Leadshine EL8 Servo motor clonking sound and motion

Leadshine EL8 Servo motor clonking sound and motion was created by Will_cnc
Current Setup:
- Raspberry Pi 5
- 3 × Leadshine EL8 Servo Drives and 400W Motors
Problem:
I’ve recently set up LinuxCNC on a Raspberry Pi 5 and configured it to use the Probe Basic user interface.I’m experiencing an issue where the servo drives occasionally disconnect. The main symptom is that the motors sometimes make a “clonking” sound while running, as if there’s a mechanical fault and judder under movement . Power-cycling the system (turning it off and back on) sometimes clears the issue, and the motors then run normally.
Could this problem be caused by poor latency on the Raspberry Pi 5, or possibly by the EtherCAT network going out of sync?Any advice or suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Show ethercat-conf.xml, please.
You probably need to add synchronization with DC clock.

Is synchronisation something that has to be set up on the PI or is it configured within the .xml file ?

Its here, just add a negative sign, minus-sign, like below
refClockSyncCycles="-5">
