Hi Friends, 

While i was working on my machine the RP4 and touchscreen i had it mounted to took a tumble and unfortunately the screen will not be returning. I took this as an opportunity to upgrade from a RP4 to one of those mini computers. All went well from the install perspective, there were no issues in the live environment or from the latency test. I moved forward with an install on the main disk and just finished going through the pncconf wizard with the same settings i had working with the RP4 and i get an error that looks like at real-time error. (pasted below)
hm2_eth: rtapi_app_main: Resource temporarily unavailable (-11) ./Cutter.hal:9: waitpid failed /usr/bin/rtapi_app hm2_eth ./Cutter.hal:9: /usr/bin/rtapi_app exited without becoming ready ./Cutter.hal:9: insmod for hm2_eth failed, returned -1 6432

I downloaded mesa flash to the new machine and am not able to ping it at 10.10.10.10 and ill post the output of ip -a on the new machine with the mesa (machine) powered on.

That worked thank you!

I am now getting a "joint 2 on limit switch" error when i try to jog the machine on start up. The only other thing that changes is i went from gmocappy to axis (since i no longer have a touch screen).

I went to hal show and tested all three (still waiting on the fourth) limit switches and both estops do what they should.

Should i undo the "-not" ? If that was the case shouldn't it be all the joints?

In hal show, the limit switch pins should show false (red) when not activated and
true (yellow) when activated, is this the case?

Hi Friends, 

Sorry for the delay in getting and update posted. I got the tandem limit switch wired up and all of the pins inverted so now i am getting a red state at idle but when the limit switch or estop is depressed it turns yellow. So all my estop and limit pins seem to be working as expected.

I think this topic is solved. I have a litany of other issues that if i need novel help ill create a new topic. I appreciate your help. Slowly but surely we're going to get a working machine.
