Re: [Emc-users] pncconf error under 2.7.14

I sent my 5i25 and 7i76 into Mesa to look at. Mesa boards may be more expensive than stuff from China, but you won’t get help from China like you do from Peter. Thanks, Peter > On Aug 23, 2018, at 4:38 PM, Peter C. Wallace wrote: > > On Thu, 23 Aug 2018, Condit Alan wrote: > >> Date: Thu,

Peter, Now the jumpers are as follows: 5i25 W1-Down, W2-Up, W3-Up, W4-Up, and W5-Up 7i76 W1-Left, W2-Left, W3-Left, W4-Left, W5-Left and W6-Left and the separate 5V supply is disconnected. However, now the 5V LED is off. Alan > On Aug 23, 2018, at 4:38 PM, Peter C. Wallace wrote: > > On

I checked two of the 6footers and the short ribbon cable. They were all OK. > On Aug 23, 2018, at 2:31 PM, andy pugh wrote: > > On 23 August 2018 at 21:50, Condit Alan wrote: >> I have attached the output from mesaflash. > > Looks like a 2x7i76 firmware, so should be fine. > > Can you check

Re: [Emc-users] pncconf error under 2.7.14

I have attached the output from mesaflash. I have 4 or 5 25pin m-m cables. I have tried 3 different ones (new out of the bag (however made in china)). W1 is right, W3 is left. I just noticed that the 5V LED is pulsing bright then dim about every three seconds. > On Aug 23, 2018, at 10:57 AM,

Re: [Emc-users] pncconf error under 2.7.14

Peter, I have a separate 24V 2.5amp DIN rail power supply that powers fieldIO and a small pcb power supply (7805 plus a couple caps) that comes off of it to supply 5v power. I had the jumper in the wrong position for separate powers for field IO and separate 5v power. I changed that jumper. I

Re: [Emc-users] pncconf error under 2.7.14

No. That is what I noticed when I looked at the pins in Halshow. Then I tried to enable the limits and I got a missing pin hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.input-7. > On Aug 22, 2018, at 4:30 PM, andy pugh wrote: > > On 23 August 2018 at 00:28, Condit Alan wrote: >> So what is the remedy for this? > >

I forgot to add that I was building a lathe configuration, in case it is just a bug in that area. Thanks, Alan -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org!

[Emc-users] pncconf error under 2.7.14

I tried to use pncconf to configure linuxcnc to use a 5i25 with a single 7i76 (Board Name: 5i25-Internal Data and Firmware: 7i76x2 with 1 7i76). I chose to setup the "7i76-Analog Output" on tab TB4 and selected “Spindle Output” from the pull down list. When I invoke linuxcnc with that config,

I am using (2) 7i42TA boards as breakout boards to the 7i43. I have the estop-ext connected to P3-47(GPIO-47). I have one side of my estop switch connected to ground and the other side connected to P3-(TB2-23) (which should be P3-47 according to my reading). So, do I need to supply a pull-up

Thanks Andy, I found the error. The hal source on my Mac wasn’t the same as that on my linuxcnc box. I got the loadf’s and addf’s setup correctly now. However, now I am getting the error “Epp timeout while sending firmware". Would the error message for timeout be the same if it failed to find
