IndicatorMixin is not meant to be used directly. It is 'mixed in' with another button widget such as Qtvcp's PushButton widget or IndicatedPushButton widget

First hint is here:
The GPIO line PIN3 can not be found.

PIN3 isn't a name of a pin, pins are named as per man page.

the config im tryng to use works in version 2.9.4, tomorow i will post my config here,

Have a look at Fanuc style numbered programs M98 Pn Ln

And it was great to see an Aussie take the win in the Moto2 at the British GP.
I feel sorry for Dixon, no Binder to blame for his performance.

Mine were 10 pound poms.

And to be sure we're quite proud of Australia being built by convicts.

Insult an Aussie and they'll take on as a badge of honour, Rats of Tobruk is an example, something the OP fails to understand, tho the little weasel hasn't bothered to reply.

Index to major thread, there's a section regarding your query with an example for a simple 3 axis machine that works.

I would like to call a subroutine some arbitrary number of times.  Some gCode variants support M91 Psubroutline Lcount.  But not linuxCNC.  Any suggestions how to do this?  I do not need anything as fancy as a while loop.  Juist count executions.

Yeah, i might have shot from the hip there ...

Moved to "user exchange" .

Adjusted motor tuning, its fine now. moves and is happy. Still need to tweak the y a little.

It does seem that tuning in the omron software is not *quite* the same as running under position control. Didn't lose anything, just small tweaks. X was the howling one and it still tracks within 3 microns during acceleration. The Y has 2 microns lad in straight motion and 6 during accel. Bigger motor and MUCH more mass. Just trying to keep it "stiff" as possible. Anything under 10 microns during accel is a win. (this machine does high speed surfacing).

Anyhow, break time, I'm very happy. thanks for all the uh.. moral support? hahah. I get frustrated a lot when the instructions are missing big blocks of important information. I think I need to write a "ethercat setup for dummies" post so other people can follow something a bit more straight forward. The "implied prior knowledge" is what really turns people away from linuxcnc in general.

You can go into halshow and look at some of the cia402.x.stat pins like if stat_op_enabled is set.
The drive needs to be in op_enabled to start moving. It should be just to jog and it should move.
You have the position commanded and actual and more there to get the state of the drive.

Yeah, later today I'm gonna reconnect the omron software and see what's up. its possible they got wiped somehow, but seems unlikely.

I don't really thing there's anything on the linuxcnc side that could be at fault though, its not even commanding a movement yet, just enabling the drives.

Yes, I am using interpolated position (which is very precise with the hardware generated "encoder' signals)
