest version, or perhaps some earlier version).

Set CPU governor to performance.

Run latency test.

See if latency is improved.

Changing the scaling govenor to performance reduced my latency a noticable amount.

Solved need editing txt to upload to NVEM with DMA options, but for make signals need oscilloscope and function generator.

I regret to inform you, but maybe a better closing statement would be - "and there is almost no chance it starts up. A starting point"

Attached is the LinuxCNC Errors report that comes from trying to run the config with "DISPLAY = qtvcp qtdragon". The forum will not let me put the error in the code quotes as it thinks it's spam being posted. Any suggestions as to what needs to be done to start to fix the mess?

But of course!

This config if you push start and it is in manual mode changes to auto automatically and runs the code.
How to do it not change to auto automatically?
I have changed this
to this

but continues to run the program even it is in manual mode.

Also this must uncommented or not ?

ok, i have tried editing the code to change it to R. after many errors finally it worked..

Thanks

 

and the results


 

thank you very much
i loaded the new firmware and everything works.
in the folder that i downloaded from the official mesanet site i saw that there are many .bit files
is there a way to know what the various configurations do?
i searched around a bit but i didn't find anything...
ciao

I tried several times even asking for help to solve the latency problems even by changing the video card.
I opened a post here:
forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...st-ambiguous-results
So I decided to do it my way and not Debian's way.
www.kernel.org/
I have always used Debian but as always this time I will have to compile the kernel by hand, hoping that there are not too many changes since the last time I did it, but I doubt it.

Can anyone please tell me which kernel is best for RT?
Thanks a lot.

 

Hello Everyone,
I have a question about using 2 interfaces on the same computer.
Right now I have my milling machine and it works on is axis 2.8.2 running on linux mint 19.3
But I really want to try Probe Basic but I don't want to ruin whats already working, can I
Install the latest version of Linuxcnc and Probe Basic and go back and forth between the two
to see if I can get it working on Probe Basic without deleting axis 2.8.2?
Thanks Mike

Not as it is. It would have to be added to this part of the code (unfortunately I'm rather busy with other things right now):

 

What is the status of blendercam ?

You can read the current firmware pinout and change the installed firmware with mesaflash

something like:

sudo mesaflash --device 7i90hd --epp --addr 0x378 --readhmid

To read the currents firmwares pinout.

or

sudo mesaflash --device 7i90hd --epp --addr 0x378 --write 7i90_epp_svst8_12_2x7i47.bit

To change the firmware to 7i90_epp_svst8_12_2x7i47.bit
