hi andypugh thank you for replying. What interface would you recommend for getting started? I’m not looking for anything too fancy — just something to get the first few projects running. I’ll upgrade the machine later.As for second-hand servos, I haven’t been able to find many good options here. Most of the ones I’ve seen have been used almost to the point of failure, so I’m worried that if I buy them, they might break down quickly and I’ll end up spending twice as much.

this is your config.txt and it loads on the board via tfpt, hence the NVEM in the title. It is board specific, and is the only thing board specific.

github.com/scottalford75/Remora-RT1052-c.../remora-rt1052-basic
this is the hal/ini file. it is not board specific. the same hal/ini file will work with the ec300 ec500 and nvem.

load the config.txt to the board, and load the remora-rt1052-basic in linuxcnc
dont go to any other github repos. dont run the file through AI. you configure your machine in the ini file.

hi rodw, thank you very much!
I have a question: if I don’t use Beckhoff and just use the computer’s Ethernet port or network card, how can I control things like the VFD for the spindle motor or coolant flow? Where would I connect those? Also, I live in Iran and unfortunately Mesa FPGA cards are not available here.
it’s almost like North Korea here — we can’t really order anything from abroad, so I haven’t been able to get any Mesa FPGA cards
