Not sure but as far as I understand this issue, things might be a lot easier switching to a PC with an intel network chip.

Hi Arciera,

That is the result of using a 0.1 fillet.
Here is a 0.01 fillet for comparishment.

 

i have been fighting with this issue for over six months. it doesn't matter what i do, this issue keeps coming back. PCW advised me to contact Mesa, and i did, but they want to charge shipping fees and other fees to look at this board and it may not even need anything done to it by them. i think i would just be throwing more money away and i would like to exhaust ALL my options before i send it back to them. not to mention the snarky attitude you get after a week of the run around. so i will conserve sending it back as a last, last resort. the attitude they have about issues with these boards are its all your fault and there is no way the board can be faulty. so i'm turning to the good people on this site to see if we can come up with a solution before i send it back to Mesa. 

as stated in the description, im getting the error hm2/hm2_7i96s.0: watchdog has bit! (set the .has-bit pin to false to resume)
also, Unexpected realtime delay on task ) with period 1000000. i am also getting an error hm2/hm2_7i96s.0: stepgen.04. maxvel is too big for current step timings & position-scale. clipping to max possible.

now i know the last error is not an issue at the moment, but the watchdog error (error plus red light on, on the 7i96s) i followed the instuctions on this link docs.google.com/document/d/1jeV_4VKzVmOI...m1x7oiw8VcLFdiY/edit. when i install the dkms drivers for the realtek ethernet adapter, i lose my network. as it is right now, i have a fresh install of Debian trixie and i installed linuxcnc and configured the network. Axis starts up and i can home but after a few minutes, i get the watchdog error (red light on, on the mesa 7i96s along with error in description).

what else ive done is outlined in the following links. forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...-connection-problems. and forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...oint-following-error. i have also tried a couple different power supplies to make sure the board is getting enough power.
can't we flash firmware on this board? i really don't know what i am doing when it comes to flashing these boards. (as i have never done it before) and i don't want to brick the board, but i think with your guys help, i can straighten this out. without sending it back to mesa. i really think its a firmware issue since i am unable to read the firmware through terminal or in mesaflash, the firmware section is greyed out.
any help is greatly appreciated.

ok, I got this screen, I didn't do any more procedures here. What to do now? restart linux or is there any other procedure?

I have a sneaky suspicion that the W5500 has trouble keeping up with the small packets.
I’ve noticed that when there is an issue with the packets there is quite a long response time. It’s difficult as the packets seem to have issues at random intervals, there doesn’t seem to be anything consistent to it.
Tho the code doesn’t seem to do the required software reset, but one would think if it was an issue it would show up quite early in the piece.
Another option would be a soft core to handle the Ethernet interface. From looking at the Mesa code the softcores they use are to handle the smart serial and Ethernet comms.
But in all honesty the bridge works great.

Note that 'halui.axis.jog-speed' needs to be set for plus minus jogging:
 

I think I know what the solution is but I just cant seem to get it to work. Fusion360 has a post processor training guide and in it they discuss a section called polar interpolation, which is exactly what I need, it replaces one of the linear axis with a rotary axis and outputs strictly polar coordinates. If I go to prebuilt millturn posts such as haas 35st, doosan millturn, etc - and use that post to process my machine kinematics and toolpaths - it does output seemingly correct polar gcode. However, their post processors are significantly more complicated and have a variety of gcodes that are not relevant to linuxcnc. HOWEVER, when I try to manually integrate polar interpolation to the linuxcnc milling post, I am unable to get it to work, it still always outputs cartesian coordinates and or says the direction of my milling is incorrect.

Hm, as usual I'm concerned about unwanted path distortion:

 

I presume these splines were added by the algorithm, if so it seems like a lot of distortion for 'G64 P0.1 Q0.1'?

Hello, I just heard of this software,
Seen it in Youtube video
"Building The 5-Axis CNC Machine in a Small Room: A DIY Journey. (Part12)"

Does the software reduce the RPi's cpu load?
or,
Does the RPi still run X and OpebGL and Axis gui?
(I _think _ nhose are the alternatives )

Thx

Thank you Mark!

Here is a picture of the back side of the panel, 7i73 reading switches, 2 potentiometers and mpg encoder.
It also drives 30 LEDs under switches (multiplexed). The multiplexing is currently done in hal but I will try to write a component for it.

 

And this is a custom power detection board. Basically just 12 AC optocouplers and a relay output to detect a open breaker or motor overloads.

 

Also do you insert pictures in posts as attachments or someway different. On some pictures even if I compress them, forum still complains about large file size.

i tryed RMII with the tangnano9k, bitfile generation works, but get no connection
better go with esp32:

github.com/multigcs/LinuxCNC-RIO/tree/main/UDP2SPI-Bridge

i prefer the WT32-ETH01, cheap and available

I knew there was another HAL component that might be relevant, I don't know how I missed it:

Andy,

I need some clarity on a few points for sendkeys.

At this point I have an Arduino board that can trigger events in halshow, So when I activate an Arduino connected push button, the jog-x-pos and the halui.axis.x.plus changes from yellow to red. I expect the actual X-axis to jog when I press that button, however other than the yellow to red indication nothing happens. (the system is NOT in Estop, and the machine is enabled on the manual control tab. If I mouse click on the "+" button, the x axis does jog.

Do I need to enable/invoke SENDKEYS, to actually get the yellow to red indication of jog-x-pos to do something?

Assuming that I do need to enable SENDKEYS, I need a little help with a few points in the SENDKEYS documentation.
 Instructions say "Create a new entry in .B/etc/udev/rules.d/99-input.rules"

I'm not sure where ".B" is?

I did find       /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
So neglecting the missing ".B"  I assumed this is the file I'm supposed to update?
However when I add "sudo echo KERNEL=="uinput", GROUP="uinput", MODE:="0660" | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules" to that file I get the attached error message. So lots of possible mistakes here: wrong location, wrong file, adding the uinput group did not work even though it seemed to (see last attachment) the discrepancy between 99-input.rules ,77-persistant-cd.rules , 88-input.rules?

Please advise.
 

 
 

Hi Arciera,

Ok, I will not worry about it.

I tried a free gcode file, a griffins logo. File about 14000 lines.
www.cnccookbook.com/g-code-examples-file...for_Milling_Machines

In the file no G64 P.. Q.. was given. Raw output :
 

Then i added G64 P0.1 Q0.1
The output : 


Then without the velocity display :
 

The purple are all clothoids. Cyan is spline, White is line.

File specs :
items G64 P.. Q.. before:14151 after:28292 diff:-14141
So the gcode file is increased by 14141 segments.

Maybe test some more files?

At the moment a UDP2SPI bridge (esp32) is still the best solution.
 

This one?
