Hi there,
First of all, happy new year !
I need some help on this issue, I can't figure what i'm doing wrong.
I've bought some years ago (2-3 ?) a 6i25+7i77 plug and go kit form mesa but never used it.
Now the time as I've build the mecanical side.
Issue is:
This damn CR16 is showing red.
What I've checked so far:
Made my own cable to use P2 internal connector, tested it with multimeter, is ok.
TB1: 5V is ok, computer psu is providing it to TB1. W5 has changed.
TB2: 24Vdc is ok, provided by an other psu. W1 is in default position Vin is th same as VField, checked at 24V.
Differential encoders is working.
Short story:
Was running Lcnc 2.7 on wheezy, discovering it has ended LTS, decided to upgrade to buster, so I've upgraded to Lcnc 2.9.0pre and had to build it (was my first time maybe I've done something wrong)
Running 7i77x2r.bit (not sur if needed for using P2 on 6i25 ?)
Did try 7i77x2.bit with no change.
Interesting facts (or maybe useless):
With no 7i77 connected to the 6i25, PnCconf is still showing TB7 TB8 with "internal data form 5i25", and in fact everything.
Starting PncConf is throwing an error with hostmot2 firmware not present on hard disk.
CR1-3-6-7 are yellow CR15 off, and of course CR16 red.
Starting Lcnc doesn't change CR15-16.
If i'm starting Lcnc with wrong bitfile/conf file, it show error as expected as it can't find related pins.
I can't find my db25 cable to see if it will change something.
Could it be my build of linuxcnc ?
Any help will be appreciated as I'm struggling with this one.
