Are there example 5i25 configurations available anywhere, preferably
for a stepper (not server) system?
I couldn't find anything in the example configurations or on the wiki.
...or is one of the examples for the other cards usable for the 5i25?

We just retrofitted a Gerber gantry router (stepper machine) over
thanksgiving w/ a 5i25+7i76. Only hiccup was a bad pc. All you do is run
Pncconf and you're good to go. Chris and Peter have done a great job.
Example configurations really aren't needed? I could dig up the pncconf
file and

I tried pncconf, but must have somehow managed to overlook the 5i25
option. I'll try this again when I can reboot my test system into the
RTAI Ubuntu install (I'm on PREEMPT-RT Debian right now, trying to
code user-mode hardware access).

With the 5i25 this will only list the stepgen (etc) counts and there
is little to be gained from not using the default (max)

You can also take one of the existing hm2-step .ini files (say
5i23.ini) and just change the HOSTMOT2 section:
DRIVER=hm2_pci BOARD=5i25 CONFIG=num_encoders=1 num_stepgens=3
for example
Thanks!
Hello! I am building an 5 axis milling machine similar to this one (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1DCXe9t3UE ) the only diference is that my
machine has the rotary table fixed on the milling table and the other axes are
configured like this ( B axis is the tilting head that is carryed by

Sven, 2 things you MUST do.
1. Turn off the hyper-threading in the bios.
2. Add isolcpus=1 to the end of the grub kernel line.
Oh yes I did that already. Latest BIOS firmware and running fastest rated
SSD disc too.
CNCLinux no tweaks installation.
The kinematics may not be wrong. It depends on what the gcode is telling
the machine to do.
Just saying the kinematics is wrong doesn't lead anyone to be able to
understand where your problem is.
A simple post processor will generate gcode that needs the kinematics in
the machine to run a part.
Thanks for you answer Stuart! I generate my G-code with a generic fanuc 5 axis
post proccesor and it doesn't compensate the tool lenght or the B axis pivot
point, so i need to incorporate the kinematics in the machine control. I'm not
that good with linux and i do not know how to do all this

You may be able to use the existing kinematics as a guide.
You will need kinematics to compensate for tool length. You can find
examples at linuxcnc.org.
Dimension values in the kinematics files need to match the machine to
compensate for pivot length or any geometric errors you have in the

That's not Linux, it is C code.
The point is that my machine has the same kinematics as that vismach max5kins

Thanks, i'll try that! I'll let you know if this will work. About C code..it's
all blur for me :) From: bodge...@gmail.com

Yes, of course it can. You need a way to read the encoders into the PC.

Putting encoders on a stepper is an obvious idea that occurs to everyone
