Need basic ini/hal/pathpilot.json files for new versions 2.10/2.12 was created by gmouer
Been trying to get PP 2.12 to boot in a bare bones configuration to get me started on a non-tormach retrofit. All the instructions and sample files here on the forum will not work with the latest versions, I tried them all.
What I am looking for is hal/ini and pathpilot files (bare bones) just to get me booted and started. Eventually I will be using a 5i25/7i77 mesa but do not want to take them from a working machine until I get much closer to a working pathpilot configuration.
Can anyone help me out with some sample files, something similar to the ones in the tutors here but more current that will work with 2.12 pathpilot. (2.10 would be ok too to get me started)
Thanks !

Hi,
did you look through this thread where I got PathPilot running on a non-Tormach mill?
forum.linuxcnc.org/pathpilot/45846-pathpilot-7i92-g540-hal-file
cheers,
Peter.

I sure did look at your thread and files.
What I am basically looking for is a minimal hal file that will allow PP to start. I don't know which parts of the various hal files posted are mandatory and needed to get PP to launch, leaving out anything not mandatory.
In the end I will use it on a bridgeport that has servo's using a 5i25 and 7i77 board. The mill has been operational for years using linuxcnc but I would like to switch to PP mostly for the excellent conversational. I have not seen any other conversational that even comes close. (I have used nativecam which is the next best thing)
Meanwhile, I have made progress. I got it to launch in sim mode. I also got a INI file that works with the mesa cards I have but crashes due the hal file various pins etc being wrong.
A absolute minimal hal file would help lots, I can add to that once I have PP launching withuot crashes.
