Getting joint 0 following error?

More
28 Mar 2020 23:07 #161856 by Catch22
So I have Linuxcnc with Mesa 5i25 and 7i77 boards with BE25A20 AMC drives.
I have removed the timing belts on the sem DC brushed servo motors.
I have wired all the drives and limit switches and when I try to jog the servo motors the z axis motor turns both + and - but the x and y only turn when I jog the + and nothing when I hit the - button. I also get a joint 0 following error when the - button is pressed. Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening.
Thanks Mike

I dont see anything obvious wrong in the hal or ini files

Do the encoders read properly if you disable the drives and rotate the motor by hand?
Do the servos hold position when enabled by LinuxCNC (and resist applied force)?

There are no encoders, I have glass scales I'm using. And I haven't checked to see if the servo's are holding position, but I will check that out tomorrow.

I'm trying to run in torque mode, and use the linear glass scales for feedback, but I also have tachs so I could run in volocity mode if that would be better.
Thanks Mike

I would expect velocity mode to be easier to tune (but you will need to get the tach polarity right and tach scaling set right)

Didn't realize you had linear scales, that does make safe initial testing a bit harder.

One thing you could do with the motors disconnected is move the linear axis by hand
with the LinuxCNC running and drives enabled (but disconnected mechanically)
the motors should run in direction that opposes your movement of the linear axis
(you may have to increase the following error limits in the INI file for this test and
general tuning)

So I should just change this in every axis
MIN_FERROR = 0.05
To say 0.100
