So I don't see any documentation for PktUART and it would require a custom
bit file. So that is something maybe I could add later in a custom bit file?
In the meantime I just need something that actually works that has 3 pwm
outputs and 3 encoder inputs. So can you suggest a bit file that I

Peter,
Thanks for verifying this
Peter,
Thanks for verifying this in your environment.
When you say communications issue do you mean something other than
electrical noise?
I doubt that there is a noise issue with my communications as right now I
am in a pretty
good environment. There are no drives or other noisy devices

OK that makes sense but where are these 7i65 configurations?
That is why I was

GTAG 7 is SPI:

Do you need SPI?

I am running out of ideas about why linuxcnc is unhappy with my 7i80
first I loaded the bit file 7i80hd_25_svsp8_6.bit and that loaded without
issue using mesaflash
next I try to make a simple hal file to instantiate the 7i80 but I get an
error?
