I am currently tuning a Linux CNC device to control the Ethercat motor. The motor driver I am using is absolute origin and does not require home. When I accidentally click on [home axis]  on axisUI, causing my coordinate system to be misaligned. For example, if the current point is 10.00 and the motor does not move after clicking [home axis], the current point becomes X0.0 on G53, which may cause collisions during subsequent program runs. How can I disable axisUI's [home axis] function, Either it becomes invalid after clicking, or it disappears.

If anyone knows what to do, please help me. Thank you.

HI,

I am searching for hardware solution for connecting most modern FANUC servos like 0i-F to PC-based NC.
Something similar to solution Dmitry (/dm17ry) does for Mitsubishi servos.

Hope someone will show me a way.

Hallo Hans,

I do like your modifications. I prefer the progress bar under the g-code.
About the Icon it's just a matter of taste IMHO, I do not like the black and white icon, but I also see the need to reorder the button to reduce mouse movement.

G-code Properties is a nice feature, witch I would like to see
Even knowing that the values shown are not correct in most cases. But they do give a first impresion!

About the File Chooser widget, I was thinking for long time about a Widget designed like the Midnight Commander but unfortunately I have not even started to write the first line of code .

Hey rod do you still have access to the code or remember how to build Linuxcnc from within the image builder or install packages that have been built, say I wanted to use the mesa & linuxcnc packages I have built on a RPi5 that follow the current code bases ?

What is SCFFIFO error ?

From memory, there is another kernel setting for something like embedded system that needs to be enbled on the pi's menu-config to build preempt_rt, I have not seen it for a long time as the option is always there now. its ARM specific
 

Another option is to let the RPi5 go through the boot process, check your DHCP for any entries that may be the said Pi and try to ssh into it.

First of all this is the first time I can recall this issue emerging.
I & many others I have used the image mentioned by the OP with no issues.

The screen going black isn't an indication that the Pi is bricked, there is a setting config.txt that controls whether you get the "rainbow" screen or not.

Generally there are issues which using the Rpi imager to write the image. If using windows Balena etcher is recommended, on Linux balena etcher can be used, dd is another alternative or whatever image writer that comes with your system.

To be pendantic, the bootloader is contained on the RPi board. As you have not mentioned any messages about of an out of date bootloader I doubt this is an issue.

One thing you could try, as you say you just recently bought a RPi5, is insert a blank SD card, connect an ethernet cable and boot. If you have the most recent bootloader the RPi5 should attempt to load an OS to the SD card via the internet.

One point to note, you get far far better bang for buck using a second hand corporate PC that a RPi5.
