Hi,

I am moving my thread to this topic on advice from the moderators because my issues are MesaCT related. 
Previous topic:  Configuration problems 7i95t Mesa card with servo drives.
First, thanks in advance for all the help from this helpful community!

My situation is as follows: I have a Mesa 7i95T board (firmware: 7i95t_1pwmd.bin) to run  T6 400w servo motors  on my diy cnc router for cutting wood and aluminum. 
I am running linuxCNC 2.9.1 amd 64 on Debian from this official website on a Lenovo thinkCenter small PC. And i am using MesaCT 2.1.2 to make the configuration but the configuration are only partially generated. I am missing the stepgen and all the axis/joints configurations. I have disabled secure mode in BIOS. I have reinstalled Linux and MesaCT two times. And logically i get folowing errors in linuxcnc trying to run these config files.

I am kind of lost for options to try which makes my whole build kind of in stuck. So all the help i can get will be much appreciated. 

Thanks and kind regards,

Mattias

I'll look into this, the fastest way is to create a bug report.

All I need to recreate your configuration is the ini file.

The ini file is from 2.1.1...

This should be fixed now, download 2.1.2 and reinstall.

Hi,
Great tool but I'm having a problem. I'm running Linuxcnc 2.9.2 on a RPi5 with MESA 7i76E and 7i85S boards. In the Setting/Jog Slider Settings the three Angular Velocity setting are greyed out so I can not enter values. The result of Build Config is a message in the Info tab :Settings Tab:Default Linear Jog Velocity must be greater than zeroMaximum Linear Jog Velocity must be greater than zero

Is there something I've missed in the settings somewhere?
Regards,

If you don't have any rotary axes the angular velocity settings are not used.

For linear axes you must set the default linear jog velocity.

Just looked at the images and it shows default angular jog velocity must be set. What axes do you have configured?
