Looks like you are using Qtaxis?
Looks like you are modifying the screen rather then embedding a custom panel?

You would need to follow Qtvcp docs for Qtaxis modifications. I can help once you confirm what you are doing.

The instructions in the manual are what you should follow for building or modifying a configuration.

Stepconfig, is a wizard application for creating basic machine configurations. It asks you questions and you fill in the answers about your machine config, then it builds the configurations files (*.hal, *.ini ...) for you. The end result being a set of machine config files that might work for you, or be a stepping off point giving you a framework to create a more complex configuration from.

PS once you've created a config using one of the wizards, if you make manual hand modifications to the config files, do not try to make changes using the wizards. Because the wizards do not look at the existing config files for info, any previous changes to them will be lost and overwritten. (They work from other files that are not used for running Linuxcnc.)

As others have mentioned, you definitely do not want DHCP and you do
need to set a static address.

You might try this:

       auto eth0
       iface eth0 inet static
           address 10.10.10.100
           netmask 255.255.255.0

DO NOT set a gateway or nameservers

 

They do seem to work. I've spent about 3 hrs tuning these so far. I'll have a hopefully final go next week. I've got 4 1kw servos (gantry). There are enough details in the manual to do the tuning. The velocity feed forward from Linux Cnc really helps with following error to a ramp, which is what I'm testing. I wish there was a way to restart communication without restarting the drives. It is tedious using the buttons on the drives. If I get a satisfactory procedure I'll write it up.

We can not give you exact settings as you did not reply to our questions, so go back, read and reply.

I don't know where you saw the info about the setup wizard, but this is absolutely wrong.
As the image is essentially Debian Bookworm you can use the below link to get an idea. Also there is a large sticky thread related to the RPi images, in the Installing Linuxcnc heading.
What other image are you referring to ?

wiki.debian.org/NetworkConfiguration

I'm still waiting to see these in proper functional use on a machine too.
These are very appealing to spec on my machine, but I want someone else to make sure it works first, hahaha.

ok, i've finished your instructions. now what? haha.

I've only ever set up linuxcnc with the mesa wizard. what guide should i follow now for the rest?

Thanks!
