Well, this is interesting. Homing is now able to be a user defined module thanks to Dewey Garrett
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/08ac...b0cd47dc0eedfbc36785

Docs:  linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man9/homecomp.9.html

This sounds like what is required.

Hi Rod,

Thanks for you're very detailed instructions on how to install ethercat and linuxcnc . Worked perfectly!

Also, I totally agree, this github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/08ac...b0cd47dc0eedfbc36785  
is very interesting. I think this would be way more elegant than forcing the code to ignore the homing error and would keep everything in one place rather than spread out over several files. Being able to eliminate having to create an ini variable and allow one to focus on dropping through the homing states is also nice.  Thanks Garret Dewey! 

I've posted my homing.c file, it's a bit of a mess but you can see how I dropped through the homing states.

Dan

The previous homing.c file name  looked weird. Try this one.

CiA402 is a standard that specifies a set of registers and what they do.
So yes, you still need to define them in the ethercat xml file in the first instance.
The cia402.comp of Dominic's brings that standard structure into hal.

sqmathelete (Dan) and I are working on a replacement homing module using the new homecomp.comp in master branch.
Don't hold your breath as its very early days.
If we are successful, the cia402.comp will be likely redundant. It still relies on standard homing.c and it makes a mess of what is needed to home internally so the ability to install our own version of homing.c in the ini file will be very exciting.

EDIT: But the amazing foundation work by Dominc in cia402.comp is a very important part of the proposed module.

Yes, I believe so. You just need to make sure the pins required by the component are defined by SDO's in your XML

Dominic has an example XML on his repo

Hi to all;

I think I mentioned it somewhere else in some linuxcnc forum but...

Now this is not an open source thing but it works and solves the problem with the CIA402;
www.axelsoftware.it/en/logiclab/
I can hook the plc to the LinuxCNC HAL and do the homing with the drives; then let LinuxCNC take the actual pos;


best regards
