NCAM or Native CAM

Yes.
Do check if the ralay has one already, some do but mostly do not have it.

Not sure about the executables (might be too old a libc version),
but you can get by by just programming the FPGA via JTAG
and running the two mesaflash commands.

Here is the FTDI4232 --> 10 pin header connection:

That way, correct?

 

These are basic with just the X axis.

First thing you want to find out is what kind of signal interface the axes and spindle drives use (ie analog +-10V, step/direction, serial interface) that will then largely dictate the options to go forward.

links are now fixed!

"Should I move this thread over to the Gmoccapy section?"

Yes

I think that's a locale bug on pncconf:

As I wait for my 7I96s to arrive I’m playing with the PcConfing trying to set it up and I keep getting stopped at this point.
im using a Rasberry pi 4
XY lathe
Gmoccapy
7i96s -internal data
Firmware 7i96s_7i74 
When I go to apply the stepper config I get this error.
what am I entering wrong or missing? 

 

Hi all!

I was asked by friend to help him modernize the above mentioned machine.
It is still fully operational but programming it is PITA.
We would like to use something modern and not break the bank.

That's what got me here.

I am IT guy with some basic CNC understanding.
I also have available Advantech PPC-L106 R70-XE industrial panel PC we could use but that might be an overkill.
Laptop on the side would be perfectly acceptable.

I am 100% confident I could install LinuxCNC but configuring it to work safely with that machine might be a steep learning curve.

Any pointers in ht right direction are highly appreciated.

And now excuse me, I have reading to do.
