I'm seeing the DRO move with the creeping (that's how I identified the creep), I disconnect the analog output to the drive and it stops, I'm measuring 10mv about on the output to the drive, so the creep is being generated by the control. I tried switching the Encoder direction, no change.

I think that as long as it gets fed with fresh (moisturized air) it will be saturated too quickly. Probably it's better to put it in a cabinet where the temperature is higher. The higher the temperature the less moisture it contains.
Besides that I think it's more likely that it's failing capacitors. In general industrial computers are more resistant to low temperatures.

Good catch. Thanks!! Forgot to fix on the copy and paste. Now if I can figure out the "Joint 0 amplifier fault" messages.

@Lcvette,

Looking forward to see your video.


 

Hi,

in the xml file. Idx=5 for all slaves.
Thinking should this be a incremental value? 

Thanks for posting this it was a good place to start for me. 
Running 2.9.3 from live cd install
Installed linuxcnc-ethercat yesterday
Beckhoff EK1100 wit 3X 7041 Rev 26

I have everything up and running.  When I start Axis my 7041 module run lights turn solid showing me the slaves are in "OP"

I started with the basic XML config but then went to add the mod params to set currents and voltages.

I get the error below when starting axis  any thoughts seems odd.  looking at the driver for this is seems like it should work. i can  "sudo ethercat upload/download" data from terminal just fine.

When I use the basic XML Axis starts up fine. When I power up i get join 0 drive fault msg

Hal,INI & XML attached. 

any insight would be appreciated.

What Qtvcp screen are you using?
What version of linuxcnc are you using?
Is it an installed version or RIP version.
In master branch this is the process of doing translations:

linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gui/qtdrago...internationalisation

Yes, the tool moves from bottom to top towards the center line.

What linux distribution are you using?
What error messages did you get?

if you get a continuous creep, it indicates a problem with feedback.
(backwards, noise generating false counts, PID with no P term etc)

I'm attempting to add a 4th axis to my mill, but I'm running into roadblocks.  The axis jogs (but still creeps) under "open loop testing" in PNCCONF.  When I launch ProbeBasic, it no longer jogs  (while the other axes do), and it creeps at a rate of about 1/2 degree per second.  Adding bias doesn't seem to effect it.  PID is not tuned yet.  When I try to jog it it following error errors out instantly.  As you can see in my INI file, I set the following error to 5 degrees to be able to see how fast it was creeping.  What are reasonable numbers for accel for a 4th axis?  

Hi,
wanted to install QT designer as described in pdf-documentation (section 12.5.4.2 on page 1073)
It doesn`t work.
 
Please help me. 
Thanks

2. save this as 'remap.py' tot the folder named 'python' created above:

[code]from interpreter import *

def m456(self):
    import random
    random_value = random.randint(0, 10000000000)
    self.execute("#<_random_value> = %f " % random_value, 1)
    yield INTERP_EXECUTE_FINISH

[/code]
 

I changed this part to the code below
But I get the  error
How do I fix it?

is the cutter in the same place in the preview as your machine?
