[Emc-users] XHC HB04 pendant stops updating its display
I am writing this again with a new hope :)
Problem with the pendant is that sometimes, when it is left untouched
for at least several seconds, it stops updating its display. For
example, when the program is running or machine is jogged by a keyboard.
And when you touch something on the pendant, the display updates.
Maybe somebody feels why this can happen?
By the way, my corrected driver is attached. Maybe someone could check
and probably include it in future versions of LinuxCNC?
I made corrections to the driver for the numbers to appear exactly the
same like in the usual UI - I added round functions.

Re: [Emc-users] XHC HB04 pendant stops updating its display
Yes, it is. The pendant is used daily on one 4-axis CNC metal milling machine. I created quite complex hal file for it. I can say the driver could do more, but the current setup works quite good. 2014.01.14 17:42, Sebastian Kuzminsky rašė: > This is your modified version of Frederic Rible's pendant driver? -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

[Emc-users] BBB 14: unexpected realtime delay on RT thread 1
I’m having an error resulting in missing steps so the layers I’m printing shift. The file I print is pretty big (17MB). But the error does not happen at the same hight. How can i find what’s happening? Do i need to switch off the screensaver for example? or is there something else i can check?

You're on the Beaglebone Black, running Xenomai? I'm not sure exactly what the realtime performance and jitter on that platform should be expected to me.

Re: [Emc-users] BBB 14: unexpected realtime delay on RT thread 1
Yes, the BeagleBone Black, the PRU is hat 10us step length and 1us step time. The servo task period, in nano sec is 100. When i run a latency test i get a jitter of approximately 56000 to 6 ns max Jitter I’ll disable the screensaver to check.

The latency you report is typical for the BeagleBone. The "unexpected realtime delay" is something I see occasionally on my systems. I haven't fully dug into the cause, but it seems like something in LinuxCNC has hard-coded jitter numbers and doesn't like the BeagleBone (which has higher IRQ jitter than a typical x86 system). I've never had it cause issues, however, and it is not correlated with a spike in latency as measured by either the LinuxCNC latency-test or the xenomai latency utility. I also run with the screen saver and display power management enabled on my BeagleBone and have not had any issues with "missed steps". I suggest you review the current setting on your stepper drivers, cooling on the stepper drivers, the mechanical system (make sure everything moves freely and can't bind), and review your machine setup. I did have to dial my acceleration down to around 2400 mm/s/s to avoid missing steps with some Slic3r generated infill gcode, but that had nothing to do with the BeagleBone, my steppers and drivers just weren't up to the task when running off 12V. -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

Re: [Emc-users] BBB 14: unexpected realtime delay on RT thread 1
Maybe the error generated has nothing to do with the missing steps per se, it just got me triggered. I have acceleration about 2000 and I’ll turn it down some more. Other parts got printed without problems. I’ll review the tension on my belts. On the arduino clone I have approx 1000 mm/s^2 because the extruder on the effector introduces some vibrations. My new frame is very rigid so everything will be transferred directly to the motor etc. My new extruder will be half the weight so I expect i’ll be able to do a but faster acceleration (if needed). The slic3r generated code (no arc although I have tried to generate with arc support) will slow down in the radii. but that’s to be expected.

The PRU code cannot cause an "unexpected realtime delay", since this is a message generated by the motion component. Since missing steps have no way to find their way back into HAL except if you are running a stepper servo loop with encoders (which you likely dont), this cannot be the source either. The logic for "unexpected realtime delay" is here: https://github.com/mhaberler/linuxcnc/blob/unified-build-candidate-3/src/emc/motion/control.c#L249 What motion does is: - observes its invocation interval over a window of samples, - once the window is filled with samples, start checking: - compare the current invocation time to all samples - if the current interval is longer than 1.2 of any of the samples then generate an "unexpected realtime delay" message. What you want to do is investigate the functions on the servo thread. see the 'show thread' and 'show param' commands http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/hal/tutorial.html, in particular the '.time' and '.tmax' values, which might give a hint which thread function takes too long. It might be worth looking at motion execution times, see the PARAMETERS section of http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man9/motion.9.html. - Michael >> The servo task period, in nano sec is 100. >> When i run a latency test i get a jitter of approximately 56000 to 6 ns >> max Jitter >> >> I’ll disable the screensaver to check. > > The latency you report is typical for the BeagleBone.

[Emc-users] added M106 and M109 for using fan and extruder waiting on temperature
I added rudimentary fan control and waiting in temperature control when using an extruder type machine. Somebody might find it useful. https://github.com/luminize/linuxcnc/commit/fe369d8883cc07e0d369ce4fc90bc77142bf999b Bas -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

What FPGA is in the 5I25?

Re: [Emc-users] XHC HB04 pendant stops updating its display
Marius, thank you for the patch. I have few others to integrate also. Yes, including it in LinuxCNC is on my todo list. I will try to boost the priority for that task. About the display, I have the same issue here. I believe it is link to some power saving feature. I do not know if we can find a fix. Somebody else has done nice work for this pendant here: http://forum.planet-cnc.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1125 Frederic.
