Remora - Rpi Software Stepping Using External Microcontroller via SPI
Great job you have done and share, many thanks for comunity !
Any plan to use ethernet for replace spi ?

I've got a W5500 ethernet module sitting on the bench. Just no experience with ethernet and UDP and the best way to setup on the firmware site. The SPI running under DMA has nearly zero cpu overhead whereas ethernet comms would come with some overhead.

This is what I get from UART
Cable is 4in long. Copied exactly the same as manual, even colour.
Config is remora-xyz sample config
Board is skr v1.4 , with lcp1768
Loaded firmware lcp1768 firmware.bin to the root of sd
Loaded skr1.3 config.txt to root of sd
How can I diagnose this?
Ive done this from the github, but dont know where to go now.

Less latency?
Also I am In the process of rebuilding vtk for rpi4 64bit for python 2.7 and qt5. Should be done in a few more hours.
The 64bit rpi images seem to have better latency.

This is not a valid port and pin assignment. And you will see that the pin is not created properly at the bottom. If you do not need the encoder remove it from the config.txt and see what happens.
Ah, that will do it, didnt think about changing the config. Thanks, seems to be working now.
edit, If you guys want to play with some newer prebuilt units, I installed remora on one of these installs 64bit prebuilds, you can use full ram with them.
forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...xcnc?start=40#204950
I had a full 4gb with the older 32bit images and its only become an issue recently, and full 8gb with newer 32bit 5.4 rt kernels evovalvo posted in another thread. the ram was explained as, that it can use full 8gb, but can only allocate max 3gb to any process
