Hey, Scott (or any volunteer)!

Have you had the time to look at my config files that are causing the following errors? I use the remora-nvem-basic config from github.com/scottalford75/Remora-NVEM/tree/main/LinuxCNC , also attached to this message.

Can you please share your .txt file you have uploaded to your board and also what is your ping response time?
It helps to add PGAIN to your hal file and .ini file.

Hello GeremyL, you talked about pins but I don't understand you, -, YP-...... are outputs of the am26ls31c differential line driver, this ic has 4 inputs and 4 pairs of differential outputs, therefore this ic convert GPIO_AD_B1_06 ( pad of rt1052) in + and -, the GPIO1 module can be connected in this pad through GPIO1_IO22(that is X_DIR_PIN), then -, YP-..... are not direct pins of rt1052 GPIO_AD_B1_06 yes it is, So if you have problems with the negative differential signals, I would look for the problem in the line drivers ic. Furthermore, to use these pads as input pins you have to modify the hardware, which does not seem attractive to me, greetings

Thank you very much rbobey1989, I haven’t had the time to investigate the IC chip or circuit much. I dont know if anything is exactly wrong with the IC chips they are probably fine, but to me it seems a little weird they would do it like this and I dont think my drivers like it very much, they are very high quality drivers so not sure if its quality or compatibility that I’m seeing non existing haha.

Sure! The config is attached. I have tried with both the nvem-basic-config.txt and nvem-full-config.txt, but the result is the same.

This is the respons time:
PING 10.10.10.10 (10.10.10.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

How would one go about adding PGAIN?

Hi, I've had a look at your config files and they are identical to mine, and I can run with a 1000% feed override without following errors....

Now I'm really scratching my head to understand what could be going on. Do you have the serial debug output connected? It would be interesting to see if there are any issues on the board.

Ping response times are longer than I'm getting though, averaging around 0.17ms. Do you have a router in between the NVEM and computer?
