Hi all.
I'm trying creat a pwm gen on pncconf, but i found a problem, pncconf creat a output pwm in the pin 7. The pin 7 is a input on 7i37com. I changed that pin in hal file to pin 16, but isn't works. Emc doesn't run.
Show that fault.
Parameter or pin hm2_7143.0.gpio.0016.invert_output not found

Follow the hal file an debug file.

A couple of things...
1. Hardware PWM outputs are on fixed pins. so if you want a PWM output on GPIO16 you must have a bitfile
that already has a PWM output there.
2. Hardware PWM is not very useful on 7I37 outputs because they are fairly slow, in any case you would
want a slow PWM rate if you expect decent linearity, probably 1 KHz or below
3. If a very slow PWM rate is OK (say 10-20 Hz) you can use the software PWM generator and wire it in HAL to GPIO 16
What is the PWM for?

To control a vfd spindle motor. I will use a pwm to 0-10v converter.

Mesa make a device for this: store.mesanet.com/index.php?route=produc...spinx&product_id=205
But a capacitor and resistor can work too. (depending on the nature of the IO pin, it needs a degree of push-pull capability).
I use an ACPL chip directly connected to a 7i43 output pin to get the required current-source / current-sink behaviour.

You would need a bigger cap than shown for a 1kHz PWM.
Which VFD are you using? Some of them can be directly controlled by the serial port / modbus.

I _think_ that if you set the number of PWMgens to 3 in pncconf then one of them will end up on an output pin of the 7i37.
This is a bit wasteful of 7i37 pins, as some of the 7i37 Inputs get claimed by PWM generators that are not being used.
It _might_ be better to use a step generator and frequency to voltage conversion to control the VFD.
Making a special 7i43-200 firmware that has a PWM output on the 7i37 pin of your choice is something that even I can do, but not until sunday. In the meantime (and if you are not using the 7i37 inputs on the pins that get "claimed" by PWMs 0 and 1) then try 3 PWMs to get things working.

That appears to have the option of RS232 control with a separate connection kit, but that is probably hard to get hold of.
I was wondering if the drive had an option to take pulse (stepgen) frequency as input, but it appears not.
One very easy way to convert a step/dir pulse to PWm to control an inverter would be an Arduino.
An interrupt that triggers on the rising edge of a digital input could simply measure how many clock ticks have happened since the last pulse, and set a PWM output accordingly.
You can get an Arduino Nano for <$10 from eBay. They make it barely worth building a breadboard circuit any more.
However, it should be possible to use the Mesa card PWM, it just needs a bit of firmware manipulation.
What daughter card is on the other port? Perhaps it would make sense (if a custom firmware is being built) to move the PWMgen pins to that port.

Another port i use a custom board, I built my own.
