Hi, I was curious if there is a way to reconnect to mesa card without restarting linuxCNC. Sometimes i turn my cnc machine off without quitting linuxCNC. It throws a hm2read error as it has lost the connection. But i cannot establish connection without restarting linuxcnc.
I've tried entering initialization line on my main hal file going "hm2_eth board_ip= ......."
also mesaflash with --reload argument

You can try "unload hostmot2" and then reloading it. But I think you would then then need to reload the specific card driver and re-make all the HAL connections.

Can you keep the Ethernet card powered? This will still likely require
re-homing if the drives have been powered down,
It is possible to re-connect to the card after a read error but I don't think
you can get things setup properly without basically relaunching LinuxCNC
so the hal file drivers are reloaded and all initial parameters are re-setup.
