The above error is sorted out. But still joint following error

I downloaded the official image from here; www.linuxcnc.org/iso/rpi-5-debian-bookwo...25-01-27-0140.img.xz
Everything is ok, linuxcnc and ethercat master is working, 

I am trying to connect via VNC from remote, when I connected to 192.168.1.122:1 via VNC's password, its connecting but there is only blank gray screen,
I installed tightvncserver also, its same,
What should I do?

When machine comes out of estop it gives error "Remora FATAL ERROR [JASON Config]: Config file open failed (status=0xA2)".

Thank you very much for your help.

Have you made any further progress with this?

If someone can give me example config.txt and config files hal and ini for skr3 board, it would be really helpful. Or look at my config files for skr3.

Champion!

Hi tommylight!

We have tested the spinndle idea but the error happens regardless of if its on or off. We use and unshielded cable, let me test that out.

Most probably interference on the SPI wiring, so the first thing would be to make those wires very short, like 10cm short, or use shielded cable.
I would also not bother with the power supply as Octopus has pretty good regulators.
If the machine has a spindle, notice if the error occurs when the spindle is turned on.

we turn on the machine, and all normal

## Entering IDLE state

we open linux cnc and enable the machine

## Entering RUNNING state

x ammount of time passes and this happens

## Entering RESET state
Resetting rxBuffer

disable and we then get this printout

## Entering IDLE state

after that we can enable the machine but the time it takes for it to enter the reset state is much much shorter, like milliseconds

Hello again Scotta!

We've continued testing on the octopus board, we have gotten movement but it seems that the SPI communication with the board seems to keep dying. We got the serial output:

This last bit is where we are running into a wall, we are not sure what is causing this.
 

Consistent position errors after a long program could indicate a step timing
or polarity issue. Too low direction setup or hold times could cause a lost step
at reversals. Wrong step polarity can also cause this issue as stepping on the
trailing edge of the step pulse (rather then the expected leading edge) will
decrease the expected hold time.

It might be worth either inverting the step polarity or increasing the setup/hold times,
at least to see if it changes anything.

Some of the cheaper fixed bearing blocks are sold with non angular contact bearings, this is something to check.
Until you perform a backlash test, and yes this can manifest as repeatable, you can not rule out a mechanical issue.

Thanks Rod. I'll look into upgrading to 2.10.

Good to hear. I'd suggest slowing down the SPI comms like in the discussion above.
