Finally came around to start implementing everything. Freshly installed linuxcnc doesn´t recognize the mesa card though. I've set W5 down to load basic configuration in case the eeprom firmware has some issues. I can only see the Texas Instruments PCIE bridge when i list all connected PCI hardware in terminal

Does the 6I25 finish configuration loading?  (no red LEDs except briefly at power up)

Is the 6I25 jumpered for 33 MHz PCI clock?

Hi, i made it run (badly) with the 7i77 alone but decided to add a 7i84U for some further inputs to revive all features the machine originally had.
I can´t seem to make the TB6 sserial connection work with any bitfile included in the 5i25 repository. Its 6i25 P3 to P1 7i77 and TB6 to 7i84. Is there something available or something that might just work?
Best,
Lukas

The standard 5i25_7i77x2.bit supports sserial on TB6

Do you have the added channel enabled in the hal file?

when running said bitfile and using

loadrt hm2_pci config="sserial_port_0=7i77,2500000 sserial_port_1=7i84,2500000"

it doesn´t show a second sserial device when:

sudo mesaflash --device 5i25 --readhmid | grep -i sserial

Maybe i am using the wrong nomenclature or baudrate?
