I've just received my 7i96 and 7i85 this is a god send. Thanks,
I have a problem though. I'm trying to use it with a RPI4 and it keeps freezing. It primarily seems to be the info and pc tabs that is causing it, but it may not be exclusive. The pi itself keeps responding, just your config tool that freezes.
Whilst I'm here, if i select the 7i96 = 7i85 on the machine tab, i still can't select more than 1 encoder, it this correct? I bought the 7i85 as i want to hook up my 3 linear scales to get actual position feedback as I'm running steppers not servos.
I only have 3 axis on my mill, do i just leave the 4th and 5th axis settings blank as there isn't an option for 3 axis?

At this point you can only flash the 7i96 7i85 firmware. However once you have flashed that and have them connected up and running you can use the save pins to get a full list of all the pins.
I noticed a couple of times the info page would freeze but there was no error so not sure what that is. Seems to me IIRC I would leave the tool and do something else then come back. I'll have to see if I can figure it out.
Only configure the axes you have.

Thanks John,
It mainly seems to freeze when I push the cpu, nic or test buttons.
So I select 7i96+7i85 and then flash. do I need the 7i85 connected when I flash, or just the 7i96 on its own?

I think I fixed the freezing tab issue so download a fresh copy of the deb and reinstall the tool.
You just need the 7i96 connected to flash but to get the pins for both cards you need the 7i85 connected as well.

Actually the 7I85 card is passive so will not show any new pins
(unless you have sserial remote devices connected)

I'll post a more comprehensive reply shortly (this is from my phone), but I can confirm the tool no longer freezes on the info tab when pressing the CPU or NIC buttons. Thank you John.
Unfortunately it still seems to have some issues. If I press the 'get pins', button it freezes the tool. Waiting a while doesnt seem to help.
If I try to save an incomplete config, from the info tab, it gives me the error message for missing parameters but then freezes. I didnt get this issue from the axis tab earlier in the week.
I can connect to the card and have read the firmware from my 7i96 and have successfully flashed the 7i96+7i85s firmware to it (it said it was successful at any rate).
In the firmware printout after flashing I expected to see more encoder inputs on P1 from the 7i85, but I think I can only see 2?
I am having issues reading pins states from the card (as in i can't, and I don't have the watchdog illuminated as i think I should when linuxcnc is running) but as I haven't successfully created a config with this tool I'll post that in a new thread.
Thanks again, Mark.

I can now read inputs. I hadn't connected the input common!
Am I right thinking;
I cant setup the encoder input for an MPG with this tool?
I cant invert the inputs, e.g. for normally closed eStop and limit switches.
I'd have to edit the hal directly?

I just uploaded a fresh deb and I'm not seeing any more freeze ups here. i take that back... seems to be a bug with QT5 and the grid layout
Edit: it seems I introduced a bug using subprocess.getstatusoutput fix is on the way.

I still can't get either the PWM for spindle control, or the encoder to work. Any ideas, the entire HAL and INI files are below ?
This is from the HAL.
# Spindle
setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.output-type [SPINDLE]OUTPUT_TYPE
setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.scale [SPINDLE]MAX_RPM
setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.pwmgen.pwm_frequency [SPINDLE]PWM_FREQUENCY
net spindle-on spindle.0.on => hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.enable
net spindle-speed spindle.0.speed-out => hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.pwmgen.00.value
I've hooked up pins 2 & 3 on TB2 to my VFD, which is a cheap chinese AT1, but I've also tried reading the voltage with a multimeter. I just get +5v out and it doesn't change, regardless of spindle on/off or changing speed. Using WATCH in the HAL configuration on the relevant PINs shows the changing values.
I have a similar problem with the encoder (cheap chinese 100ppr that is used on the chinese MPGs). I have hooked it up to pins 7-12 on TB2. I have confirmed with the frequency function on the multimeter that the pulses are making it to the TB2 header, but nothing can be seen using WATCH in the HAL configuration. I don't think this problem is specific to your config tool as I have also tried with PNCconf tool and get the same (i.e. nothing). Any thoughts from anyone would be appreciated. I've had the cards for 10 days now and whilst I'm slowly getting there I've still struggling with these bits.
