XHC-WHB04B-6 Help needed

Hi,

I've quickly commented (hashed) out all lines under this section of Matilda001.hal.
Unfortunatley, the behavior is still the same.
Not sure what to do next.

have you skype ?
team viewer ?

Did you use a buildbot instal or a run in place ?

All the error i see in your picture is signal already linked so you need to found solution for unconnect this signal from other place

sorry, I only saw half of your reply when I hit send on my previous reply.
I will now check the pendant file and reset it to it's original state and follow your additional suggestions and report back when I have run it again.
I don't have skype but I could set it up if that is easier. (I would need to get a webcam).

If you use run in place (compiling linuxcnc yourself) a file need a copy past in rules folders ! (no need if you install from apt-get)

sudo cp /home/pi/emc/debian/extras/lib/udev/rules.d/*.* /etc/udev/rules.d

SUCCESS!!!!!!!!

I went back to the pendant file ie the one I posted most recently and then simply changed:

#net machine.is-on halui.machine.is-on whb.halui.machine.is-on

to:

net machine.is-on halui.machine.is-on whb.halui.machine.is-on

saved the file and started LinuxCNC to check and WOOOHOOO! I have encoder counts!

I cannot thank you enough, this has been a very steep learning curve so far, but the pendant was the thing that really tripped me up.

I'm sure this is not the last issue I will have with configuring LinuxCNC on my machine, but at least I feel confident to go forwards and get the rest of it sorted. Especially knowing that the expertise is only a message away.

Thank you so much. You have literally saved my project.

Hi, is it possible to somehow change the sense of turning the wheel when jogging?
Example:
select axis A =>
wheel rotate to +
but i need axis A rotate to -

Hi

Maybee using this component :

github.com/robEllenberg/linuxcnc-mirror/...mponents/invert.comp

loadrt invert    names=invert.a
addf invert.a    servo-thread

net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts    whb.axis.a.jog-counts    invert.a.in
net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts-inverted     invert.a.out     axis.a.jog-counts 


totaly untested

Br

 net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts    whb.axis.a.jog-counts    invert.a.in
net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts-inverted     invert.a.out     axis.a.jog-counts 
 

Error. The jog-counts is type s32 and component Invert is type float.

 
The following example works, but with a feature:
net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts    whb.axis.a.jog-scale    invert.a.in
net pdnt-axis.A.jog-counts-inverted     invert.a.out     axis.a.jog-scale

Selective incremental wheel 
0.001 => 5
0.01 => 1
0.1 => 0.1
1 => 0.01
5 => 0.001
 

Hi,
I just read your chat regarding your XHC-WHB issue. You solved the problem and wrote "SUCCESS!!!!!!!!". I don't undestand what you changed. I have the same (or similar) problem and don't know how to solve it.
