pncconf Clearpath SDSK settings

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

 
"Help" is a strong word for what's happening here.

You seem to be getting frustrated.  Maybe I can help.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but your situation is that you have a Mesa 7i96s and Clearpath SDSK motors.  You want to:

  • Set some rational values for max velocity and accel
  • Connect the HLFB pins to the 7i96s
  • Make LCNC do something with the HLFB signals


    Have I got it right?

Yes, and thank you for engaging.

Those points are just what are directly in front of me, right now. It's mostly because I am at the pncconf stage, and there isn't a selection for setting the pins for drive fault there. I am not hung up on moving on, as long as I know where I need to set this function. I have LinuxCNC forum people telling me they have no idea how Clearpath HLFB works and Teknic saying they have no idea how LinuxCNC works, and here I am, stuck in the middle. That's why I thought maybe seeing an existing configuration would skip the middlemen and I could just copy someone else's homework.

Beyond that, I also need to know what to expect when homing the dual-Y gantry axis. There is more I'd like to learn about autosquaring too, but that's just one thing out of a long list.

ttk buttons have no height or width configuration options so in this instance the easiest way is to add newlines and spaces around the text.
Something like the below inserted immediately before the return should look reasonable.
    after 0 {.__tk_filedialog.contents.f2.ok configure -text "\n          Open          \n"
             .__tk_filedialog.contents.f2.cancel configure -text "\nCancel\n"
            }

Making more progress on water table. If I was to ever building something like this again I would build a stronger support frame to on the inside and underside of the table. I kindof skimped out there and it lead to lots of steel warping and bowing. I don't think it will matter much because I am going to build slat frames that can be leveled. Hopefully it's strong enough to hold all the water and up to 1.5 inch plate. Seems to be to me.

SOLVED: CSS G96 with CCW spindle M4 on lathe

Category: G&M Codes

It may be possible to work around this by using some hal trickery:

A scale component and mux component to change the scale from 1 to -1
when desired.

But I do not know what LinuxCNC motion component expects.
It seems odd that a negative spindle speed would not be acceptable
for g96 when m4 is in effect.

Not sure. what device are you interfacing?
Do you really have 7 input and 7 output registers with integer values?

Solved - LinuxCNC does not work with new Delta ASDA-A2 drive

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

"If EtherCAT works well, wouldn't it make the pulse option look rather outdated ?"

basically yes. pulse and analogues went out of date in the mid 90s and everyone went separate ways with serial protocols. Pulse stuck around for hobby people but the dust has settled now and ethercat is the way forward for sure.

Whether it is your present depends on a lot of factors. Usually money :P

AttributeError: 'Info' object has no attribute 'MIN_SPINDLE_0_SPEED'. Did you mean: 'MIN_SPINDLE_SPEED'?

I've added instances of each setting in several places, so I don't understand.

I'm attaching my .ini and HAL file plus the error report.

With this config for mb2hal i have a working system

And i have this config for mesa modbus.
Is that correct ?
#define MAX_MSG_LEN 16   // may be increased if necessary to max 251

static const hm2_modbus_chan_descriptor_t channels[] = {
/*  {TYPE,    FUNC, ADDR,   COUNT, pin_name} */
