Mesa smart serial or PktUART or serial over RS232 or udp for robot joints

Category: Advanced Configuration

As I know, you can use a smart serial UART to read the Yaskawa ABS encoder, but you need to make a custom component to handle it, including 2 elements: a UART channel and an increment encoder channel.
1st: read the ABS encoder at the initial state
2nd: set the abs position by summing up the abs and increment

how to get rid of the probed dumping non-probe mode error? was created by abs32

how to get rid of the probed dumping non-probe mode error?

Category: Advanced Configuration

Colleagues, there is Probe. And there is a constantly appearing error 
probe tripped during non-probe mode

To combat this error, I specified the following in the configuration file -
loadrt select8 count=1
addf select8.0 servo-thread
net probe-in select8.0.enable
net motion-mode motion.motion-type select8.0.sel
net probesel select8.0.out5 motion.probe-input

The error frequency is immediately sync. However, with such a conciguration, the g38.4 and g38.5 command does not work

When you enter (midi mode) the g38.5 command (options), nothing happens. And when you enter the g48.4 command (parameters), nothing happens either, but an error message appears - probe is already clear when starting g38.4 or g38.5 move, while in fact the sensor is in the "contact is" state and this is visible with the eyes - contact with the body is and the contact LED is lit.

This error disappears and the g38.4 + g38.5 commands are executed normally if "those" entries in the configuration file are deleted.

The question is: how to get rid of the probed dumping non-probe mode error?

I guess you should use Probe Basic or QtDragon or some other cute hmi.
Now the ethercat part is sorted, just normal linuxcnc config left.

Hakan, thanks so much for taking the time to help get this working. I can switch off for the night on a high now. Lots more to do but being able to jog a drive feels like a big step forward.

Stepper online A6 Servo motor as Spindle motor

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I have a Stepperonline 1000W servo motor with an EtherCAT servo drive, which I intend to use as a temporary spindle motor until I can upgrade to a higher-power unit.
Currently, I have three axes configured to work with Leadshine servo drives via EtherCAT.How can I configure this servo motor to function as a spindle motor?
Specifically, what needs to be added or modified in the following configuration files:
.INI  
.HAL.  
.XML
I’ve tried setting it up based on information from other forum posts, but I haven’t had much success so far.

Ah, so simple. I've been committing the cardinal sin of making multiple changes at once.
Up and running again and OH YEAH! Got motor motion! Although I must admit I'm a bit unsure what's changed to make it start working...

Hi,

do you perhaps now if this whole problem is now solved in the master branch or should I compile LCNC with the changes mentioned above to fix the problem?

This one
check_config:

That is a line in the ini file
KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=X
should be XZ

Ah, yep, stupid simple. I'd been going back and forward for about an hour trying to figure that out.

swapping the HDD gave some issues with the drivers for graphics card.
just gave it another try by installing 2.8.4 and somehow it sort of worked.

even pcloud installed
the issue is been solved for now, but I do find it confusing that an 'upgrade' to 2.9 breaks some functionality

Righto I've added those lines in. No change on the x axis motor movement though.

In the interim I've connected up my second servo drive in order to start getting a full setup. I've essentially just copied and pasted the working x drive info but I'm getting
[code][code]./EL8_machine.hal:69: Pin 'joint.1.motor-pos-fb' does not exist
I've attached the files. No doubt it's some stupid simple thing.

*Is it easier if I just put the files straight into the post as code rather than attaching them? I want to make sure it's as easy as possible for everyone.[/code][/code]

It's good thing to know.
Do you know are there some configs with stmbl driving robots available around?
I saw some integrations with robots but encoders are read by mesa cards directly.
I would be more interested in this part which you mentioned if stmbls are set up in this way that they send position over smart serial.

Do you happen to know on higher level how this position report over smart serial works if we want to read 6 robot joints positions?
Correct me if I am wrong, but possibly in HAL we would have 6 sequential position requests, one request per each joint. We would wait for each one stmbl to report its position. So request + stmbl processing time + reply over smart serial and this happens 6 times. From fast look earlier not 100% sure but I think that there are 2 mcu in stmbl, so possibly one of them fast handles communication.
