Some can be SSI slaves - can you recommend some models?

Other interfaces - how can I read data from this interface to LinuxCNC into start position parameters?
I want use 7i92

Thanks!

I dont recall which specific drives do this, just that I have encountered them over the years
helping people doing retrofits.

Sorry for the late answer, can you mak 5i25_7i77_7i74 + ssi as well.

Rght now I'm working on the system with 5i25 as main Anything IO board.

Hi,

Finally we have tested the firmwares.

On 7i92 it works good.
But on the 5i25 0-3 channels a lot have of noise. Especially when we power up the servo. See attached halscope screenshot - sharp spikes on the signal. Channels 4-7 work good. May be there's a bug in the firmware?


By the way we've found that 8xRJ45 connector's shield is not grounded, so until we connected it to the ground we had a lot of noize on the ssi channels. I've not found anything about that in the manuals.

Another thing - using pair of 7i92+7i77 we have some notches on the 4th analog out (other channels work fine). Notches appears mostly near 0 output value from one to ten seconds per notch. We have tried to change 3 different 7i77, changed the cables with no effect, but if we connect the same 7i77 board to 5i25 everything works smooth.

Those look like they could be single-bit errors. Is there a checksum in the data?
