Pathpilot to non tormach machines Tutorial Part1

So just to clarify the error is:

tormach_mill_5i25.hal:217: parameter or pin 'hm2_5i25.0.gpio.005.is_output' not found

I am not seeing any reference to the 7i76 so I am guessing these are the equivalent options but don't know which I should be using. Does anyone have a reference file?

The output for pin is
hm2_5i25.0.gpio.005.in
hm2_5i25.0.gpio.005.in_not

The output for param is
hm2_5i25.0.gpio.005.invert_output
hm2_5i25.0.gpio.005.is_opendrain

this most likely reason for the this error is the 7i76 is not powered correctly

at the linux command line do a
start pathpilot in background
operator_login &
then
dmesg | grep hm2

you should see something like this
note the 7i76 references. if you do not see them you're 7i76 os not firing up correctly

operator@tormachpcnc:~$ dmesg | grep hm2

if you are not seeing it check you power and jumper settings are correct on the 7i76 board.
I had this same problem with mine.

AH this does a lot to connect what I have seen so far. Hopefully this weekend will see some good progress.
