Hi,
hier kannst du bei Autodesk ein Standard PP herunterladen, der bietet schon einmal ne gute Basis, mit diversen Zyklen die schon integriert sind.

I have my new 7i96s and my machine is - almost - ready to be powered up. As I run pncconf, I am looking for a little handholding to make sure I get the entries right. I have four Teknic Clearpath SDSK CPM-SDSK-3411S-ELS, one on each axis, with a paired Y gantry, found here: teknic.com/model-info/CPM-SDSK-3411S-ELS/ . All are powered by an IPC-5 75v power supply. I have a second ps in case one isn't enough, but I think it is.

The maximum acceleration I calculated as 49800 mm/sec^2 is WORLDS away from the default 750, and pncconf doesn't allow more than 10000. That's just the tip of the iceberg! I can't be the first person to use Clearpath SDSK servos on a LinuxCNC machine; where can I find examples of settings someone else has already proven out?

Additionally, I think I have the wiring correct for HLFB, aka drive alarm, but I am still in pncconf and I don't even know how to assign the pins there. The only options that seemed like they would make any sense were "digital in 0", and so on. Does that sound right? If not, what should I use?

Looks  abit too surgically clean. Perhaps something like this?

 

looks like you have the order of the read_all and write_all wrong.(lcec should be first and last) but not sure if that's what has broken it.

hello
base period = 100 000
servo period = 1 000 000


steplen = 1
step space = 0
scale is 10

my one rotation is 10mm

so that scale*1 rotation is 100 pulse
i need to make >500 pulses for one rotation

if i make 100 scale
the speed is going down and linuxcnc give me following 0 error(axis x following error)

My guess is from these lines in pstat.py:

most every file uses SHAREDIR as a base.

If you open a terminal and type:
printenv LINUXCNC_HOME
does it return anything?

Somehow Qtvcp thinks that linuxcnc is installed rather then RIP.

 

 Hello, I'm currently retrofitting a cnc router that I build a couple years ago and switching to EtherCAT AC servos.

The specific model is StepperOnline A6 400watt.At the moment, I'm trying to get one drive up and working and not having luck getting a motor turning.I installed a fresh copy of LinuxCNC 2.9.3 per the sticky by RodW and that side of it is working fine.
I'm also able to see the slave, pdos, etc by using the ethercat command in the terminal.My problem is I can't get the drive to go into operation mode and hold/turn the motor.It goes through init mode but stays on preop mode.

I've attached the relevant files (hopefully) here if someone can help?Thanks!

5i20 card

Search the Debian forums, should be plenty of results there.
From what i recall, that is always graphic card related, probably older blacklisted 915 or 945 models.
Try an old graphic card, preferably not NVIDIA as they tend to mess the latency badly.
Or use the older version of LinuxCNC ISO, and you really should if you plan to use the parallel port, try Wheezy version.

What Mesa card ??????????????????????????????????????????????

How do I add my board to PcConfig. It’s not listed in the dropdown menu.
I see there is support software on the product page.
A pop up window appeared saying to add files to hm2 folder but I can’t find that?
 

I suppose I hit some different circumstances since I'm trying to do something with a touchscreen rather than something like Axis, couple of things I ran across.....

I don't even bother adding a MenuBar, but I would like to use a pushbutton to open halshow, etc....Any way to do that?

I also noticed there's no good binary indicators in qt5's standard set of widgets, like LEDs or even a button that changes appearance on input. The only thing I've found is hal labels, but even then I think they are only actually good for displaying numeric values. If set to "bit" type input, they just display true or false. I don't see any way to make a text string appear or disappear at least. Looking for something that can just indicate a fault.

If something like this is already there just point it out, I'm good at missing things.

Sure, I have many of them.......but that's not the point.

There are very few "open-source" things that actually wind up being cheaper than the cheaper thing it's replacing.....but I can't run a DMM off of Smart Serial. The 2 options on a standard drive are (not really) RS232, step+direction, and analog.....but the analog input has issues on these.  Modbus/rs485 is a custom drive.

There you go: github.com/jstjst
But after looking at the prices for the DMM servo drives, I think they are in the same price range (if not cheaper) then a stmbl
