is the solution replacing with halui.joint.0.minus? I found that in some research but dont want to do anything rash quite yet...

okay all the axis are now back to joints. well I changed the ones i copied to joints as they were originally just axis. now I am having this error I am looking into

The ATC has one sensor (inductive). One bolt is longer, so it is used as a reference (pocket 1).
The other bolts have no effect to the sensor.The disk is driven by a servomotor (JMC 750W, analog input velocity mode)—it's connected to a 7i97.I have encoder counts from the motor as feedback.The linear move toward the spindle is done by a pneumatic cylinder.

this is how it should work :

The ATC moves pneumatically into the working area. The disk rotates to the corresponding tool pocket, and then the main spindle retrieves the tool.

Usually, 6 months to a year!
Although i like to remind myself there are examples of that being a good thing...not often though, MySQL database comes to mind back when it was acquired by Oracle (i think) and they made it much faster and still left it open source, for quite a while...no idea what is the current state of it though.
I am waiting for Paramount to acquire HBO, as that will be absolutely the end of free speech in USA.

copy that, I changed it on the premise that the hal file I am referencing has the axis part and that was the only difference. I thought I screwed something up in the config as I recall something about selecting joints over axis. I will change this back. sometimes I overthink thing, with the speed at which you respond I am much better to just ask haha. feel free at any point to call me an idiot, I dont mind

Well looks like Arduino has been acquired by Qualcomm. Any guesses how long before it becomes closed source?

Yes, you are wrong, as proven by the error, AXIS_0 P does not exist, but JOINT_0 P should.

I deleted my reply, twice, as i can not fathom why...
It is a huge machine with several hundreds of KG of moving mass that can easily break you like a twig, yet you allow yourself to change things you do not understand that will ultimately be controlling that machine!!!
Read, ask, do NOT assume.

If you use a touchscreen, think about what works well with it.

On all the encoders, after power-on, there is a step in the high-res data when the encoder passes the index position. But, there is NO step in the low-res absolute data. My converter board FPGA makes the high-res step disappear as it converts to quadrature. I know WHY Fanuc went with the serial scheme, the quadrature count rates become insane when you start thinking about 1 million counts/rev, and so converting those to quadrature is not practical at full resolution.

1. Turn off AoE
2. Timing ... 4ms your config != 1ms is your lcec master
3. Refclock cycles has to be something negative as "-1"

Here is working config of the sewlteb from my machine...

 

I would echo what tommylight said,

Axis is not beautiful but when testing hardware I
use it because it can run for months 24/7 with 0 issues

Noted, that was easy enough to change. I noticed my config had said joint in many places over the word axis. was I wrong to change it all to say axis? new debug text

What exactly do you mean by that TCP?

TCP = Tool Center Piont, the kinematics that keep the tool positioned in the same place no matter how the axis/joints are moving (might not be the best explanation, i know)

LinuxCNC comes with several 5 axis TCP-TRT simulated configs that also have a Vismach visualization screen/window where the machine can be seen moving, makes things much easier to test.
On the LinuxCNC configuration selecotr, go to sample configurations>sim>axis>vismach>5axis>table-rotary-tilting and choose one of the two configs to run.

Surely you also have an envelope file (stp or similar)?

Yes, an STL 3D model as shown in the picture above.
Again, thank you very much.

When LinuxCNC added the feature to support multiple spindles, the spindle pin names changed.

for example:

motion.spindle-speed-in

becomes

spindle.0.speed-in
 

That's an odd error since the new mask should be 128=080H
and the existing mask is 255=0FFH
