That was expected and just warnings. You can add what it complains about to the ini file later.
But it errors on a missing "postgui_call_list.hal" file
Didn't you copy that one over? All used hal files from the old config need to come over.

ok I understand the philosophy
last year, when I needed to use the RC_gen functionality, maybe you, the ad hoc file was created for me... I thought that the various .pin files had already configured all the features that are listed on the hostmot2 page of linuxcnc
thanks again for your availability

@tommylight,

So, there would not be an error file/log generated I could look for?

Cheers,

Dave

Perhaps try this:

Save your config files somewhere very safe.

Open your PC and remove all unnecessary hardware (except the GPU).

Reinstall LinuxCNC from the official ISO. (The latest version, or perhaps some earlier version).

Set CPU governor to performance.

Run latency test.

See if latency is improved.

Changing the scaling govenor to performance reduced my latency a noticable amount.

Now i try 

in my bios conf i have:
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology: Disabled
Turbo Mode: Disabled
CPU C3 Report: Disabled
CPU C6 Report: Disabled    

i need to enable all for change governor?
  
i have another SSD ready with same version of linuxcnc 2.9.4 i try to install kernel 6.6 for test, make monolithic for first if see error go modular kernel with initrd image with SATA driver in.

dammit spyder i thought i had more time before you would start asking about qtdragon

im working on a thing for easy GUI switching, but in the mean time you can use this as a reference because i know it works and its pretty close to what the config is you want.

github.com/Expatria-Technologies/remora-...hal/remora-flexi.ini

github.com/Expatria-Technologies/remora-...figSamples/flexi-hal

There's a rough key in the firmware names

ST stepper
SV servo (= PWM/Encoder)
SS Smart Serial
UA UART

And then numbers indicating how many of each kind of module is included

You could make a script with mesaflash to create matching pinout  files

somethign like:

sudo mesaflash --device 7i90hd --epp --addr 0x378 --write $1.bit --reload
sleep 3
sudo mesaflash --device 7i90hd --epp --addr 0x378 --readhmid > %1.pin

Just make sure you just write epp configurations...

 

Ok so by installing Linuxcnc 2.9 and probe basic it won't change any of the original Linuxcnc 2.8 and axis stuff I have?

Set fan profile to max in BIOS.

Don't boot from a USB key.

Use a real SATA or SCSI HDD/SSD.

Stress uses 100% CPU time, but not 100% CPU power.

Use mprime for a real stress test (NOTE: it may melt your PC).

But because it runs at a lower priority than LinuxCNC does, neither will make a big difference (assuming unlimited cooling capability).

Hello,

Iam using EK1100 coupler and EL1008 for inputs and EL2008 to outputs, i try make in .hal file the configuration to use external buttons for Start and Emergency, how i can make in .hal file to link the rights io's ins .hal file.

Thanks for the help. 

If you are using stepconf, just change the GUI dropdown and save changes.

(Make a copy of config first just in case)

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Solved need editing txt to upload to NVEM with DMA options, but for make signals need oscilloscope and function generator.

I regret to inform you, but maybe a better closing statement would be - "and there is almost no chance it starts up. A starting point"

Attached is the LinuxCNC Errors report that comes from trying to run the config with "DISPLAY = qtvcp qtdragon". The forum will not let me put the error in the code quotes as it thinks it's spam being posted. Any suggestions as to what needs to be done to start to fix the mess?
