Mesa hm2/hm2_7i96s.0: error finishing read

The errors are happening so fast I cant get halscope open and set up before the error happens.

Tried setting error limit to 1000 and it's essentially immediate.

I found that I can get halscope to auto-start with 'loadusr' in hal file, but not sure how to call up a particular halscope file or get the pins set to capture everything immediately.
 

Managed to catch it.  This with error-level set to 1000.
Does not appear to be intermittent errors piling up, but a failure to commuicate from the start?
 
 

EDIT
Set error-level to 10000 and exactly the same thing happened, just took longer to trigger.

This feels like some sort of setting I've got wrong and not some intermittent communications error.

Yes, that looks like it simple times out every packet
(so about 1/2 second to get the 500 time out errors needed to trip the read error)

Maybe is is worth looking into the configuration a bit,

Can you try a minimal configuration? (nothing but axis stepgens for example)

Slight change with minimal config - errors stop briefly, then accumulate again.

Entire HAL file is in upper left of screenshot.
 

Looks like the interface dropped the link entirely...

Does the Yellow LED on the 7I96S RJ45 blink out ever?

Still thinking it's a setting? Or hardware?

The same behavior repeats every time.
