I'm trying to execute an M100 from this toolchange subroutine, whithout M100 works. Here is the M100 and it works in MDI, what can cause the hang? 

#!/bin/bash
# M100 Orient Spindle (Homing function)
halcmd sets s-index-zero-for-ATC true
exit 0

 
 

Thank you Andy, but I can not gain access to the X-Motor or spindle- probably to the Z spindle and move the Z-axis, I will try. So jogging the X-axis slowly must do the job.

Alex, try
nn being the number you want to set. There is also an upload. Sometimes it is better to do it outside of linuxcnc.
Check for SDO index:subindex using $ "ethercat -p 2 sdos"

Max, did you try to claim it with "AliExpress Seller Protection"?

Philip, the manual says it can be done see snippet here
 
You should be able to add PDO 0x60ff to the SyncManager listing in the config, I think.
0x60ff is also in rxpdo 1703,1704,1705 so one of them should work. I guess.

Glad it's all working now.

To change isolcpus you edit /etc/default/grub as root

Something like:

xed admin:///etc/default/grub

 or

sudo xed /etc/default/grub

and then in the grub file change this line

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

To something like:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash isolcpus=3 idle=poll"

(3 assuming you have a 4 core CPU)

When you have saved your changes, you run:

sudo update-grub

and then reboot

Also with RealTek MACs it's likely that you will need to replace the normal RealTek
Ethernet driver with the DKMS version (search the forum for DKMS)

One additional step to improve Ethernet latency is to pin the Ethernet interrupt
to the last (real-time) CPU

To get an idea of Ethernet latency, you can run this command:

sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -q -c 60000 (card_ip_address)

This will run for 1 minute and then print statistics
 (card_ip_address) is the motions control cards IP address
