MESA 5i25+7i76+7i73 Smart Serial Analog Input pins

Hi Folks,
I  have recently installed a MESA 7i73 in my system hanging off the 7i76 and would like to know how to get the analog input pins to show up in the HAL pin list. I have built a pendant and would like to use some pots for overrides. Everything is working except the analog in. I assume I need to set the software mode for the smart serial device to either mode 1 or mode 2... I know there's a config string passed in the HAL command to load the driver sserial_port_0=00000000  , If I set this string to sserial_port_0=20000000  I still don't see the analog pins showing  in the HAL configuration . Can can some help with configuration please?  I have a 10K pot wired with wiper to IN0 on the 7I73 , between 0v and 3.3v

Regards,
Peter.

 

You would need sserial_port_0=0200

The leftmost digit sets the mode for  for SSerial port 0 (the 7I76 field I/O)
 

Thanks PCW . I'll give it a shot.

PCW, sserial_port_0=0200 didn't work..It fails to find the display so I tried 0100 and that worked. The four analog pins showed up. I wonder why mode 2 doesn't work, this is the fast display mode...but I'm happy it is working in the"slow" display mode.

Peter.

Yeah, I think fast display mode has never been
supported by LinuxCNC's driver, though your reported
error is fixable by changing the hal file display pin name

Thanks for the info. I'm content with the way it's working now. I will attempt to connect up the feed override in HAL....

Peter.
