Hi all

i could not find 7i95 board with 5ABoB (not the T or S) board firmware on the mesa website. Please share if possible with stepgens for the 5ABoB with inputs.

Did you use mesaflash to check what is already in it?

Hi

Thanks for your response. It has regular pins for the 7i95 hardware with the parallel ports having I/O pins.Please help with the bitfiles with stepgens ans inputs as they are not available on the mesa website.

What I/O do you actually need?
 
The 7I95 is fairly limited so a full 5ABOB configuration will not fit.

5ABOB inputs will be available with the standard firmware
as are GPIO outputs. It may be possible to make a configuration
that fits and does what you need by eliminating unused features.

The inputs already work.

That number of stepgens will not fit a standard 7I95 configuration

Do you use all the encoder channels?

Do you use the sserial channels?

(The added stepgens might fit by eliminating unused features)

Do you use the sserial channels?

When you say you want the stepgens on the BOB
do you mean you need 9 stepgens total or just
the three on the BOB?

If you need 9 stepgens total, some other feature like
encoders or sserial ports must go.

That is correct. 9 stepgens (6 for the main hardware + 3 for the BoB).

Please help as my project is hanging for few days now.
7i95 (not T or S )does not have any 5ABoB bitfiles on the mesa website.
