better use python3

Hello! Thank you for your support! I only use 7i91th.

Can someone help me create a Python script to record positions in the event of a power loss or LinuxCNC error?

I plan to create an external real-time position logger with an update interval of 0.001 seconds. I use this feature for a wirecut machine. I'm using a Python script and have tried activating log_position_to_txt.py with the M-code command, but the position logging process results in a code overflow, causing the .txt file to grow uncontrollably.

Here's the code for log_position_to_txt.py:

##############################
#!/usr/bin/env python2.7
import linuxcnc
import time

stat = linuxcnc.stat()

with open("position-log.txt", "w") as outfile:

while True:

stat.poll()
x,y,z,a,b,c,u,v,w = stat.actual_position

outfile.write("X ")
outfile.write("{:.4f}\n".format(x))
outfile.write("Y ")
outfile.write("{:.4f}\n".format(y))

time.sleep(0.001)
####################################


Can someone help me fix my Python script so that... position recording does not result in code accumulation?

I'm afraid we really don't have enough information to help you.

We have to assume that the new drive isn't configured the same as your old one. Are both the new and old drives the same model and version? (There are different models of Delta Servos that are the same size and look simular, but the motors from an older one are not compatible with a newer drive or vice versa.)

Do you have a back up of all of the parameters from the old drive? Assuming that your new drive is the same model as the old one, you would need to load the parameter settings from the old one to the new one in order for it to behave as before. If you don't have either a software backup of the parameters, or written down paper copy of the parameter settings, then you will have to figure out what they need to be. We can't really help you with that though unless you tell us how the motor/drivev is mis behaving.

I found this link there is probably working configuration of your drive ... there is output from raw config ... it should works

Hi Gartenzwerg,

ich habe deinen Post leider zu spät gelesen. Ich hätte noch einen Tipp für ein passendes Mainboard:
Asrock-n100dc-itx   inkl. CPU   -  und Parallel Header
Ich setze das bei meinem CNC Umbau einer Langlochbohrmaschine (Zinkenfräse) ein und macht einen guten Job. (Latenzen um die 8000), nur verwende ich nicht den Par. Port sondern über Lan.
Nur weil ich neugierig bin - von wo bist du im Osten Ö? : ich komme aus dem 3 Länder Eck: Stmk - Bgld - NÖ

Yes more info is needed. I think you had that type of problem before, endian?

There is one setting. After reading through the esi file I see there is only DC sync supported, no async or sm sync.
Add this line to the xml file after the     <slave idx="0" line

Edit. You already have that. It's early...
