Struggling to get all encoders to show up on 7i77 via 7i94T

Category: Driver Boards

You change to the EEPROM IP address (default is 10.10.10.10 )
by moving the IP address setting jumper (and power cycling)

What you did was re-write the EEPROM IP address to 10.10.10.10 (it was already that)

Struggling to get all encoders to show up on 7i77 via 7i94T

Category: Driver Boards

Ahhh, there they are.

I was doing grep 7i77 instead of grep enc.

Now I notice that the encoders are actually directly under the 7i94T, instead of the 7i77.
This makes me feel like a total newb again. (Well, I am in LinuxCNC, but not in programming)

Running the card on 192.168.1.121 works fine for me because I changed the NetworkManager config.

I tried to get the card on 10.10.10.10 with mesaflash —device 7i94t —addr 192.168.1.121 —set ip=10.10.10.10, but that doesn’t work for some reason.

The chrt command you gave me showed no packet loss.
~/linuxcnc/configs/maho_mh400e$  sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -c 60000 -q 192.168.1.121
PING 192.168.1.121 (192.168.1.121) 56(84) bytes of data.

—- 192.168.1.121 ping statistics —-
60000 packets transmitted, 60000 received, 0% packet loss, time 60022ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.137/0.258/0.477/0.030 ms

Mesa 7i95T config for workbench tests - to drive H-Bridges + PMDC servos

Category: Configuration Tools

What makes me curious is mesaflash --device 7i95t --addr 10.10.10.10 --readhmid output, because i can't see TB5 inputs present in the list. Why is that?


 
The input pins are  scanned by the inmux module so multiple inputs are sensed by a few FPGA
pins so not listed.

The output pins are not there because the name is wrong in mesaflash (the SSR TB3 pins should
be TB5 pins) Fixed (in mesaflash 3.5.13)

Why did you bother to crop out the background?

Why cut out information unnecessarily?

Does the bandit controller work (for jogging axes at least)?

Perhaps you can sorta fix the old drivers at least.

Maybe even adapt the bandit for PC control.

unknown mentioned "router" instead of "mill" would be more fitting for the type of machine I aim to build. Thx,

Mesa 7i95T config for workbench tests - to drive H-Bridges + PMDC servos

Category: Configuration Tools

The error is this line:

loadrt hm2_[MESA](BOARD) config=" num_encoders=3 num_pwmgens=3 num_stepgens=0"

Remove it and add the config stanzas to:

loadrt [HM2](DRIVER) board_ip=[HM2](ADDRESS) config="sserial_port_0=00000000 num_encoders=3 num_pwmgens=3"

The 7I95T uses the 7i95 name in hal files so 7i95 hal files will work with 7I95Ts without change.

Problem with Limit switches

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Duplicate topic deleted.

See the 7i96S manual for inputs, the inputs are isolated from the rest of the board. 7i96S inputs can be used as "switched to ground" or "switched to VCC" so wire them accordingly.
And disconnect the switches from +-5V, normally home/limit switches are powered from VField and usually from 24V as it is better to protect from interference's, but they will also work with 5V.

hm2_eth: discovered 7I95T
while
hm2_7i95: dlopen: /usr/lib/linuxcnc/modules/hm2_7i95.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Not sure if the entries in the hal file should also be 7i95T, but it seems so, use the "search and replace" feature in the text editor with CTRL+h and replace every 7i95 with 7i95T, save and run again.

Hello! I try P1. The movement becomes smoother, but still srange. And also srange deaccelerations in traditional tp at moment when movement is smooth and feedrate doesn't change. same programs an non linuxcnc machines works fine. I have such problem on much 3 many years ago. The reason was CPU usage.

Pictures of complete boards, and do motors have any labels?
If not, open one of the connectors and take pictures of the wires inside.
