Ok here is the XML file pncconf needs.
It must be put in the /lib/firmware/hm2/5i20 folder
You must be sudo to do that. (One way to do that is open a terminal and enter sudo nautilus )

I only checked on a sim machine that the components come up in pncconf as the PIN file describes.
Any questions let me know.

i copied the xml file in the /lib/firmware/hm2/5i20 folder. after that is started the pncconf and i was able to select the SVST6_6_7i52S.
i entered the parameters of my machine and the i started the configuration. i get an error message:

It isn't finding the bitfile? Is it there (/lib/firmware/hm2/5i20), and is the name correct (case sensitive)

Yep, looks like a case issue,the file I made was SVST6_6_7I52S.BIT not SVST6_6_7i52S.BIT

yes, this was the problem, after editing the name in the hal file, axis starts without an error message!

Note that you will have to set GPIO0 and GPIO23 low to get differential outputs 3 and 0 working (see 7I52Sman.pdf)
