Mesa 7i96+7i85+7i84 was created by ikkuh
Hi,

Hopefuly PCM can help me with this.

I have a 7i96 card, flashed with standard firmware. I also have a 7i85 connected to p3. This all works great.
Now I have bought a 7i84 and wonder if I have to adjust anything on the 7i96 to get it working? Or will it work straight out of the box?

Don't have the card yet, should arrive this afternoon.

7i84 is an I/O port with 32 in and 16 out, right ?
It connects to FPGA via smart serial, so if you have a free sserial on the 7i96 ( i do not know if 7i96 has it, still waiting for mine), use a RJ45 connector or an ethernet cable cut in half.
It does not require any programming flashing of cards.

Did you power it with field power?
Also check the manual for cabling, it has a simple solution for the ethernet cable.
Start LinuxCNC, got to machine menu and open "show hal configuration", there on the left side navigate to find the 7i84.

CAN SOMEONE FIX THIS BLOODY AWFUL EDITOR????????????????????????????



Yes, everything is connected.

I give up, this editor is more annoying then fixing the problem itself. Takes even more time.

To get the 7I84 working you should have the jumpers in the default position
(W1 and W2 in the left position), field power applied to both A and B sides,
and the correct RJ45 cable.

When LinuxCNC is not running but everything is powered up, you should have
two yellow and one red LED illuminated. When LinuxCNC is running, the red
LED should extinguish and you should get a blinking green LED instead.

Possibly a cable error of some kind
