Hi all,
I have on my hand some mitsubishi VFD with 550w winches.
I would like to try to move them using LinuxCNC.
the thing is not meant to be Real time, and I've read the modbus module
lives in User space and it's not RT.
So, my question:
Since it isn't RT, can I drive the rs485 thru a USB-rs485

Been using it for a long time also, and have never had it trash files.
But I'm also a vi kinda guy, been using it since the late 80's. ;-)

Yes, that should work. I run my control panel through a usb-rs232
converter. I have found the USB side to be a little sensitive to noise.
Very occasionally it will lose connection. At that point I need to
restart LCNC to reconnect which is a PITA. This is probably very
specific to my setup.
I never could figure out how to do anything in vi, it just stares back
at me like a windows word processor that I forget the name of did back when.

I am controling 8 VFDs on a single machine with Linuxchc through one USB-RS485
converter (from Automation direct). No real problems for me except some random
com errors. It works good enough though. I have not had to restart or
anything like that because of them. They do fill up an error

Some VFDs are huge electrical noise (EMI) generators.
I had an issue a few years ago with an Automation Direct VFD that
caused a lot of grief because of electrical noise that being pumped back
into the AC line.
You may want to consider putting a line filter in the AC line feeding
the VFD.
A friend of mine comments that vi is vile! However it is on every unix
system. I occasionally use vim but that makes it easier by adapting to
the dos keyboard, eg. arrows, backspace, etc.
