It wouldn't have anything to do with jaw lift when tightening the vice ?
Does the fixture support the stock fully along the side that is contact or have you allowed for a "hollow" in the middle of the design of the part and fixture allows for this.

I'll need your advice regarding setting up Ethercat repos Rod, and whether a 6.12.34 kernel is supported. As I kept to the RPi rt kernel from their repo. And one kernel supports both the 4 and 5.

I only found this recom dc-dc converter and bought it from tme.eu
www.tme.eu/en/details/rs3k-2424sz_h3/dc-dc-converters/recom/
I see that Mouser, Digikey, Farnell and those big ones have the item.
Can't find it on cheap places ebay, alix etc.

I'm not too sure if this may help
github.com/MichaIng/DietPi/issues/6577

The power saving feature shouldn't be kicking whilst there is traffic, but stranger things do happen. And I know the RPi is on a later kernel.
Actually that reminds me I'll have to talk to Rod about Ethercat repos for the new image.

I'm not good at electronics. i will try implement a hypersensing circuit from plasma-cnc-primer docs with yours schematic. similarly, without surgery in a long cable.

for ohmic sense i only have thcad-10. i have thcad-300 but i used it for THC in this plasma cutter with 1:1 devider.

I found almost all the components (FY0022 + FY0023 connector,24VDC >20A relay ). but i can't find Isolated dc-dc converter with on/off signal.

Hello,
i try to activate some glade functions. Therefore i use "gladevcp.table1 1" in my custom_postgui.hal.
In the attached file i deactivated "gladevcp.table1 1". Then you can see the light grey button/leds but you can´t use them. If activated you just see a blank site.

That one i have already tried but it did not help

Well, I don't have a pi with linuxcnc and only googled a bit.
forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=362866#p2229969 worth a try I guess if you haven't done so.
 

There was "A Maximum Limit + Home set" instead of "Z Maximum Limit + Home"

May be I have found least workaround and some glue what's wrong. I tested adding ethernet switch between my Raspberry Pi 5 and ETC60 Ethercat stepper controller. After adding this switch i have not got any synchronization errors or got Raspberry ethernet link up/down causing that error.

Because i have got same error between multiple tested Raspbelly Pi 4 and 5 boards and least three controller boxes having Rtlligent ETC60it cant be just a faulty unit but more common compatibility issue. Least adding switch is workaround fix.

My general experience from Linuxcnc / Ethercat / ECT60 is very positive. First I replaced always failing PC hardware with Raspberry Pi and PIO controlled steppers but I wanted better and Ethercat felt best choice. In beginning i needed to build everything from sources. This joint x motion error / synhcronization error was only unresolved issue and it took long time to find out that it was not caused by other factors like insufficient real time performance.Now when everything works and there is easy installation package i think that it will be my number one option. Next I will try Lichuan Ethercat servo and lets see is do I need switch between Lichuan ethervcat controller or not

First image I feel is suitable for testing.

Linuxcnc 2.9.7 is pulled from the Linuxcnc repos.

 

Thats pretty cool!

Use halscope to record, it catches every ms.
If I look at cia402 code the only reason I can see (but I might miss of course)
is that it does an auto fault-reset due to it receiving a fault code.
Halscope.
And thumb on e-stop.

OK, ill try that tomorrow.

First image I feel is suitable for testing.
After much frustration "the eye candy stuff" is sorted. Background was edited to the best of my "artistic" skills, and first attempt at inkscape, using a standard xfce background with a Linuxcnc logo found on forum member's KurtJacobson's git hub page. 
Splash screen artwork was found on the forum.
Artwork for the background of the Login screen was also found on the forum (robertspark I think was the poster)

If anyone is familar with the rights regarding the artwork it would be appreciated.

Linuxcnc 2.9.7 is pulled from the Linuxcnc repos.
There is still some software that could be pruned, cups is a major one which will also not have the various cups services running. Avahi is another that could be turned off.

Thanks to all who help and gave input

Cheers
Rob

Yup, that's what's not working as expected. It has zero effect on homing.

The section after that is what ill try that tomorrow. That hopefully at least will tell me if linuxcnc is causing the motion, or the drive.
