Have the same question since a while, because of HALshow while experimenting with some settings was not possible simultaneously.
Thank you for the question Martin, and Lcvette, for the answer!

Hello, I have a T3D servo driver and a Mesa 7i97T board, how can I connect them? I don't know how to install the Mesa 7i97T board, and I would like to know how to connect it. These are the only pins available on the cable:
0V
P+
son
alm
D-
D12
D04
P-
24V
D+
but more appear in the manual.

Hello together,
another question and problem with my LCNC config.
After solving installation, homing, network, latency problems with your help, I could make the next step and check my spindle output function.
I'm using a chinese 2,2kW standard spindle with a Hitachi WJ200 VFD, parameters set with Hitachi proDrive, the FWD/Stop control is working correctly, but I cannot measure any volts at the Spindle Output of my 7i76e TB4. The electronic pot gets 10V from an external voltage source, these 10V are measureable at TB4, Pin 3.
Im using Probe Basiv V.5 under Debian 12 and LCNC 2.9.3. on a Lenovo Think Centre M92p Tiny, 8 GB i5 2900 GHz.
I set the output with MDI S6000 and can see, that spindle-out goes to 100 (rps), Spindle-enable goes on, but I can not see any voltage at Pin 3.
Do you have any idea what is going wrong here?

Wiring:
8 Dir + STP (Hitachi WJ200 D2)
7 Dir - GND
6 En + STA  (Hitachi WJ200 D1)
5 En - GND
4 nc
3 SPI + +10V external voltage
2 SPI OUTPUT  -> Analog In O
1 SPI -       -> GND, L


INI:
MAX_OUTPUT = 24000.0
OUTPUT_SCALE = 24000
OUTPUT_MIN_LIMIT =  1000
OUTPUT_MAX_LIMIT = 24000

HAL:

Thank you for any help!

To my very pleasant surprise Peter Wallace at Mesa has requested that that I send in the card for analysis!!

Ive been wading through posts here for a few days now. managed to get a master up and running, and the slaves to appear. As far as I can tell the next step add the drive to linuxcnc is to either find or create an XML file for the drives. I scavanged some Elmo Gold - G-CEL50 drives that I would like to use and figured I'd ask if there was anyone here who already created or found one. I've searched a bit around for next steps but did not have much luck, any help would be appriciated.

Thanks in advance,

I see from other posts that with intel network card I should disable IRQ coalescing. I will try that in the morning and repeat the ping test
