Hi Stenly, I bought these Signal converter . They cost a lot more than I wanted to spend but at the time I thought I was going to get it going quicker. Approx $130USD each. The Aikron ones might be worth the gamble. Or if you are more tech savvy than I am currently then the ones jochen has linked would be a option. Here is their reply to my email for the ones I bought.

"Your calculations are very helpful.  The HEIDENHAIN LS 486C has a 20µm resolution glass which, as you correctly calculated, will produce a 10Khz signal at 12m/min.  I have attached a data sheet showing the federate limits of each interpolation version for your reference.  You can choose any interpolation option from 0.5x to 5x.  The 5x interpolation model (SA 1872) will provide you with a 1µm TTL output signal. "

In all likelihood they just have the chip jochen has linked

Got it to build. The install script, as far as I can tell it doesn't bring in libclothoid3d and libscurve
When I did that manually (path here forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...orm?start=170#323932) and copied that to the empty directories the code builds.

hal functions

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Thank you! That did the trick!
I'm currently getting familiar with the HAL Scope.

After displaying the encoder position and the stepgen feedback position, I noticed that the stepgen was counting positive while moving in the positive direction.
I corrected this by adding a minus sign in front of the STEP_SCALE.

However, this caused the motor to spin in the positive direction during homing.
I fixed that by removing the negative signs from the homing and latching velocities.
There probably is a nice way to fix that, isn't there?

Edit: I've added working .hal and .ini files for future Reference. (only X has encoder feedback)

Which kernel version is best for real time?

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

The thing is a newer kernel will only have better performance if there has been significant changes in the area that are being used in your application. Changes to filesystems you don't use, drivers you don't or in architectures you don't use don't expect any improvements.
To be really sure you have to read change logs and stuff like that to be sure. Newer may very well be the same as what was supplied with the Linuxcnc ISO.
Oh and don't run any other network services that you use for your motion controller, in your case you should have a dedicated NIC for Remora and another for everything else.
I still don't know why people insist on using 3rd party remote desktop clients when X is actually was designed from networking from the beginning and there are plenty of available clients and servers in the distro repos that have been time tested.
Running a CNC machine remotely is a another kettle of fish. If you need to do remote admin use SSH and learn to get comfortable with the command line.

None of the axis are moving - using mesa 7i92t with 7i76u

Yes, the field I/O section of a 7I76 is a Sserial device (basically a 7I84 but local)

Hi PCW
Yes, I did set it to zero :)
I did not know that Smart Serial Ports were needed to make anything io cards work.
I thought Smart Serial IO was to link via serial connectivity to some kind of remote daughter board.
I shall search on the forum to find out more about it.
Many thanks for your help :)
Much appreciated.

Looks like you set the number of sserial ports to 0, disabling the 7I76 field I/O

Slight correction: Apparently the FreeCAD-bundle repo is being phased out, weekly builds are moving to releases in the main repo: github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases

And yes, stuff is regularly improving in FreeCAD.

do not use inexpensive power supplies, not worth the headache they cause, the time wasted finding they are the problem, nor the damage they might cause, and some are danger to life by not being isolated from the mains.
 

Definitely this! Bad power supplies are a nightmare. Maybe they work OK. Maybe they just die early. Worse cases are fire/shock, impossible-to-diagnose issues, dying and taking your entire system with it, etc. Some of the cheap supplies are terrifyingly bad.

Years back I was working with Intel NUCs in an automotive application. They would have all sorts of strange behavior- crashes, reboots, stuttering, video artifacts, ...- when run off a cheap inverter. Apparently the inverter was sufficient to cause problems... after going through the 110Vac -> 19V DC adapter, and the internal 19Vdc -> 12/5/3.3/1.8Vdc converters.


Slightly more on topic, I've got a fanless Celeron PC like this one (looks like it at least, I don't have the exact model, but it's a J6412 chipset): www.amazon.com/HUNSN-Fanless-Industrial-...g/dp/B0CGLR51SL?th=1
 It's... fine. Jitter numbers are nothing special (~30000 ns IIRC), but I also haven't had any thermal issues with it. I admittedly haven't watched the CPU temperature directly to have hard data to back that up, and my shop space is stably at a relatively low temperature. I specifically wanted fanless so there was no place for dust, metal chips, etc. to ingress.

I suspect you can lock the CPU frequency at the lowest to keep temps down, though I haven't bothered.

Hi PCW

"When using pncconf you would setup the I/O on the 7i76 TB5 and TB6 tabs ..."

Ah, we must be looking at different software outcomes, because I have no TB5 and TB6 tabs :)

Maybe the menus are dynamically generated by the selected choices?

Attached are images of the two drop down choices that I have available

Which options should I be selecting (for a 7i92t with a 7i76u directly attached)?

for board:  7i92-internal-data (is the one I was using (does it refer to the 7i92t? or the 7i76u? )
for firmware: I have tried the first two, and the last one
None of them generated any TB5 and TB6 tabs.

Nope won't work. Well one can't delete files but you can also not create new files or write to files during the build, so the build fails.
The right thing is to fix the build so this doesn't happen.

Yes that is the correct place to put it.

You do not use the GPIO pins on P1 or P2, these are for communication with the 7I76

When using pncconf you would setup the I/O on the 7i76 TB5 and TB6 tabs and the hal file connections
would look like this:

# --- MIN-HOME-X ---
net min-home-x     <=  [HMOT](CARD0).7i76.0.0.input-13

# --- MIN-HOME-Y ---
net min-home-y     <=  [HMOT](CARD0).7i76.0.0.input-14

# --- MIN-HOME-Z ---
net min-home-z     <=  [HMOT](CARD0).7i76.0.0.input-15


7I76 Inputs 13,14,15 are TB6 pins 14,15,16  (7I76U manual page 9)
