Hey JT,

thanks mate! I finally got it "running". 

I will try some things tomorrow. What do I have to modify in the HAL to accept the 7i78? Or is it working already?

Thanks!!

BR

strange thing is that I seem to able to build 'libdogleg' git repo you linked above which also includes 'chmod.h'. Had to install 'mrbuild' though.

 

I have those installed but still complains about missing 'cholmod.h': 
 

Hi Arciera,
I installed both off them in a hurry. I think this one :sudo apt-get install libdogleg2

apt-cache search libdogleg -> gives both :  libdogleg-dev  & libdogleg-dev

Ok,

I am a little further.
There is added a test : single_clothoid_fit();

This is a test, given a clothoid start point, end point.
It is a single clothoid, so no clothoid compound.

is it possible to view the circuit diagram somewhere ?

EDIT: and how many Logic-Cells you need for a 3Axis Mill ?

Is the work on ncam still ongoing? I loved using it and have not upgraded my lincnc in years because I don't want to loose it.

I recently played with Pathpilot again but it is a bear to work with and adapt to a non tormach machine. My only real reason for exploring Pathpilot is its excellent conversational. Unfortunately the Pathpilot section for this forum is all but dead, virtually no activity in years so a lot is greatly outdated.

I have not seen a Lcnc screenset with decent (any) conversational to date unless I am missing something.

I would sure love to see Ncam brought back to life. Any updates would be greatly appreciated.

I get this error when building your repo:
 

@Arciera,

I think this : sudo apt-get install libdogleg-dev

In the mean time, i have seen the params[index], had a flaw. I repaired that. Git is updated.
Now still wrong results. I think the Jacobian setup is incorrect also.

Hmmm, you meen i can change the diameter in the tool table from 4mm to 1mm.
If i also reduce the diameter in the program by 3mm, it is possible to use G41.

Yes, this is a possibility, but not a nice one, where mistakes can easily happen.

I understand that many people want to keep the current function of G41, but what's wrong with a 2nd function that works like all other controllers and doesn't require any tricks?

The smart serial card does not need firmware. The 7i97t_7i78d.bin firmware is what you want and you can flash it with the Mesa Configuration Tool .

How would I add the dogleg dependencies to your cloned repo?

Then we have a situation where some people believe what is contrary to science and create rules that do not allow you to question the belief.

Thanks for that.
I believe that what Rodw wrote is the reason why i could not anymore open the shared folder, but its funny that in short time this stopped working, as well as the internet browser and also OneDrive setup on wheezy.

The solution is to edit the SMB policy on your windows box and it works perfectly.

I am not expecting that you write me a tutrorial how to get it work, but if you have a simple tutorial, please send me a link. If the new radeon vga will not solve the latency problem, but i will know that i can setup samba on wheezy, then i will do it. If not, i buy the mesa 7i92TF or 7i76e.

7i76EU has been added to Mesa CT just now. I've not tested the configuration yet.

Hey guys,

it's been a while since my last post.

I am currently working on retrofitting a DMG 50 with analog +-10V Simodrives.
The Mesa's for this project are already laying on my desktop.

I am coming from 7i92 + 7i77, so many tutorials for these builds. Now with the 7i97T i am kinda lost when it comes to flashing.

I need a bin file for the combination :

7i97T 
7i84 - over TB4 (ethernet)
7i78 - over P2 

Can anyone bring some light into this? Or already used this combination?

The 7i78 is "only" for backup if more encoders are needed- so maybe I can start the config without it.

Thanks in advance for any help guys )
