7i96 bit files was created by persei8
The 7i96.zip file contains 20 different .bit files. Is there something that explains what each one is for? I want one with a packet UART so I can implement the RS485 transceiver IF. There's one called 7i96_pktd.bit which might be it. My fear is that I'll brick the card if I program it wrong. If I do choose the wrong bitfile, how do I restore it with the original one? Thanks.

The .bit files have an associated .pin file which is a text file
giving the configuration modules and pinout.

7i96d.bit is the standard bitfile

7i96_pktd.bit is the 7I96 configuration with a packet UART
Though I think the pinout file was made before Mesaflash
knew what a PKTUART was.

The current mesaflash does print out 7i96_pktd pinout correctly:

Oops ,found a bug in the distribution bitfile (LinuxCNC will complain about it)

Here is a fixed 7i96_pktd bitfile
