Thank you for this answer , that means i can use the 7i97t and connect as much cards that i need together or does something like limit exist for this combination ? Or is it better to wait for the 7i77 to get available ?

if someone know to edit ini and rack_change.ngc files according to my y positions for tool 4,5,6 here are my files.thank you


 

I tested with gmoccapy and dragon.

The MOV doesn't work. The spindle and the normal feed work with enc3.

# ---Überschreibung von Signalen zum Mesa-Geber - mpg (feed override signals to mesa encoder - mpg)---

net fo-count <= [HMOT](CARD0).7i73.0.0.enc1.count

# Vorschub-Override-Schritte verbinden - MPG (connect feed override increments - MPG)

setp halui.feed-override.direct-value false
setp halui.feed-override.scale .01
setp halui.feed-override.count-enable true
net fo-count => halui.feed-override.counts

# ---max Geschwindigkeit Neufestsetzungs-Signale an Mesa Encoder - mpg (max velocity override signals to mesa encoder - mpg)---

net mvo-count <= [HMOT](CARD0).7i73.0.0.enc3.count

# verbinde max Geschwindigkeit Neufestetzung Inkrement - MPG (connect max velocity override increments - MPG)

setp halui.max-velocity.direct-value false
setp halui.max-velocity.scale 0.666667
setp halui.max-velocity.count-enable true
net mvo-count => halui.max-velocity.counts

That's true, but I'd like to have the buttons because that's the configuration I've had until now.
What kind of relay do I need?

The space between 3 and 4 do not agree to say that it is possible to divide by 111I would like all 6 tools to work, the delta between 1,2,3 is 111mm, so there is a gap, so the same delta raster between 4,5,6 is also 111mm, so the distance between 3 and 4 is 317mm...I will post the script for the first 3 tools later...if I copy and put an additional [change position delta 2]' in the ini file with ``if<current_tool GT 3>`` it doesn't work

Did you try asking on cnczone.com and cncecke.de ?

You already have that with the 3 position switch.
If you want to use momentary switches for it, might need to add relays.

7i92TM + 7i77 is functionally the same as 7i97T, but with more IO so no need for 7i84.
The IDC26 connector can be used for other Mesa boards, like 7i85 or 7i85S or 7i74 etc, or a simple BOB can also be used and this will limit what pin can be used as input and output and limit the stepgen and/or encoder count rate, but still can be used for plenty things like switches, sensors, relays, etc.

Hello, I've bought my first VFD, a Vevor A2 8015 1.5kW model, for a 0.75kW, 1000rpm motor for my mini lathe. I've configured the most basic options and added an external potentiometer and a 3-position switch for forward and reverse.
I'd like to add two momentary switches, one for start and one for stop. Is that possible with my VFD? Can anyone help me with this?

I've attached the manual.

Is the gap a multiple of existing tool distances?
If yes, set it as tool (4 i think in your case) and just do not use tool 4 in post, and even if someone asks for tool 4 no damage should be done as the spindle does not go that low.

Here is how you assign the encoder value to the PDO variable
 

You decide yourself which SDOs and PDOs you need and want to have.
I propose to have zero SDOs to start with and only one PDO which is the hardware counter number.

 

You see at ther bottom in the figure, the save/restore button. Download all files, it will create a zip file with al you need.
Unpack those seven? files in lib/soes-esi and rebuild the code. Take the xml file to TwinCat and program the eeprom there.

You decide yourself which Vendor Id. Product code, etc etc you want to have.
Some sizes you should not change, it tells you in the mouse-over comment.

The config struct can look like this
 

And the loop()
 
A lot of clean-up  yes.

I can confirm that Innovance SV660N works by recompiling the IGH etherlab master stable-1.6 branch and installing on a fresh debian bookworm installation.
The configuration options I have used for the etherlab master are:
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ --disable-8139too --enable-userlib --enable-generic --disable-eoe

Thank you nanowhat.

Hello and thank you for your reply.
My encoder seems good and with the help of AI I modified the SPI to match my setup. I started from your E7000 version and made some cleaning of the main.cpp.
I went too fast and test in Twincat, I can see the device but its stuck in INIT mode yet. not surprising. I think the old eeprom is still there because in twincat, in the device I can see 8 inputs and 8 outputs, what I had on the original board.
I think I need to build the eeprom stuff correctly but I have absolutely no clue how to do it.

My github is up to date.
Do you have more information regading SDos and PDOs ? How to know what to write?

Thank you

HI Fdarling,
I actually tried to modify lcec to work with Yaskawa Sigma7 EtherCAT drive looking at the C program you have shared. I have had a little success.
I added a second domain (domain2) into lcec master but at the same time removed the write Pdos (status, actual_pos) from the lcec XML file. So the domain2 is empty pdos.
After doing this, I could enable the drive using drivecontrol regs. Although I cannot read anything from the drive (ofcourse).
Now the next step is to figure out how to add which domain to use information in the pdo configuration. I am going to try to make it backwards compatible.
I am open to all suggestions and any assistance on how to go about this task.
