Xilinx Setup to edit config for 7i92T was created by StoneB

Xilinx Setup to edit config for 7i92T

Category: Driver Boards

Hello, I am trying to set up my 7i92T for my existing controller (a Mechapro Slider SFX), and am struggling with the very first step: I have tried the two computers in the house (Windows 11) and both refuse to install the Xilinx Software ("Virtualization needs to be enabled"). I have made sure the BIOS virtualization is on, and have also tried some youtube trick to install Oracle Virtualbox already - but no success so far. 

Is there any further trick I miss?

Alternatively, I thought I could use Raspi I want to run LinuxCNC on, but I have no idea if I can install the 4 .xz packages: do I need to unzip them all four in the same folder? How do I trigger install on Linux?

Or, if anybody has the software already installed for a 7i92T, would you be willing to program it with the below ports?

Thank you!!

These are just my opinions but, you dont need isolation and you would not design to read the raw arc voltage. Most decent plasma's will give you a divided arc voltage output, most common divider ration being 50. So an arc voltage of 100, would read as 100V/50=2V. You probably only need some filtering, input buffer and over voltage protection.

I took a quick look at the AX schematic, seems its only used as a gateway and none of the "special" features are used. This begs the question, why the AX instead of the LAN9252? To me the AX seems hard to get, are there benefits to use the AX as a gateway?

What are your plans for the plasma build? Do you need the MCU to do the step/dir? Or could you just get an ethercat drive and let that handle the motion side? Then you could probably use a much simpler (cheaper and smaller) MCU for IO, Analog input, maybe an encoder for pendant etc.

Advice on Protectli V1210/V1211 for LinuxCNC

Hey thanks, they are pretty cheap for what it is, but the main issue is I am in Mauritius and there's not a lot of good tech that's affordable here. Importing a Tower PC will set me back about 400 USD (excluding the PC) which aint great to say the least.

My main reason with going with Protectli was the Intel® I226-V over a generic Realtek controller.

If I look at getting something like an Nuc with an I3 or I5 would that be a better option?

Flashing fails then too:

xx@xxxxxx:~# pyocd flash /home/bf/Downloads/remora-rt1052-3.1.3.bin –-target mimxrt1050_quadspi
0000497 W Generic 'cortex_m' target type is selected by default; is this intentional? You will be able to debug most devices, but not program flash. To set the target type use the '--target' argument or 'target_override' option. Use 'pyocd list --targets' to see available targets types. [board]
0000674 I Loading /home/bf/Downloads/remora-rt1052-3.1.3.bin [load_cmd]
0000690 C No boot memory is defined for this device [__main__]


 
The pyocd warning is hinting that the command line is not correct and it's defaulting the generic target type that cannot flash memory.

pyOCD/docs/target_support.md at main · pyocd/pyOCD

Is there a typo in the command line arguments?




 


I used the "--target" option, like show in the help output, but i found the variable "target" in "board.py" was allsways "None". So i did the quick & very dirty fix to change default to my board:

# As a last resort, default the target to 'cortex_m'.
if target is None:
target = 'cortex_m'

to

# As a last resort, default the target to 'cortex_m'.
if target is None:
target = 'mimxrt1050_quadspi'

Finaly it flashed the board and i got it connected to linuxcnc :D

Get a HP Z420 or Z430 or Z440, they are proven reliable, but they are huge and heavy.
But the are cheaper as they can be found only used.
Also, personally i avoid anything Nxxxx from Intel, they are way under powered for anything useful, but they will run the machine perfectly fine.

Entirely possible.
There is an STM32F407VGT6 but you can switch it for your favorite MCU if needed.
Now, I am not an electronics engineer even if I do this kind of things. With that said I imagine one would need some electric isolation before the arc voltage reaches the MCU pins. One "just" needs a circuit to read the arch voltage that the MCU can read.

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.
 

It is working now! Thank you for your support.

dynamic speed of spindle related to speed of x,y,xy axis speed via pwm

Category: Advanced Configuration

All joint velocities are available in hal, so if the PWM needs to track any function
of these velocities, it's possible, but you need to know the function.

Do you know the actual desired PWM  value vs joint velocity function?
