Thank you very much for the help! I feel a bit lame for not realizing that you could only have one postgui_halfile. That has solved that issue.

As for the bad character issue, yes (abort, aborting) does trigger that error but only once instead of twice like an e-stop would.

Can you tell me what the name of the factory firmware is (.bin)?

I want to start all over again.

Also, is there somewhere that explains the difference between a .bin, .bit and .pin files?

Thank you,

Final update on the topic:
a replacement 7i84 just arrived and I connected it in the same way. With the new card all inputs and outputs are working properly. I can see the card in halshow and it just works

I will try to get my xml posted here tomorrow
the ECR86 say version 202!?
I started of by using rodw file he suggested
didn'work
after tried the ECR60 and did the modparameter stuff
afer tried the ECR86 and did the modparameter stuff
so far i only get errors
i believe you are at least 1 level up so i was hoping you could help

Never mind, I see the issue here. I believe the root problem is that even though I clicked "CLEAR", it is attempting to load the file I had open prior to clicking CLEAR after the single cut is over, which may or may not be out of bounds. It shouldn't do that, I will look into what got screwed up and push a fix ASAP.

SU 27?

it's you in the F16? small cockpit so im not sure F18 or F16 ...

did read almost half of the linuxcnc documentation and i didn't see anything that would answer my question ... are there basic rules / commands to start from in linuxcnc-ethercat....
I have been tru all this shite 20+years ago when i tried to get a twincat controlled plc to work... doesn't look like the information base to get stuff working has improved... digging thru the twincat2 information was a pain in the ass... trying to find answers in this forum ... vage information

That's probably expected.

You have about a 50% chance of an initial
runaway because the feedback direction is
wrong, that is you have positive feedback = runaway
rather than negative feedback = position control.

If the encoder direction is correct, you fix this by
changing the sign of the PWM scale.

Uhhhh, I think you’ve hit the nail on the head… How embarrassing…The 7i84 is powered by a 24V field power, but it's connected to a completely separate 24V rail (24V Logic, marked in red), while the relay board is connected to a different 24V source (marked in blue) with no common ground between them. I’ll fix that tomorrow. Thank you!

EDIT: Yes, that was the issue. Now the coolant pump is working. And after fixing a small mistake in my hal the spindle is now also starting. Now only the gear train remains (and the fourth axis...)

I have two identical PCs, same version (latest 2.9.3) of LinuxCNC, same F310.  One worked immediately - on the other, the F310 shows from lsusb (the output is identical on the first PC). But HAL config does not show the input pins on the second one.

I didn't do anything different in the installs.

Both are set to X mode

thank you, I hadn't noticed that was missing.

now, when activating the drivers, the motor goes into Z+ at high speed.
 

Hi...new to linuxcnc...just got up and running but now am looking to set up panel that shows 9 axis that can be jogged... am using 7i96s mesa with firmware that supports 9 axis but am lost as to configure panel through pncconf..??

Thanks for any help!!

Hello my friends, I made some changes to create some pins in the halui.cc file that I acquired on github, but I have no idea how to recompile it so that the changes are children, could anyone help me? Maybe give a step-by-step guide on how I can recompile. thank you in advance

The easiest fix is to install go -- `sudo apt install golang` will probably do the trick. Alternately, you can just ignore it, as it's only needed for some tools, not for the core of LCEC. You could even remove `lcec_configgen` from the `user:` target around line 83 in src/Makefile, plus the bit in `install-user` where it's installed, around line 92.
