PnCConf Error with 7i80DB

You are correct, I redid the HAL file yesterday and completely forgot to put in the IP address of the board. Doh!

Thanks!

Almost there. Turns out that the board shouldn't be called 7i80DB, just 7i80 whenever it's called in the HAL file. hm2_7i80.0.7i77.0.0.output etc etc.. That's takes care of most of the errors but there's another one that I can't figure out.

parameter or pin 'scale.spindle.gain' not found

It's used in the following line:

Ideas?

Code:

setp scale.spindle.gain 60

That is normally used to get an RPM number from the revs-per-second output of the spindle encoder velocity pin.

I would expect there to be a "loadrt scale names = spindle.scale" somewhere in the HAL file to create it.

If you don't have a spindle encoder then you should comment it out, if you do, then add the loadrt line (and an addf to the servo thread)

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks again man, you've been a huge help getting this thing up and running!
