mill test of the slot ops.

It looks like it's something with the pin file maybe when I try and choose Mesa Card 1. I did the mesaflash --readhmid and copied that to the PnCconf Input, removed the Expansion from the line: IO Connections for Expansion Serial 0..1 -> 7I94_0 and now I get a VauleError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'SSERIAL'

Is there something I'm missing? I did a compare of the successful 7I96S pin file and didn't spot any discrepancies.

Attached is a screenshot of the error and a text file of the 7I94T --readhmid 

 

I'm sure it will need more tweaks - lets me know.

There is currently no way to set GcodeEditor 's edit mode in Qtdesigner.
You must call the GcodeEditor 's python function editMode() or readOnlyMode()

You are making a custom screen?

It looks like bad instructions on our part...

Try renaming qtplasmac_sk.qm in linuxcnc-dev/share/qtvcp/screens/qtplasmac_4x3/languages/ to qtplasmac_4x3_sk.qm

If that works for you then we will edit the documentation.

Whelp, I just enabled -O3 and LTO in the Gentoo LinuxCNC installer/image, and bumped the CPU requirement from x86-64-v2 to x86-64-v3 (now requires AVX, AVX2, BMI1, BMI2, F16C, FMA, ABM, MOVBE and XSAVE.)

RHEL 10 requires x86-64-v3 now so this updated requirement is not radical, and x86-64-v3 goes back to 2013 for Intel (starting with Haswell) and 2015 for AMD. Let's see who's faster NOW! Muahahah!

Will do that once back from Thanksgiving holidays.

Hi, fellow Aussie here. I decided to bite the bullet and order a 7i96s in mid November and am now trying to work out why the tracking updates have stopped since it supposedly made its way to Sydney airport.

Is there anyone else here who has had any grief getting boards shipped very expensively to Australia?

I've found out that the 8 spindle machine is to be auctioned off on Dec. 18th 2024. As well as all other machinery. There are 3 other routers I've converted to running Linuxcnc, as well as as a number of other larger routers (mostly Fanuc controls.)

You're an ace dude !!!

Sounds easy. I don't know how to do any of that!


I don't think Pathpilot cares that it's a TH is the lights on the 7i92 indicate that it's trying to connect to the Tormach board when Pathpilot starts up - so it may just be steps 1 and 2.

I have a guy I know working on it. the rented solutions kinda suck. Most of the packages are aimed at very large scale operations. Mostly this will be used for protyping and R&D work on a small scale. 

Sorry, I didn't understand the translation well, I don't speak English, in this case the remora doesn't support high pulse frequencies due to the limited hardware, does the ec 500 and ec300 have an input for high pulse frequency encoders? Or does it only allow you to make an extension module for the encoder? If so, what would this expansion module be like? Is there anything ready? and how would you add it? Sorry for the number of questions, I'm very interested in this project

There's probably a way to do this but is pretty hacky:

1. Write Tormach 1100 compatible firmware to the 7I92T
(should not be a big deal)
2. Disable the part of Tormachs startup script that updates the firmware

3. Change the 7I92t name to  7I92
(there's a utility to change Mesa Ethernet card names)

Now PathPilot will think you have a 7I92
