Considering a Full Rewire on a Working Schaublin 125 CNC

Pictures of the wiring?

I will not be in the shop today, i will provide pictures of the wiering tomorrow.

Our set up with 5 Mesa cards is a pretty unusual one, so it might be beyond the scope of PNCConf to configure it. I only used PNCconf to get the basic frame work set up, and then did all the rest by manual editing the HAL, or in my case a bunch of hal files, as I found it easier to break the HAL into single topic files, and work through them one at a time.

Try the HAL's I sent you? Since we have the same cards, LinuxCNC may start with them (although it is more likely it faults out due to cards connected in a different order than mine. For some reason my second 7i84 mounts as 7i84.0.3, rather than 0.1 for example.
Cheers,
Mark

I did not see any files from you. But at this point, I am relatively certain that something is wrong with the 7i85 I am using. I had planned to just get the basic config running and then do the rest manually, but since I cannot get to a point where all cards are shown in HAL Show, I am a bit at a dead end.

I am seriously considering getting a 7i97T, as I have spent a week on this now and don’t really see where to go from here.

One way to maybe get this running would be to connect a 7i74 to the P1 connector of the 7i92, but there is no firmware available for that combination (7i92T + 7i74 on P1 + 7i85 on P2), and I am not nearly knowledgeable enough to create it myself.

I thought I emailed them to you last week. I'll check tonight.

Don’t worry, I don’t know how often I intended to attach something and then just didn’t. I asked when I was still having problems with the PnCconf setup, so it is not relevant anymore. But thanks.
