Help me use two 7i96s in Ethernet switch to control 6 joints was created by sin-do-re
Hello. Recently I’ve had problems controlling XYZAB because in fact I have two YY motors, so I need 6 Stepgens to avoid some issues I was having. I added a 7i96s card and a switch, and added 10.10.10.11 and 10.10.10.12 in the Ethernet connections, also with gate 8. I’m not sure how to proceed with the ini/hal changes, tried some ideas around adding a second card IP, card1 read and write, and others, but no matter how, I couldn’t power up the system with both cards. Is there a base config o could work with to have both cards working? Any tips in having both cards working? I can ping both IPs, but I’m not sure if i won’t have other connectivity issues. Thank you in advance.

You need two network cards for that, no switch.
