[Emc-users] Hostmot2 configuration - was Stepper Configuration

2008-08-14 Thread Eric H. Johnson
Hi all, I am getting following errors on my axes testing the hostmot2 driver in a 2 axis stepper configuration, and am trying to determine if it is a problem in the configuration, or a problem with the hostmot2 driver. The hostmot2 configuration is specified as: loadrt hostmot2 debug_idrom=1

Sebastian, One more quick question. When you say the pinout is written to the system log, which log is that? I don't see it through dmesg or by setting debug to the maximum value. Regards, Eric - This SF.Net email is

Sebastian, I replied off list because the log files were too large for this list. At any rate, I captured the dmesg log by running dmesg dmesg.txt Right after running EMC. The syslog file looks like everything since I first booted the system this morning. The last entry is at 13:10 (1:10

Sebastian, So the PWMs appear on the P2 connector, but the Step generators appear on P4? I have the P4 connector going to a 7i37 to handle the high voltage I/O. So I guess I have to move that cable to P3 and remap the I/O. It looks like the TTL I/O can map to either P2 or P4, but it does mean I

Peter, For this project, using all three connectors is fine, it was already wired that way because of the pinout of the standard m5i20 driver. I was just hoping to eliminate one cable and the associated termination. For my next project it would be really nice if I could get all of the I/O onto
