I am not in a position to test your sequence of commands to emcrsh right now, but it looks pretty basic so I would be surprised if it is specifically with that sequence. Are you entering those commands through a telnet session, i.e. manually typing them?
First thing to do would be to use one of the standard configurations, like stepper_inch, and only change it by adding "loadusr emcrsh" to the associated hal file. This can isolate the problem from emcrsh specifically with something to do with your specific configuration. If the problem persists, try removing the update command. Also, why are you doing a "set estop off" after a "set machine on"? BTW, you can use "set echo off" to eliminate the command echo. Regards, Eric Hi! I found some troubles using Emcrsh program. The detailed description is here http://www.linuxcnc.org/component/option,com_kunena/Itemid,20/func,view/cati d,38/id,13940/lang,english/ In addition, my Emc software version was initially not latest 2.4.6, but version packed into liveCD image. I then update it to 2.4.6 but no difference. I can't test version 2.4.7, because mentioned in announce 'Debian packages are availble from the regular package servers' i can't find anywhere. When i build from source, i see Emcrch binary, but don't see Emc main executable (probably due to i don't have real-time developement libs). I try to substitute Emcrsh 2.4.7 binary into existing Emc2 2.4.6 instalation, but still no success. I also notice that increase Base_period from 100000 to 500000 mostly solves this problem (but not completely solves), but software stepgens not work anymore with it. I disable all i found relevant to problem in my BIOS setup (USB, sound, CPU features, etc.) but no difference. Jitter is: 3100 ns when idle, and up to 6700 ns when i abuse computer (glxgears etc). (these values taken after i moderately modify BIOS settings). No jitter peaks i notice. I have Intel Celeron E14 06FD 2.0GHz CPU and Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L motherboard. Onboard videocard used. I use cheap parallel port step drivers. I have 4 axis. My initial setup was standard liveCD EMC2 which work out-of-box, and i am able to mill without any problem, when not use Emcrsh. I am very novice in EMC, RTAI and machining at all.
