I have the file

I put a copy here

tiered@mill-pc:/lib/firmware/hm2/7i76$ ls
7I76R14.BIN

is this the right location ?

also thanks for the fast response

ok got it needed to move a copy to

lib/firmware/hm2/sserial/7I76R14.BIN

thanks

machine is not moving yet, but at least linuxcnc start without errors now

Thank You
