Invert the enable pin in StepConf.
You can edit the existing config, click on the right side where you have chosen that pin.

Problem with my LinuxCNC

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Hello,
 have a problem with my LinuxCNC. I run the "LinuxCNC Stepper" I complete my setup and I test each axis separately, it works very well, Once I finish the configuration and I run the shortcut created on the desktop, I can no longer control my axes. When I launch the shortened engine is released, as if I hit the power

Someone has already experienced this problem?

Can somebody please explain dcconf and watchdog in XML?

Category: EtherCAT

dcConf is a setting some drives, typically servo and stepper motor drives, needs to synchronize the motion between them.
The choices are no synchronization (free run - often not accepted by drives), synchronization by precise time (DC - Distributed clocks) or synchronization by event (SM-synchronization).
What the drive accepts are in the ESI file for the drive and is set by a number in the assignActivate field. Check here for a lot of useful info on EtherCAT and a box for Synchronization www.ethercat.org/download/documents/Ethe..._Protocol_Poster.pdf
The sync0Cycle specifies the frequency of the DC clock cycle, or rather the period length. "*1" means 1 x applicationTime period, so often 1 ms. But different values can be given.
sync0Shift says exactly at which point inside this 1 ms the sync event takes place. 

watchdog is usually not needed, ethercat has a default 100 ms watchdog setting. Not sure what happens when the watchdog triggers.
It seems some drives needs this set specifically, such as the Stepperonline A6 servo drive.
The intervals are 40 nsec long, so the setting of intervals=2498 divider=1000 one can see ends up at 2498*40*1000 nsec = 99.92 msecs.
