7i92-7i77-7i76 only getting 3 encoders was created by scubawarm
I had a running HAL and INI until I started to add the X2 to the mix.

Now I get this error...

Debug file information:
Note: Using POSIX realtime
./esab_mesa.hal:244: Pin 'joint.3.motor-pos-cmd' does not exist
26409

As you can see from the debug it appears I'm only getting three encoders which would explain the error.
I did verify I have the 7i92_7i77_7i76D firmware installed and this is what starts my HAL

loadrt hm2_eth board_ip="10.100.100.121" config="firmware=hm2/7i92/7i77_7I76D.BIT num_encoders=6 num_pwmgens=0 num_stepgens=5 sserial_port_0=030000"
setp hm2_7i92.0.watchdog.timeout_ns 5000000
loadrt pid names=pid.x,pid.x2,pid.y,pid.z,pid.s

Pulling my hair out any way the firmware is in error?

This is not an encoder issue but a kinematics issue:

COORDINATES=XYZ
KINEMATICS=trivkins coordinates=XYZ

Yes... This simple change got it running again...

#loadrt [KINS]KINEMATICS (commented out replaced with:)
loadrt trivkins

NOTE: Still confused a little as to why it wouldn't be XXYZ for the joints, but as long it works.

XXYZ seems right for a dual joint on X axis gantry. Did you try XXYZ?
The error listed XYZ
