No idea, also didn't see an option to compile for non lts, sometimes things are easier than they seem
Better to set isolcpus=5 or 2-5 because linuxcnc always takes the last core and the quad core a53 is after the 2xa72

Ideally you would set isolcpus=1 but then you need to set the rt tasks to core 1 manually, via a script or change the source of linuxcnc.

You can try this image, with desktop and gpu hw acceleration but under 1GB:

It's laughable...did not worked tweaking & reweaking to modified it for opi4 ...
your image simply worked as is ...lesson learned here..
i dont understand , if armbian image for opi4 lts work on opi4 why the hell armbian link to non lts ?!?
You tell me , because everything seem to be good .
Trying some isolcpu 1,2 , no latency miracle ,should be ok , cutting air .
Let'see if i can install 2.9.3 now.

Good job Roya ..

I try to get two tandem motor to work. But the moment one side hits the home/limit switch I get the error Cannot unhome while homing, joint 0. So to me it looks like he tries to unhome joint 1 while he still tries to home joint 0

And another question can I somehow let the motors move away from the limit/home switches once they are in a fail state. Because they are tandem I can't just use ignore limits option

So I installed the  SSC tool app on both my laptop- Windows 11 and PC- Windows 10[Intel Lan). The EEPROM app crashed when I tried to scan, it shows nothing connected on either interface. I have tried this as Admin as well.
DHCP is set and I've tried both lan sockets and different cables. The same lan sockets work fine for Internet and file transfer. 
 Could I have missed a network protocol that needs installing to see the servos? 

I have built a new stepdir driver,
with adjustable 'delay after dir' and adjustable pulse length (also 50% duty possible).

first tests are still running, but if you want to have a look at the branch: new_stepdir_fix_pulse_len_dir_delay

EDIT (there is also a test-bench for this driver):
 # (cd riocore/plugins/stepdir ; make testb)

 

The battery test requires you to:

1. Enable the drives ( how this is done depends on the drives )
2. Disconnect the drives from the 7I97

The is no frequency/LinuxCNC/7I97 involved

So... the tuning guide I keep finding when doing searches, but always stop when I can't jog properly forward and backwards. Forward is sometimes shaky, but last few times trying forward it usually moves and stops roughly when I do. 
Drives : Cleveland Machine Controls D41-17443C
Servo Motor : CMC MT2630-141AF 
Encoders : Dynapar 62525000330

I'll have to get back to you on the current ini and hal files when I get a chance later this week. I'm using the basic 7i97 file I found on here and edited very little. 

I've been off and on working on this when I get the chance, everything is apart and on my table right now so no worries of something running away and damaging anything. Before this machine was taken apart for moving, I powered everything up with the original controls and verified everything moved fine and worked. The only thing ive done is rewired the box to the 7i97 and then reused some of the wiring to hook back to the motors/encoders. 

The 1.5v test (I used a 9v bc its what i had) didn't do anything. Not sure if its a frequency thing or not. If I leave the stock 48000hz frequency in the hal file I get nothing as well. 
I've noticed when I tell linuxcnc to jog the motors the 7i97 sends anywhere between 0 to 10v to the motor and slowly back it down to 0 as it gets closer to where it expects the motor to be. Again jogging backwards I see the 7i97 send between -0 to 10v but I either get no movement or movement in the positive direction again.
