I wouldn't use the 50:1 voltage divider. a THCAD5 with a 5 volt full scale would be more suited to use with it. Instead just calibrate the THCAD to read 200 to 300 volts full scale with a resistor.

Hey guys, I'm struggling. I am beyond frustrated with trying to get Probe Basic to launch fully. I have been trying to get this to work since a few days before Christmas. 

Here is what I know. 
I can launch the Dev with the sim on the PC. 
I figured out that one of my issues was the screen size. I now have a compatible screen installed. 
I have reinstalled the bookworm iso and followed the instructions several times.
I have cleaned and wiped the system at least 6 times and always come back to an error launching.
i was having the issue of probe basic not launching due to a ini dual hal file error but after a wipe and reinstall and apt repair it seems to have gone away.  

I am still getting can not start display probe basic. I have gone through the configs several times and started fresh with my ini and hal files and still can not get it to launch via Linux CNC launcher with my setup files. 

Any advice? I would greatly appreciate it.

I have a Mesa 7i96s card with a THCAD - 10. Do I need a voltage divider for this? I purchased two resistors - 2.4M OHM 1/2W 1% AXIA ( digikey ) as well as a 50:1 voltage divider ( CNCpc ). Do I need both? 

I have got this modbus 16 I/O module 485io.com/io-isolation-protection-board-...relay-led-p-373.html
This is the manual 485io.com/eletechsup/N4D3E16-1.rar

I have used this config to mb2hal and i can read in hal all 16 inputs with successBut i can't write 16 outputs.
How can make it to work ?
How can i send custom command with mb2hal like this?
(slave address)0x01 (function)0x06 (number of output)0x0001 (command)0x05 (delay time)0x00 (2Bytes CRC)

There was nothing else printed in the terminal after the code change?

Can you give more background? Has this ever worked?

I installed the new deb from releases but it doesn't seem to be adding anything new. I don't have qabstractproperties on the pushbutton whether I set it inside the stacked widget or not. Do I have to do anything special when upgrading flexgui?

Yes what is there is 2.9.2.
Downloaded 2.9.3 and it makes a huge difference for me on the Pi 5.
I wasn't getting 1080p on the display and axis was always clipped and wouldn't show me the status area at the bottom of the screen.
Switched to the newer build and I've got 1080p and can see the full screen.

Thanks!

I think so but it seems that 2.9.3 may not be  on the downloads page.

This is not so much about ethercat but about how to connect pins in hal.
Since you are in halshow, go and find the pins of the EL2809 there. It may be under lcec.0. What number or name depends on your ethercat-conf.xml
Then, when you have the pin name of the output where the led is, you enter in your machine.hal (using the actual pin name)

Are the images you post here the same ones that are on the Linuxcnc download pages for the RPi's?

Thank you

Weird. I tried it as you wrote, with just the G64/G4 on one line (other commands removed). I still get the error. I'm using Axis 2.8.4-76-g6082f1df7.

Aciera, I will try the subroutine and report back when I get a chance.

It works for me in master branch on the axis_mm sim using f-engrave 1.75
 

I get the same error as I initially reported. 

It's also reporting:

Thanks Cakeslob I entered some of your hal file in mine for the spindle rpm. The spindle seems to be working a lot smoother than before. I also have the rpm displaying now.
Iv ordered a Chinese clone differential line encoder. So I'll single end it with an AM26ls32 IC. Hopefully that will get rid of the noise

gah. yes, i got those backwards.
