Homing lichuan

Hello,
I try to homing lichuan stepper with ethercat with no-luck. I follow this : github.com/rodw-au/cia402_homecomp & github.com/marcoreps/linuxcnc_leadshine_EL8 I can move / jog the motor, but if home button pressed, nothing happen on the motor.
Please check hal & xml file.

Regards,
Jadid

 
 

If you are following Rods method why are you not using his 'cia402_homecomp.comp' he describes on his page?

if I use cia402_homecomp, I got following error during lcnc start :
parameter or pin 'joint.0.request-custom-homing' not found

I can solve above error by changing to :

#net x-home-request joint.0.request-cia402-homing => cia402.0.home
setp joint.0.request-cia402-homing true
net x-homing joint.0.is-cia402-homing <= cia402.0.stat-homing
net x-homed joint.0.cia402-homing-finished <= cia402.0.stat-homed

but the motor still not move.

1. Open the 'show halconfiguration' tool and check if the 'cia402_homecomp' component and its pins have been created.

2. Start linuxcnc from a terminal, select your config and check for errors:

Using Marco custom-homing, got this following hal-show, but motor didn't move.
You can see that opmode already change from 8 to 6.

Aciera,
I also try to follow your explanation here : forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/52968-help-n...oming-setup?start=30

I got : "waiting for joint 0 to finish homing ...", but motor not move.

Thx.

I'm afraid jumping between different configs is not going to make things easier. Either follow Rods method or Marcoreps then post your hal and ini files and make a screenshot of the relevant hal pins from the 'show halconfiguration' tool (those will be different depending on which method you chose).

Aciera,
I see this only happen with lichuan-stepper (CL3-E57H). The same setup can do drive-homing for lichuan-servo (LC20E).
