Thanks for the reply.
I removed it but it had no effect.

I would try to remove the PARAMETER_FILE (sim_mm.var) and then start the program

W4 is not used on the 7I84U, its position does not matter.
(note that the 7I84U was tested with the as shipped jumper settings)

What LEDs are illuminated on the 7I84U when the system is powered
(but linuxCNC not running?)

You should have 2 yellow LEDs and 1 red LED illuminated. If not, 
there is a power issue.

Do you have both FIELDA and FIELDB voltages applied? 

 

I just noticed that halui.axis.x.pos-relative read the value correctly and it retains it after restart. The axis.x.pos-cmd always starts at -496.2247. When i move the robot the halui.axis.x.pos-relative reports the correct absolute position but the robot moves as if it has been started at -496.2247. Any ideas?

Hi, I have a delta robot built on ethercat and running linuxcnc.
We recently got drives with absolute encoders so i had to make a specific homing procedure that just triggers the internal homing on the drives.
The drives then reset their encoder positions internally to 0 or home offset if it's set in HAL with lcec.
Then, when using the robot i could move it somewhere, turn off linux cnc and then start it again and linuxcnc always shows the same position when starting [ 0. , 0. , -496.22474747]. When i disable the home offset this number still stays the same. I move the robot to [0,0,-700], restart and it still shows the same position, and then moves "ignoring" the soft limits. The encoders themselves retain their position information properly, it's just linuxcnc that reads it wrong (or doesn't read it for some reason) What am i missing here?
Here are the files for my config.

He comprobado por si había cortocircuito y no encontré ningunoLa tierra la tengo conectada de todos los cables blindados en una sola punta dentro de la caja de control en una barra de tierra que a su vez esta conectada a la tierra de la redEl problema fue cuando conectar el thcad2 antes de conectarlo, estuve cortando y todo funcionaba bien también es verdad que lo conecta y no lo configuré en linuxcnc por el hecho, que no encontráis la pantalla de thcad2 en pncconf y no se como configurarlo en .hal y solamente le di hacer una prueba arrancando la antorcha y ya los motores no se movían al instante.

ya pedí los chips pero me gustaría encontrar lo que a producido el fallo antes de que me pase lo mismo. Podrías ayudarme. Gracias de nuevo

Thanks for the link.
Looking at locale.

LC 2.9.2:
Menu-config has an extra step for setting locale.
When en_AU is selected, a pop-up shows C.UTF and en_AU.UTF, adds a warning about setting locale, then Ok to accept en_Au.
Then locales are generated before returning to the menu-config dialog.

LC 2.9.4
The extra step is not present.
The return to the dialog is too quick to see if a locale is generated.

Research on Debian locale seems to require editing of files.
I will start reviewing this tomorrow (and re-read the reference link).
