Yes, add your end stops etc to the hal file e.g.:

net X-home remora.input.00 => joint.0.home-sw-in
net Y-home remora.input.01 => joint.1.home-sw-in
net Y-home remora.input.02 => joint.2.home-sw-in

This links the remora input hal pins to other hal pins. It's the basis of any LinuxCNC configuration. You can build quite complex logic by linking hal pins from different components.

Hi...sorry for delay...much distracted here...I am going to follow up on all points..

I have it pretty close now...after I finish a couple things I want to go back and check because it seemed that when I used calibration...changed scale value..then tested by jog and measure...ok..save...then run program...consistently got a substantial difference than the jog test which was at the lame total distance..did same process again without testing by jog and much better..I know sounds voodoish but I will try to replicate later this week..

Thanks so much for your help!!

Update / Wednesday 5:52PM: 
finally found the root cause for this behavior.
Its line 25 in my pendant.hal

# --- ESTOP-EXT ---
net pendant-estop     <=  hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-29

when I comment it out, everything is fine. 

Now I just have to understand whats going on with this signal.

OK, I am one step closer.. I created a "virgin" configuration.. that worked fine and didnt show this error. Than I started copying my old config file by file into the new folder to narrow down when this error would be introduced.

And - believe it or not - it happens as soon as I include my pendant.hal file.

Here is a screencast. Its 100% reproducable.


As soon as "G54" is highlighted in the top left corner, everything is fine. When its "off", I always get this popup...

Does this make any sense to you?
this is my config.

so i dont understand how these correspond to physical pins on the remora board itself, do you still have to add those manualy in the code.
# estop and SPI comms enable and feedback

net user-enable-out <= iocontrol.0.user-enable-out => remora.enable
net user-request-enable <= iocontrol.0.user-request-enable => remora.reset
net remora-status <= remora.status => iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in


espacialy for the x-axis i dont see where the enable pin is or where the xp+, xp-, xd+,xd- are refferencd in the code here. i realy dot get it, the documentaion is not making sence.

# joint 0 setup (X axis)

setp remora.joint.0.scale [JOINT_0]SCALE
setp remora.joint.0.maxaccel [JOINT_0]STEPGEN_MAXACCEL

net j0pos-cmd joint.0.motor-pos-cmd => remora.joint.0.pos-cmd
net j0pos-fb remora.joint.0.pos-fb => joint.0.motor-pos-fb
net j0enable joint.0.amp-enable-out => remora.joint.0.enable
