Yes correct does not work reliably to 115200 the problem appears to 9600 default speed and 32 i/o of module work fine the time bugs appears.
Problem maybe is not noise related because changing the order
of function lines without changing functions or pins in pin file the problem appears elsewhere..
Also appears in encoder of P1 port and eletech is connected to P3 via ttl to modbus adapter.
Chanching the ordering of functions in constant ModuleID : ModuleIDType without changing pin entries
changes the problem.
From that tests i have done is not due noise but software related maybe some data are written or read from wrong place.

You can set the file to be loaded on startup by adding this to the [DISPLAY] section of your ini file:
OPEN_FILE = /full/path/to/file.ngc
If you want no file loaded you can try

The main shortcomings I can think of:
- it's built primarily for my current conversion project (XYZW axis Bridgeport knee mill). I undid many of the things in QtAxis that made it a more generalized.
- it's built specifically for a 1920x1080 touchscreen in landscape
- I intentionally stripped out key shortcuts because I am integrating a physical control panel, and intend to change several more things for the same reason soon.
- No documentation

I was able to figure out where to add the GUI files and sim config files in the source tree, so I can submit a PR if desired. I'm still not sure if it's a more hassle for everyone to make it part of LinuxCNC right now vs. continuing development in my own repo until it's more mature.

The encoder data issue may be electrical noise related.

I guess it could be a Mesa modbus bug but its a bit strange
that it seems to affect physically nearby signals.

How is the RS-485 interface connected to the 7I80?

Also on baud rate issue, the eletec I/O module will not run at 115200
baud reliably, it crashes and can only be recovered by a power cycle
of the I/O module. I suspect a stack error at 115200 baud  interrupt
rates in the I/O module. Running at 115200 baud the card crashes in
a few hours, at 9600 baud its been running a week so far.

There is another config that shows bug to pktuart module..
With this config and connected eletech 32io modbus module that is in working condition
in halshow encoder.04 read crazy data without connected anything to it.
if disconnect eletech module crazy data stop appear in encoder inputs .

The problem seems related to hostmot2 firmware or linuxcnc driver.
Memory leak?

in the ini file
HOME_OFFSET = -3
if metric
and
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = YES
So it does not trip limits while homing.

main.hal:31: Pin 'hm2_5i25.0.7i77.0.4.analogena' does not exist

The channel 4 above makes no sense (on a basic 7I77 configuration the analog channel would be 1)

Correct..do not use spindle control.  Eliminated those sections and references.  CNC now starts until encountering the axis.ngc file for the splash display which is XYZ coordinates instead of XZC. So, struggling trying to replace the file with my old splash file which was in XZC coordinates.  The file is in a read only root directory (usr/share/images/axis.ngc I believe) and I have not yet figured out how to paste in the new file.

In any event, considerable progress and light at the end of the tunnel.  

Thanks so much for the assistance and accommodating my limited competence in LINUX.

I just watched your YouTube video on you high speed ohmic and it’s impressive. I’m sitting at 20”/sec starting at 1”. I tryied 50”/sec and I seamed to tap the sheet hard enough to float the torch up a smidge which is unacceptable as I normally use small 11x23” sheets of thin material and that hard of a tap can shift them. Abd these sheets are quite pricy at $200-$300 each. I would like to speed it up but if I can’t then I understand. Here is a video of the test cutting. Any recommendations? 

oh and one other question. I only have one switch on each axis for the home/limit switch. In the past I just used them as limit switches but on this install I used them as combination home/limit switches. So now I can auto home the system but once it homes the first axis it stops moving because it thinks it reached the hard stop switch. Is there a way to program in a retract off axis after homing so it does not trigger this hard stop alarm?

1, I set up a number of these drives about a year ago, going from memory, the 5v/24v switch is only applicable to the drives step/dir pins. I am pretty sure I used 24v for the enable input and the error outputs.

2. see #1

3. You could combine the alarm signals, but then when one alarms you won't know which one without opening the cabinet and looking at the drive's leds.

4. With the drives homes wired independently you can do simultaneous homing. With limits separate you can tell which joint is on which limit. (Sometimes this isn't obvious if multiple motors are close to their limits or if you have a wire or switch failure.)

5. ? There's more than one way to do this. But I usually had both an estop out and in to the control to include in the loop.

6. You only need one input for a probe.

AFAIK those breakouts do not have a 5V regulator, you must supply 5V.
So the behavior you see is pretty much as expected. That is, the 5V side is being
powered (weakly) via the PC parallel port data pins.

The regulator just supplies the inputs and the analog spindle interface
(regulates to 12V)

With network interface for stable and interference-free data transmission
Connection also via network switch, direct connection to PC not necessary
Fast 32-bit microprocessor generates motor signals independently of the PC
Robust real-time timing, clock frequency up to 1.6 MHz (all axes simultaneously)
Operating voltage 5V
Outputs for 4 axes, X, Y, Z and A
6 TTL inputs (5V) e.g. for reference switches, 1 of which for emergency stop
4 digital TTL outputs, one of them PWM output for spindle control
Supports current reduction and status signal of the output stages 
With pin header socket
