The iocontrol manpage says: > iocontrol.0.user-enable-out > (Bit, Out) FALSE when an internal estop condition exists Experimenting with 2.7.0~pre6 here shows that user-enable-out follows the E-stop button in Axis, which is what i think you want. > Snippet of related config: > > loadrt trivkins > loadrt [EMCMOT]EMCMOT servo_period_nsec=[EMCMOT]SERVO_PERIOD > num_joints=[TRAJ]AXES > loadrt hostmot2 > loadrt hm2_pci config=" num_encoders=4 num_pwmgens=0 num_stepgens=3 > sserial_port_0=00xxxx" > setp hm2_5i25.0.watchdog.timeout_ns 5000000 > loadrt pid names=pid.x,pid.z,pid.s > loadrt abs names=abs.spindle > loadrt lowpass names=lowpass.spindle > loadrt scale names=scale.spindle > loadrt charge_pump > > addf charge-pump servo-thread > addf hm2_5i25.0.read servo-thread > addf motion-command-handler servo-thread > addf motion-controller servo-thread > addf pid.x.do-pid-calcs servo-thread > addf pid.z.do-pid-calcs servo-thread > addf pid.s.do-pid-calcs servo-thread > addf scale.spindle servo-thread > addf abs.spindle servo-thread > addf lowpass.spindle servo-thread > addf hm2_5i25.0.write servo-thread > > # ---Chargepump StepGen: 0.25 velocity = 10Khz square wave output--- > > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.dirsetup 100 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.dirhold 100 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.steplen 100 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.stepspace 100 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.position-scale 10000 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.step_type 2 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.control-type 1 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.maxaccel 0 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.maxvel 0 > setp hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.velocity-cmd 0.25 > > net charge-pump <= charge-pump.out => hm2_5i25.0.stepgen.02.enable > > # --- ESTOP-EXT --- > net estop-ext <= hm2_5i25.0.7i84.0.0.input-16 > > #net machine-is-enabled <= motion.motion-enabled > net machine-is-enabled charge-pump.enable <= motion.motion-enabled > > > # ---estop signals--- > > net estop-out <= iocontrol.0.user-enable-out > net estop-ext => iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in I think you want charge-pump.enable netted to iocontrol.0.user-enable-out, so that when the machine comes out of Estop, the charge-pump starts pumping. I dont understand why you're netting charge-pump.out to the stepgen enable, could that be the source of your troubles? The charge pump component makes a square wave all by itself, you don't need a stepgen inline. Just net the charge-pump.out to a gpio. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ One dashboard for servers and applications across Physical-Virtual-Cloud Widest out-of-the-box monitoring support with 50+ applications Performance metrics, stats and reports that give you Actionable Insights Deep dive visibility with transaction tracing using APM Insight. http://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/290420510;117567292;y _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
