Retrofit 7 ton HOMAG with Rexroth motors and drives - mesa 7i97t

The 6 axis ranges from 9-11mv

The 6'th axis or all 6 axis?

Axis0 11mv
Axis1 9mv
Axis2 10mv
Axis3 9mv
Axis4 10mv
Axis5 9mv

OK that looks good.

The next test is to set all PID pins to 0 (P,I,D,FF0,FF1,FF2) in the ini file
and start LinuxCNC, then enable motion, at this point, PWM should be enabled on all axis
but the PWM value should be 0 on all axis. Again measure all the Analog outputs.

Also insure the all PWM enables are true, and all PWM values are 0

 (test done with nothing connected to the 7I97T except 5V power and Ethernet)
 

“Also insure the all PWM enables are true, and all PWM values are 0”
Should I define this in HAL?

No, if you set all PID values to 0 in the .ini file, run linuxcnc
and set LinuxCNC into the machine-on state, all PWM values will be 0
and the PWM enables should all be true (at least for the joints enabled in the hal file)
