Ethercat protocol not responding was created by akg1904
Hi,

I've been trying to get linuxcnc working via the ethercat protocol but am a little stuck.

I've installed Ethercat following the guide linked below:
forum.linuxcnc.org/ethercat/45336-etherc...step-by-step?start=0

I believe I was successful in installing it because I got the following in terminal:

Command:
"halcmd show pin lcec"

Response:
Component Pins:
Owner   Type  Dir         Value  Name
     4  u32   OUT    0x00000001  lcec.conf.master-count
     4  u32   OUT    0x00000001  lcec.conf.slave-count


Command:
"ethercat cstruct"

Response:
/* Master 0, Slave 0
 * Vendor ID:       0x00000539
 * Product code:    0x02200301
 * Revision number: 0x00080019
 */

ec_pdo_entry_info_t slave_0_pdo_entries = {
    {0x6040, 0x00, 16},
    {0x607a, 0x00, 32},
    {0x6041, 0x00, 16},
    {0x6064, 0x00, 32},
};

ec_pdo_info_t slave_0_pdos = {
    {0x1601, 2, slave_0_pdo_entries + 0}, /* 2nd Receive PDO mapping */
    {0x1a01, 2, slave_0_pdo_entries + 2}, /* 2nd Transmit PDO mapping */
};

ec_sync_info_t slave_0_syncs = {
    {0, EC_DIR_OUTPUT, 0, NULL, EC_WD_DISABLE},
    {1, EC_DIR_INPUT, 0, NULL, EC_WD_DISABLE},
    {2, EC_DIR_OUTPUT, 1, slave_0_pdos + 0, EC_WD_ENABLE},
    {3, EC_DIR_INPUT, 1, slave_0_pdos + 1, EC_WD_DISABLE},
    {0xff}
};


So I proceeded to run linuxcnc (axis GUI) all went well with no error messages in terminal.
However when I tried to jog my servo motor, it didn't move.
I moved the motor by hand but there was no difference in the DRO reading on the display either.

Now I don't know what I have done wrong...
I have checked my wiring and all seems fine so I'm left thinking it has something to do with the configuration or integration.

I have attached my ini, hal and xml files for reference.

Has anyone faced a similar problem before or does anyone have any ideas of what might be going wrong???

Thanks in advance,

run linuxcnc from the command line and look for errors.
With linuxcnc running, in a new console window type ethercat slaves again and share. It should show a different status

Note: I have directly connected the servo drive to my PC without any Bus-Coupler like Bechkoff(EK 1100), etc...
Could this be causing any problems?

Abhishek

I think the slave state should change once linuxcnc is opened.
I can't help further.

As I can see from the info that the slave is refusing to change the state and I can't figure it out

If someone got this type of problem kindly help me out .

Thanks and Regards

one or more register from your slave can not be mapped to pdo, because the slave doesn'T support this.

what type of slave is this?

please post output from "ethercat pdos"
