Well if you get a sserial break error, you have a pretty severe noise issue (> 1.4V induced in DB25 cable for longer than 4 usecs)
Is it possible Estop causes a relay/contactor to open which doesn't have arc suppression?

The e-stop does open a contactor or two, and a few small relays. I could not tell you if they have arc suppression. They are in a separate electrical panel. All I know is I didn't see these problems before 2.7 (not that they weren't there) but the new tool planner is worth putting up with it.

Hi Peter,
I have been doing the following: I took linuxcnc back to 2.6.12, but then I couldn't get linuxcnc to even start up. I downloaded the latest 5i25.bit file, and did mesaflash because I thought that the 77f.bit could maybe have caused the errors, but still continued getting the following errors: dmesg output:

Please try and get 2.6 running with the 77f.bit file
The 77f bitfile will work with 2.6 (there are no linuxcnc visible changes)
Please do not change bit files and ALWAYS us the 77f.bit file and 2.6 (until 2.7 is fixed)
if you have electrical noise issues, this is VERY important
Also these errors must be on a second 7I77 so make sure that any header-->
DB25 cable adapter is a short as possible (and ALWAYS us the 77f bitfile if you use the second port)
If you get errors when your trigger an EStop, this is possibly because you have
relay contacts that switch an inductive load that are missing arc suppression components

BTW a likely cause of 2.6 not starting with a 2.7 HAL file is that the
watchdog petting function has been removed/commented out in the hal file since 2.7 does not need it

aha! you're right. I did comment the watchdog out. ![:) :)](/media/kunena/emoticons/smile.png)
about the arc suppression, I have miniature relays that I am switching on, with diodes across the coils, and I have never had a problem like this with the last 32 machines that I have retrofitted, so I doubt that it could be a arc suppression problem. I think these relays draw 0.01A or less. Not sure exactly, but I know they draw very little current, and with the diodes across the coils I would think that everything should be okay.
I did a rest program, where I switched three relays on and off at a very fast rate, and the problem did not occur. Definitely something to do within linuxcnc and the E-stop/Enable.

Its not the little relays I worry about, but any relay or contactor coils
switched by relay contacts, these are where the arc suppression devices are needed
DId you try running 2.6 with the 77f bitfile? (this combination will be more noise resistant than any past setup )

There is a branch that fixes the sserial errors on my BP.
To get a RIP and test the branch open a terminal and run the following commands. You might need to install git with sudo apt-get install git-core.

Hi,
I managed to get my machine on Weezy, and brought it back to 2.6, for the time being, it gives errors, but I can continue to run linuxcnc. Thanks for all you help so far for everyone involved. At least I can continue with the machine now...

I would expect 2.7.4 to be released any day but if anyone else could try the branch it would be great.
