Subject: [Emc-users] Mesa (ethernet) wakeup issues

I'm having issues getting a Mesa 7i92 (early version) running on a new install (version 2.9.3):

- after several days of head-banging to get consistent network configuration, I can consistently ping the card (does lose packets, and shows intermittent delay times of up to ~2 seconds; I assume these are due to running in user space).

- after establishing communications, I used halrun to manually issue the setup commands that were generated by Pncconf:

halcmd: loadrt hostmot2

Note: Using POSIX realtime
hm2: loading Mesa HostMot2 driver version 0.15

halcmd: loadrt hm2_eth board_ip="10.10.10.10" config="num_encoders=1 num_pwmgens=0 num_stepgens=4"

hm2_eth: loading Mesa AnyIO HostMot2 ethernet driver version 0.2
hm2_eth: 10.10.10.10: INFO: Hardware address (MAC): 00:60:1b:12:07:cb
hm2_eth: discovered 7I92
hm2/hm2_7i92.0: Low Level init 0.15
hm2/hm2_7i92.0: 34 I/O Pins used:
hm2/hm2_7i92.0:     IO Pin 000 (P2-01): IOPort

    <snip>

hm2/hm2_7i92.0:     IO Pin 033 (P1-13): IOPort
hm2/hm2_7i92.0: registered

When I attempt to start LCNC, executing the the same commands in the .hal file, I inevitably get failures:

Found file(REL): ./milldrill.hal
hm2: loading Mesa HostMot2 driver version 0.15
hm2_eth: loading Mesa AnyIO HostMot2 ethernet driver version 0.2
hm2_eth: 10.10.10.10: INFO: Hardware address (MAC): 00:60:1b:12:07:cb
hm2_eth: ERROR: receiving packet: Resource temporarily unavailable

Shutting down and cleaning up LinuxCNC...

Any Ideas what might be going on?

Thanks

Watch the card when this happens.
My guess is that it is resetting because
of a 5V power issue.
