Hi,
before I order mesa cards, I would like to ask whether my setup is ok.

I have 4 stepper-motors, 4 RS-422 Encoder and a smart serial device. So I would like to buy:

1x 5i24-16
1x 5i72s (for 4 Stepper and 4 RS-422 Encoder)
1x 5i44 (RJ45 Smart Serial Interface)

I also looked into the *.vhd files of the hostmot2 driver and found the
PIN_SVSTSS6_4_8_7I52S_72.vhd (I attached the contents of that file in my post).
From the pinout the cards should fit, but I did not find a corresponding bit file. Did I missed it or do I have to create it by hand or is my setup even not possible?

Greetings

Would be the correct bit file for a 5I24-16, 1x7I52S, 1x7I44

Hi,
I have issues with that firmware. I flashed successfully the 5i24_16_svstss6_6_8_7i52sd.bit via newest mesaflash from git:

But when testing my setup in halrun I got following error:
XXX@YYY:~$ halrun

Could you please help me to solve the problem? Unfortunately I am at my wits end.

FYI: I attached the 7i52S to P4 and the 7i44 to P2.

That's a really strange error, considering the pin file does not seem to have any errors
(certainly no duplicated watchdog entry)

The readhmid output also reflects the error (it shows a duplicate watchdog module entry)

I just re-compiled this bit file:

If this fails I will try and debug this further

Hi, thank you for the quick response!
In principle the second bit file (5i24_16_svstss.zip) is working. The duplicated watchdog error is gone and the hm2_pci is loading successfully in halrun.
But from the readhmid ouput I guess that 5i24_16_svstss.zip is for a 5i24-16 setup without 7i52S and 7i44 and with pwmgens instead of stepgens.
Warning: Spoiler!

Third ones a charm (I hope):

As you said: Third ones a charm. The last bit file is working as intended. Thanks a lot!!

hi have you successfully install 7i52s with 5i24 if yes can you attach you config files

The 7i52S is (as far as I am aware) an entirely passive card. So even users of other cards with the 5u24 might be able to help.

Do you have a specific question? (I am using a 5i24 on my lathe, but with a 7i49 rather than 7i52)

Im running the same setup but i have a 5i24-25 card, is the 16 bit file compatible?
