You can check your converter by looping the RS-422 TX to RX

and then togging the FPGA TX pin and seeing if the FPGA RX pin follows

SSERIAL will not start a 8I20 unless the 8I20 has its drive enable powered and

Hello, gentlemen!
I am trying to test the performance of 8i20 drive with my servo motors.
I have 7i43 card, latest buildbot version 2.5.0-pre-2-916 and a
firmware file, kindly provided by Andy Pugh.
In INI file I have:
CONFIG=firmware=hm2/7i43-4/SVSS4_8_48.BIT num_encoders=1
num_sserial=1
Check with mr Wallace, I believe the smart serial firmware in git needs a
couple patches. He got me setup last week.
