Sorry for the double post. I already found several examples of carousel and tool changers that circumvent this HAL (Probe Basic also seems to use its own implementation in the var file). Is it save to assume that this function just doesnt work?

If so, I will just follow the PB implementation and add/modify the pockets in my var file and (try) to use these.

Okay, I found the issue why the PB remapping was not used. The python had to be activated in the ini as follows.


 

Found one instance:
forum.linuxcnc.org/27-driver-boards/5339...-over-current#306578
Also, is the 6V1 a regulated or unregulated rectifier?
What is the voltage on that rail when everything is powered on and when everything is powered off?
If you have a scope, do a trace of that rail while flipping the some big relays on/off, see how much they induce to the DC side.

Use PncConf to create a basic minimal config for 7i92 with 7i77, then we can modify it to fit the 7i97T and give it a try.
Simple 3 axis config, no spindle, no I/O, no MPG, nothing else.
Also upload one of the existing configs that run so we can get the card addresses.

If that is actually the line powering the Mesa boards, I have made an artistic representation of the issue, see attached:


As mentioned many times here on the forum by several members, do NOT cut on/off the DC side of power to Mesa boards... and stepper/servo drives.
I will leave it to PCW to explain why as i might make a mess.

@ Rüdiger,

Max acc scurve = 2 x acc.
at scurve inflection point the
Scurve acc = 2 x acc.
see  scurve lib abstract.
 

Hello,
I tested further and apparently the acceleration is not limited. In the ini it says 'MAX_ACCELERATION = 5000' in the halscope at approx. -10000.

Gruß Rüdiger

 

So i received the card back with no reported problems but i still cant get any output to my drives. I completely reinstalled Linuxcnc, Mesa flash and Mesa CT with the same results. I'm at a total loss with this thing.. I tried to use the Pncconf wizard but it doesn't support the card I bought. Would i be better off sending this on back and getting some of the older ones that are a little more user friendly?
