What if you ran the updates sequentially from ver2.0, i know Tormach state that you don't need to but my logical thinking is if they up dated the code and firmware as they progressed then possibly by going straight to ver 2.10 could miss out some important upgrades. Has Tormach released a newer USB master key since ver 2.0. Since ver 2.6 ? they have changed their control boards to include a programmable logic device and not use the mesa version. That looks to me where the changes in firmware have taken place but that then begs the question if you had an older 1100 3 machine do the update scan for the mesa card/version and load the appropriate upgrade to the firmware so if you has say the plasma table with the newer control board the update can figure out the difference and load the option that closer matches the machine.

Then it seems to work. Good luck with the steppers.

I have not been able to test it yet, but with a multimeter I have verified that when I change the direction of a motor the DIR pin changes from 0 to 5 volts.

Hi, changed my Config. I get an error with the path from this. But i attached a screenshoot with my folder. 

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden: 'user_tabs/

USER_TABS_PATH = user_tabs/             # REQUIRED Setting for Probe Basic
USER_BUTTONS_PATH = user_buttons/       # REQUIRED Setting for Probe Basic

Yes it is possible did it in the many ways... but only working way for me was that to switch off the EoE master directly on the master...

I did it during ethercat installation ... install everything like a rodw has in his thread and then turn off ethercat master service ... and finally reinstall just ethercat master with right driver what is directly supported my hardware to supress the latency and then disable feature --eoe ...

I can did a terminal command manual if somebody needs them

In old RIO there was error and enable pins that could be enable in configuration file.
In case of some error, lost communication with LinuxCNC or similar there need to be some pin on board that will indicate such event.

Thanks

Has this error message appeared for anyone?
If so, how did you resolve it?
Can you tell me why it appeared?
 

did you get it sorted?

need more information on your install. are you using the linuxcnc iso? if so i think it was sent out with an older repository listing, you may need to remove it first and try uninstalling qtpyvcp probe basic completely and then use the docs to reinstall with the key allowing it to install the source address.

yeah that is not a good orientation method trying to pickup the curved body.  you would probe the top flat of the pin to give it a more square edge to have a strongly defined edge to trigger.  or better use a wedge/pie shaped block that gave the proximity sensor a flat square edge to sense.  this is how i have those setup on my machine as home and limit switches and they are actually quite repeatable in the sub 0.001" as seen in the video:

I agree with your assessment that it is easier to keep up with things if you give people a narrow lane, but i did that with the current implementation and it was a bit short sighted i think (you are proof of that).  I would like to find an easy way to setup everything in a more modular way maybe.  i think your outline is a good starting point for sure! Thanks for taking the time to write it out!
