I think it may have been a typo, but even then, there is a far better way to have multi versions of Linuxcnc, that's the beauty of building from source, if you can follow instructions you can do it, and taking advantage of the run in place facility, aka RIP.

Your HDD probably has enough space to dual boot LinuxCNC 2.9.4 and 2.9.4.

Why? What's the point of having two of the same version?

Could it be that I am not using the correct version of LinuxCNC?

No, any version of LinuxCNC from 2.8 on will work with the 7I76E

Like I said you need to check


hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-minlim  
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-maxlim   
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-scalemax 
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinena-invert  

 hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinena

with halshow

In axis, you can run halshow with:

Machine --> Show Hal Configuration --> Watch

And also verify that you have +10V on the 7I76E SPINDLE+ pin
(TB4 pin 3) relative to SPINDLE- (TB4 pin 1)

 

You may try 2.9.4 if you like.

www.linuxcnc.org/iso/linuxcnc_2.9.4-amd64.hybrid.iso

Your HDD probably has enough space to dual boot LinuxCNC 2.9.4 and 2.9.5.

When you tried to update the repository (sudo apt update), how was the PC connected to the internet?

You should be able to debug spindle operation by using halshow
to look at the spindle pins as you set the spindle speed to different values
Important things to watch are:

hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-minlim  
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-maxlim   
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-scalemax 
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinena-invert  

 hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinout
hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.spinena


Also make sure then the electrical connections are correct
(so you have 10V from SPIN+ to SPIN-)

I was able to correct the IP address
it doesn't work, I can set cw-cww-enable but no speed.
I am trying to update and it cannot find the linuxcnc repository , gives an error
I am using 2.9.5

Should I reinstall everything again?
I don't understand what is happening

Yes, the sample file is set for a 10.10.10.10 IP address
if you are using 192.168.1.121, you will get that error
 

Is the networking set up for Mesa?
Is the IP address on the board set same as in the config?

Houston !!! i have a problem!!! 

Thank you very much!!!!!

Here's a pncconf created basic 4 axis configuration with spindle:


 

 

Could someone set up a 4 axis + 1 spindle of 24000 rpm with pncconf?
I assembled 2 computers with 2 7i76e motherboard boards and both are experiencing the same issue.
I can program manually with cw cww enable and it works perfectly, but when I want to incorporate a pwm component, it gives me an error.
If I can obtain the .hal and .ini files, I can modify them and proceed with a machine that I need to get working.
thank you!!!!!!

Can the network configuration affect?

No, the FPGA card need not even be present for pncconf to run

I would try setting the locale to en-US

I can run it from the console without any problem.

Can the network configuration affect?
