Spindle speed in Counterclockwise Wrong was created by Donno

I am setting and getting the spindle speed using Modbus. I use to get the spingde speed from Encoder A and Encoder B but need more input pins so i decided to get spindle speed using Modbus. Clockwise works as expected :

When doing counterclockwise :

Attachment not found

It seems to get a signed int and displays an unsigned int

How could i convert/change to correct value ? Here is my current code

Hal File

Code:

...
loadusr -W mb2hal config=mb2hal.ini
...
loadrt limit1 count=1
addf limit1.0 servo-thread
setp limit1.0.min -2500
setp limit1.0.max 2500
...
net spindle-cmd-rpm => limit1.0.in
net spindle-speed-limit limit1.0.out => mb2hal.SetSpeed.00
net spindle-cmd-rpm-abs <= mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float
...

mb2hal.ini

Code:

[MB2HAL_INIT]

INIT_DEBUG=3
HAL_MODULE_NAME=mb2hal
SLOWDOWN=0.0
TOTAL_TRANSACTIONS=2

[TRANSACTION_00]

LINK_TYPE=serial
SERIAL_PORT=/dev/ttyUSB0

MB_TX_CODE=fnct_16_write_multiple_registers

Thanks for your attention. I'm looking forward to your reply.

I'm pretty sure that the problem is about how (negative) numbers are internally formatted. If I remember correctly you need to send 2s complement signed numbers. I've had the same problem a while ago with an HMI via modbus but in my case this was easily solved since the HMI was able to 'read' 2s complement directly.

You then have 2 options: Either see if your VFD can directly send 2s complement values or find a way to convert the formatting. Sadly I cannot help much with the later.

This could work: linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/conv_u32_s32.9.html

If not have a look at the others components starting with 'conv' here: linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/

When I

Code:

setp conv-u32-s32.0.in mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float

I get following error

Code:

value 'mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float' invalid for U32

I also tried conv_float_s32 :

Code:

setp conv-float-s32.0.in mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float

with no luck

Code:

setp failed setting parameter 'conv-float-s32.0.in' to 'mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float' value 'mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float' invalid for float

For some reason sometimes you have to create a new signal (or use an existing one) instead of using setp when connecting pins. (This is somewhere in the HAL doc)

For example: setp conv-u32-s32.0.in mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float Does NOT work

Try instead
net speed-u32 <= mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float
net speed-u32 => conv-u32-s32.0.in
net speed-s32 <= conv-u32-s32.0.out

likewise for conv-float-s32

Or the short version

net speed-u32 mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float => conv-u32-s32.0.in

Code:

net speed-u32  mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float => conv-u32-s32.0.in

I still get an error

Code:

Signal 'speed-u32' of type 'float' cannot add pin 'conv-u32-s32.0.in' of type 'u32'

This is the code how i added the component

Code:

loadrt conv_u32_s32 count=1

I manage to get the linuxcnc going with

Code:

loadrt conv_float_s32  count=1
net speed-u32  mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float => conv-float-s32.0.in

But it did not manage to solve my problem

Attachment not found

Is there a way to do math in .hal file. So If mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float > 32 000 then -1(mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float-65,535) that will solve my problem

I started working on a formula So If mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float > 32767 then -1(mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float-65,535)

Code:

setp sum2.0.in1 -65536
net sum-speed mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float => sum2.0.in0
setp mult2.0.in1 -1
net multi-speed mult2.0.in0 => sum2.0.out
setp comp.0.in0 32767
net compare comp.0.in1 => mult2.0.out
net neg-speed mux2.0.in0 => comp.0.in1
net pos-speed mux2.0.in1 => mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float
net sel-speed mux2.0.sel => comp.0.out
net spindle-cmd-rpm-abs <= mux2.0.out

but i am getting stuck at

Code:

net neg-speed mux2.0.in0 => comp.0.in1
net pos-speed mux2.0.in1 => mb2hal.GetSpeed.00.float

Pin 'comp.0.in1' was already linked to signal 'compare'

Hallo Donno,

attached is a simple component that should do exactly what you need.

1.) Download and copy to your config folder
2.) Open terminal and cd to your config folder
3.) "sudo halcompile --install spindle_speed.comp" (linuxcnc-dev apt package required for this)
4.) add the following to your machine.hal

loadrt spindle_speed names=spindle-speed
addf spindle-speed servo-thread

5.) Create your net connections
