How do I control the speed and acceleration of the analog output of the 7i77 ?

I can't find a suitable configuration so that the analog output can control the correct movement of the punching machine's piston. How do I solve this?Summary of what I'm trying to control:The piston that hits the punches is hydraulic, but it has an actuator that controls its descent and ascent by applying analog voltage of -10 volts and +10 volts, where +10 volts goes up and -10 volts goes down. However, unlike a motor, when there is no voltage at all, the piston descends gradually. To keep it high, a voltage above 2 volts positive will always be necessary.Hardware information: the sensor that detects the movement of the piston hitting the punches is magnetic and provides an analog output voltage, being 0 volts when it descends completely and 8 volts when it rises completely. This position voltage is connected to the THCAD2 electronic board that converts it into frequency. This frequency is used in channel 0 of the 7i77 electronic board's encoder, which is configured as This reading is being shown on the display after the following modification I'm worried that the problem is because was disconnected since it is being used to report the position, will the 7i77 electronic board work without net z-vel-fb?

Below is information that may helpWhen I manually jog the Z axis to 1mm or 5mm, it makes no difference in the actual movement of the piston, it always moves the same and the Z axis calculation error appearsWhen I manually jog the Z axis to 1mm

 Piston hitting the punches in the position after a 5mm jog  I have been working on this machine retrofit for over 2 years, unfortunately here in Brazil I have not found qualified labor to perform this service. If I cannot resolve this step I will have to give up on LinuxCNC. I am willing to pay if someone resolves this situation. Even so, I thank all the contributions from the Forum and Mr. Peter.

One thing I see is that the Z encoder scale is off by orders of magnitude.
If you are using the ~100 to 900 KHz range of the THCAD2, I would expect
and encoder scale to be roughly 800,000 / Z_motion_range.

What is the Z motion range for 0 to 10V out from your sensor?

It addition the scale may need to be negative. This is the first thing to get setup correctly

Also as I mentioned, you may need to feed the encoder velocity signal through LinuxCNCs
offset component to remove the offset at 0V

I put the value 800 in the scale encoder, but it continues to display a calculation error message on the axis, but the axis moves a little, below is the video showing the result



Regarding another question, sorry for my lack of knowledge, do you have any example of how to: feed the encoder velocity signal through LinuxCNCs
offset component to remove the offset at 0V ?





















 

You still did not answer what the Z motion range was

Anyway say its 50 mm and using the /32 tap that's
a encoder scale of ~415

When tuning you need to loosen the following error limits
and have some reasonable output scale value:TYPE = LINEAR
HOME = 0.0
FERROR = 50
MIN_FERROR = 50
MAX_VELOCITY = 25.0
MAX_ACCELERATION = 750.0
P = 50.0
I = 0.0
D = 0.0
FF0 = 0.0
FF1 = 1.0
FF2 = 0.0
BIAS = 0.0
DEADBAND = 0.0
MAX_OUTPUT = 0.0
ENCODER_SCALE = 415 # estimate with THCAD /32 and 50 mm full motion
OUTPUT_SCALE = 10
OUTPUT_MIN_LIMIT = -10.0
OUTPUT_MAX_LIMIT = 10.0
#MIN_LIMIT = -100.0
#MAX_LIMIT = 0.01
MIN_LIMIT = -15000.0 # these should be some reasonable numbers one you get the encoder scale correct
MAX_LIMIT = 15000.0
HOME_OFFSET = 0.0
loadrt offset
addf offset.0.update-feedback servo-thread
addf offset.0.update-output servo-thread

setp offset.0.offset -5671.078   # for /32net z-pos-fb_with_offset <= hm2_7i96s.0.encoder.00.velocity #New Line
net z-pos-fb_with_offset => offset.0.in
net z-pos-fb <= offset.0.out
net z-pos-fb => joint.1.motor-pos-fb
net z-index-enable joint.1.index-enable <=> hm2_7i96s.0.encoder.00.index-enable
net z-pos-rawcounts <= hm2_7i96s.0.encoder.00.rawcounts

Answer: Sorry, I didn't understand the question, due to the automatic language translator. But you got it right, 50mm, in the photo below.

 

regarding the model code it worked! the Z axis movement works without error. Thank you
