Jogging  a joint is not allowed (because it will rack the gantry)

You can jog the Y axis but only after homing is complete.
So if you don't have dual homing switches you need to setup immediate homing

Also unless you have a rotary A axis, there should be no mention of A anywhere
It would be a lot less confusing to refer to the Y Axis as Y and Y1

Thanks very much Finnengineering.

That's good to hear. I'll have another play with it in Halshow and see if I can set that pin.

Found it...looks like i have the wrong version?

therman@Debian-LinuxCNC:~$ linuxcnc -v

LINUXCNC_DIR=

LINUXCNC - 2.9.0~pre1+git20230208.f1270d6ed7


Where can i download the correct version?

Where can i see the Linux Version?


therman@Debian-LinuxCNC:~$ mesaflash --device ethernet --addr 10.10.10.10

ETH device 7I76EU at ip=10.10.10.10

That's very odd

I am assuming this is LinuxCNC 2.9.4?

I just tested 2.9.4 and a 7I76EU an the pin names are all prefixed with hm2_7i76e
as expected

What does

mesaflash --device ethernet --addr 10.10.10.10 

report?

 

So I found a 7i77 on ebay. Put it in and all is good. I then tried qtplasmac and converted the old file to qtplasmac but no luck enabling the machine ! I did set the estop button to mode 2 but estop does not move and power button does not move. Same ini file settings work fine in linuxcnc axis mode. I have a physical estop by the way.

I did a complete uninstall and reinstall of LinuxCNC. After I went through the wizard and selected 7i76e, I ran LinuxCNC again and i got this error message;

./PM833TV.hal:10: parameter or pin 'hm2_7i76e.0.watchdog.timeout_ns' not found
Shutting down and cleaning up LinuxCNC...

The only way to get rid of this error is to change 7i76e back to 7i76 in the Hal and Ini files.  It doesn't like any references to 7i76e.

Is this the source of the issues?

Attaching my current Hal and Ini files.
