BTW it works with my custom hardware running a modified version of 7c81 bitfile that communicates via EPP.

Check the Lenovo motherboard for a lot header. If there is one but the Lenovo header cable, that will enable the parallel port in the bios. Without going into too many details the cable shorts a pin on the MB enabling the parallel port.
Worked on the Lenovo tower I picked up by the side of the road.

Thank you for noticing my bonehead move. I commented it out when I was trying the pwm gen copied from pncconf with an 7i92/7i77. (I tried re-naming stuff to 7i97 unsuccessfully.)

Sadly I am still doing something wrong with the pwmgen. I no longer have AOUT4 stuck at 10v, but it is now stuck at 0v.

I have un-commented what you noted in my hal file. Changing [SPINDLE_0]SCALE to SPINDLE_0]OUTPUT_SCALE and adding OUTPUT_SCALE = 10000.0 to my ini file under spindle_0.

The pwmgen that you found was copied from my X axis and renamed for the spindle. It came from Mesa CT.

I am re-reading the pwmgen component in the docs, but I am having trouble understanding what I need to do.

Amazing, thank you Grotius!

Assuming this can be integrated in LCNC (for non-coders), the next step would be figuring out how to re-name axes or add more axis letters and define the axis type (linear or rotary).  Such as X1/X2, Y1/Y2, Z1/Z2, C1/C2, etc.

I've not programmed a Swiss lathe, but the twin-turret lathe I've fiddled with uses n1/n2 for the four duplicated axes (XYZC).

Hey everyone.

im trying to mesaflash the 7i96s_dpl for multiple encoder use. but I get consecutive errors of not finding the card. the card is connected at 10.10.10.10 and the lcnc works perfectly , 0.100 ms of ping, but i can’t identify it with mesaflash which is up to date.

any suggestions?thanks in advance. 

Hello,

I was wondering, would it be of any interest to provide Gentoo ARM64 images for a few boards with PREEMPT_RT?

I don't think I have any besides a Pi 4 stashed away somewhere, but there's quite a lot of topics and messages about people getting LinuxCNC on Raspberry Pis and whatnot. What if there was a be-all and end-all solution that had Gentoo fully ready to go for LinuxCNC? Would anyone care or want this? What device(s) has/have the most interest/popularity among LinuxCNC users?

Cheers!

That's more that 1 ms so a reason for timeouts

You might try a 2 ms servo thread
(2000000 ns in the ini file)SERVO_PERIOD = 2000000

Okay - we found the problem and after some tests believe it is fixed. a stray full-stop ina file name pattern.

Thanks Joco!

Thanks

does anyone know what the r210 and s210 cables coming from the spindle motor is and what the et pin on the drive is

I saw "Supper imposed" function on modern sinumerik cnc this summer. I supposed, "yes it woould be nice to see same on linuxcnc. But maybe it will be never realized". But you make it so easy!!! I very impressed about that!

No video yet, will update when i get to it.

Hello. I installed ethercat following all the instructions. I can see my servo motors. But I can't do anything else. I cannot create the lcec.conf file. Please can you help? (I can't find a clear source because I use Google translate)
