I effectively use an NVIDIA 1070 GPU (overkill, but that's what I have and there is no onboard GPU).

GL_RENDERER = NV134
GL_VERSION = 4.3 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 22.3.6
GL_VENDOR = nouveau
GL_EXTENSIONS = (There is a huge quantity of things, do you really want to see them?

Yes, that is it, but there are many issues with those files, like why is it asking for a parallel port when using Mesa 5i25 and 7i77?
Make a new config, do NOT choose stuff at random, set up only axis/joints you need and estop/enable pins and home/limits. You can edit configs at any time later, you can have as much configs as you like/need for the same machine on the same PC.
And i am pretty sure you will need this:

Do not skip steps, do not wire everything and power on <- this usually ends up in tears and smoke.

First real job for this lathe-
Parting off from a 4" 304 bar, then facing back side of the part.

Had some extreme and abnormal chatter at first so I looked around for loose components. Tightened up the X gibs, tried again, nope. Put a bar in the chuck and an indiciator on the spindle, gave it a push and a shove and saw .004" TIR. Ended up having to tighten the spindle preload and good to go.

 

Check syslog with "sudo dmesg | tail -20", the master usually tells you in its own cryptic way what's wrong.

Edit, sorry I see you have already done that. Nevertheless, show us messages in the syslog.
And the ethercat-conf.xml file.

 

Assuming this is what you mean?

Can you not message the vendor for any documents ?
Unless someone else has one and is willing to share their experiences, you're venturing into unknown territory.

If it does run 7i92 firmware any threads relating to 7i92 setup should suffice.

Yes that one sir

I’m trying to connect an ICLA ILA2E servo drive over EtherCAT using LinuxCNC 2.9.7 with the lcec driver and the IgH EtherCAT master 1.6.8 (on Debian 12 RT). The EtherCAT bus is: PC → Beckhoff EK1100 → ICLA ILA PLCOpen (the ILA2E servo). The EK1100 coupler always reaches OP state without problems, but the servo stays stuck in PREOP + ERROR when controlled through lcec.When I control the servo manually with thecommand-line tools, it behaves correctly. If I send controlwords 0x0006, 0x0007, and then 0x000F to object 0x6040, the drive enables, holds torque, and moves as expected. The feedback position from 0x6064 changes correctly, and the motor clearly enters operational state internally, even thoughstill lists it as PREOP + ERROR. So communication works and the drive can be controlled directly, but it never transitions to OP when LinuxCNC and lcec are running.The PDO mapping was taken directly from the drive:RxPDO 0x1600 contains 6040 (controlword, 16 bits), 6060 (opmode, 8 bits), 607A (target position, 32 bits), and 60FF (target velocity, 32 bits).
TxPDO 0x1A00 contains 6041 (statusword, 16 bits), 6061 (opmode display, 8 bits), 6064 (actual position, 32 bits), 606C (actual velocity, 32 bits), and 6077 (actual torque, 16 bits).The XML configuration for the slave defines these PDOs and basic HAL pins for cia-controlword, opmode, target-position, actual-position, and so on. I have not included any DC configuration yet because the drive does not reach OP even in basic mode.When I start LinuxCNC, lcec loads normally, but the servo never leaves PREOP. The HAL pins show that the slave is online but not operational. The logs show mailbox or CoE errors such as “Invalid input configuration (0x001E)” or timeouts while reading SDOs like 0x1C33:3. Despite that, if I exit LinuxCNC and usecommands directly, the servo behaves correctly every time.So the problem is that the drive can reach operational state when commanded manually through, but it stays in PREOP when controlled via lcec. I suspect the issue might be in the XML configuration or a missing initialization SDO sequence.Has anyone successfully used an ICLA ILA PLCOpen (Vendor ID 0x0800005A, Product ID 0x000022DB, model ILA2E) servo with LinuxCNC and lcec? Any hints about what might be missing in the configuration would be greatly appreciated.

Hmmm ... why are you running a hal file with halrun?
You need to run an ini file with LinuxCNC, so right click on the ini file, open with, use custom command and type linuxcnc, enter.

Thank you for reporting back.

actually I found out it was caused by a tool being called that doesn't exist, so it cancelled the file load

I am stuck at the same point again. I was leaning heavily on LLM's to get me this far, but I think some human common sense and experience might be required here.
Please, If anyone can shed some light as to what might be required here, it would be much appreciated.
 

I think I understand the width and scale now, I have illustrated my understanding in the pictures attached.  If you could confirm that those measurements are the correct ones for the width and scale parameters that would be amazing.

Our problem is the understanding of how the carousel component integrates with the hardware, for example how come some people leave pins or parameters out. And what is carousel-lock and unlock and how does it relate to the component. 

Also my illustration was fast it is not to scale unfortunately, so I included a photo of the actual carousel.  
Thank you

Actually, yes I did... Shouldn't I?
