if we use the offset pose scheme this is how it could work for resume:

I think the biggest problem a new user has is that the 5i25 is not in

The device is ads1218. In datasheet in timing specification diagram the CS line

this is not so elegant...

Hello!
There's a problem with my 7i43 + 7i48. Sometimes the encoders work but the
motors won't move properly, looks like analog outputs fault (it's enclosed,
hard to say more).
I noticed that CR08 led is blinking when the problem appears, otherwise
it's off. What for is CR08 on 7i48?
Thanks,
That makes sense...

I have two motor drivers (for axis 4 and 5) which have alarm signal telling me
that motor is off position, and would like to connect that in linuxcnc, so when
it is active it would trigger following error for certain axis. Which hal pin
can I use for that input signals to connect on to?

Motors are step/dir controlled hybrid steppers that have encoder, and encoder
feedback goes only to drivers so linuxcnc doesn't see actual position, and the
only thing I could use is alarm signal from driver that would trigger linuxcnc
to stop.
If it helps, this is driver used in system:

You can actually reconfigure LinuxCNC on the fly, including changing

Great job Michael!
It may not be apparent for those still running RTAI on a dated kernel,
but porting a complex, obviously useful application like LinuxCNC to not
only run under a variety of real-time environments but to do so with the
same compiled code is a huge accomplishment!
Best of luck

And to add fuel to the Mach4 fire. They are planning a cost of around
$1000 - $2000 for a single seat. This is where they will fall out the
