Je viens environ tous les trimestres sur bordeaux mais souvent sur une grosse journée sans trop le temps de prendre une bière. Mais courant juin juillet je vais avoir plusieurs jours à y passer pour une grosse maintenance, ça peut se faire.

Retrieving parameters values

Category: Qtvcp

What do you mean by "you could just set the paramEdit directly " ?

STATUS.cmd.wait_complete() doesn't solve my problem.

I tried (in a button_click callback) :

ACTION.CALL_MDI("M68 E4 Q#1217")
while not STATUS.cmd.wait_complete():
time.sleep(0.1)
self.w.doubleSpinBox_DJG.setValue(self.w.lcdnumberDJ.value())

and I have to click twice to see lcdnumberDJ updated

So I try

ACTION.CALL_MDI("M68 E4 Q#1217")
time.sleep(2)
self.w.doubleSpinBox_DJG.setValue(self.w.lcdnumberDJ.value())

I watch motion.analog-out-04 in halshow at the same time, I see it changing immediatly when I click and then lcdnumberDJ appearing 2s later but without being updated. I click a second time and it works.
Do you know why ? I surely need to call some process_message like function between .. ?

Generally, try the output of "lcec_configgen" for this slave and see if that helps.
Then if no success, hook it up to TwinCAT and see if you can find anything helpful there.
And of course googleing, found this forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/53438-etherc...pindle-estop-and-mpg

Unnamed CATIO-A Device Configuration (help!)

Category: EtherCAT

I am trying to get an un-named, un-branded etherCAT IO module to work - the company I work for had picked it up some years ago for a project that fell through. I don't have an ESI for the board, and so I am trying to rely on what i can read from etherCAT. attached are images of the device with a switch and LED wired (next problem) 

here is my output of ethercat xml -p1:
?xml version="1.0" ?>
<EtherCATInfo>

and so i tried to add it to my ethercat-conf.xml file as such (the following is an extract from a working config):
<slave idx="1" type="generic" vid="0x00090588" pid="0x00109252" configPdos="false">
   <syncManager idx="2" dir="out">

     </pdo>
   </syncManager>
   <syncManager idx="3" dir="in">
     <pdo idx="1a00">
       <pdoEntry idx="6000" subIdx="01" bitLen="8" halPin="imcio-di0" halType="bit"/>
     </pdo>
   </syncManager>
  </slave>
I tried adjusting configPdos to true, as well as false with as little provided information as possible... still won't enter SAFEOP or OP state and instead errors out and back to PREOP E. here is the output from halcmd dmesg -w:
[270386.928285] EtherCAT ERROR 0-1: Failed to set SAFEOP state, slave refused state change (PREOP + ERROR).
[270386.929285] EtherCAT ERROR 0-1: AL status message 0x0017: "Invalid sync manager configuration".

Can anyone help me with configuring this module?

Smart Serial Comms Error - Since upgrade to 2.9.4

Hi All
I've had to rebuild my machine after an SSD failure, and decided to move into the future.
I installed 2.9.4 and copied in my machine config files, everything worked out an issue initially but with in a few minutes I started getting the following errors
 

The latancy seems ok, running for a long time with glxgears and watching video via youtube and copying larger files

Howdy!

I've made some progress the last couple of days with the retrofit. Mainly around the control panel design.

I received a secondhand 27" ELO touchscreen in the post, which I got for an absolute steal. Yet to power it up, but it was sold as functioning and the drivers work on linux. The new control panel is based around this screen and the gmoccapy gui, with a handful on hardware controls I've deemed necessary from the Heidenhain. I'd also like the panel to rotate around to aid interaction while standing in front of the bed/doors. I've orientated the screen vertical, as it's bloody huge.

Attached are some screen grabs of the CAD model. It's designed to take the MX Cherry style switches. Looks like a few of you have used them and I'm a sucker for a "clicky" button. One MPG, e-stop, usb jack, all the usual suspects etc. Control enclosure is to be fabricated from 80x25x3mm aluminium channel for the perimeter frame and cnc routed 3mm sheet for the front and rear panels. I'll glue this together with the TIG and send it out with the next client job batch for powder. 

I also received a Delta 11kw VFD. Again, it was removed from a working machine and was considerably better value than a new one. Dug out a Omron encoder that was leftover from another project that never saw life. Planning to use this on the spindle.

Cheers,

J

Yes, the RS-422 is their smart serial connection between the 7i97T FPGA main board and 7i73 and 7i84 daughter boards. Since there is only one RS-422 configured standard on the 7i97T (on TB4), you can only connect one of those two cards, until you reflash the 7i97T to reconfigure some of the pins of the P2 expansion port to provide a second RS-422.

Glad you are enjoying my videos. It is fun to dick around with this stuff :)
Cheers,
Mark

Thanks for the clarification Mark.
Apologies on the slow reply, I've had an internet detox the last week!

Do you need all new drives?

I thought only one broke.

Sorry Langdons, I've been away the last week and decided to take a breather from the internet.

By the looks of it yes, just one. However, given the likelihood of another dying in the future, I'd rather replace the whole bunch. The quotes to repair them are sky high and secondhand ones are almost as bad.

hi Hakan,

Thanks for the recommendation to move to cia402 - the drive runs and i can at least move the motor! I feel like I might have taken some weird workarounds trying to chase linuxcnc compile errors, so I probably need to touch on whether these are "acceptable" - perhaps you can comment on the below?

note with the above: I had to comment out quite a few lines to avoid having to go "deeper" into ini files to remove errors from occuring... one such example was with the cia402.0.motor-pos-fb and cmd, I had errors stating that they were already linked to Xpos - so I just "reassigned" them. basically any line in the above that is commented out is just due to an error. definitely also need to uncomment the fault reporting...

next step for me is to set up a physical axis where I can test homing and rotation distance of a ball screw etc. and get an IO board working

My Maho homes off the Heindenhain LS-403 scale index marks. Works the same as homing to a a separate homing switch.

Do you have the LS 403 scale or the LS 403 C? Could explain why I have some problems since the "C" is the Distance-coded version of the scale...
