Nice and straightforward.
Is that a 100 pulse per turn encoder? Does that give enough resolution?

Hi Matthieu
My next suggestion would have been to see if the port works but you have
done that now.
I suggest that you email Peter Wallace at Mesa directly. He might be
able to help better.

Chris did confirm that there is a bug when you dont use the default

loadrt hm2_7i43 config="ioaddr=0x3bc firmware=hm2/7i43-2/SVST4_4.BIT

linuxcncrsh has opened the file, clicking this button reloads the previous

Marius,
Well I have only one parallel port in this laptop and I want that the
7i43 that is connected to it to the port at the address 0x3BC.
When I connect the same 7i43 to an atom based workstation it works well
because the address of the port is 0x378.

I tried also with 25% more on stepgen_maxvel and maxaccel. Not better.
I checked the enable, it works fine. Pncconf was generating a different
named net. Once fixed at least the axis moves. But I get following
errors and occasional grinding if I increase the MIN_FERROR
I rechecked within pnccon

Looking at the source code pncconf actually sets maxacc and maxvel to 0
during the test. but that should make the test possibly worse not better.

In recent tests, I connect to a running LinuxCNC 2.5.3 process (Axis 2.5.3 gui)
with linuxcncrsh and nc. If I open an ngc file using linuxcncrsh commands like:
...
set mode auto
set open file.ngc
...
then the running Axis process shows that a new file has been loaded by a change
in its banner, bu
This is a stepper system, trivkins, 3 axis mill.
I kind of assumed that the tuning in pncconf is using the configuration
that it will write, it's not very useful if one tunes things but then
the parameters to use are different...
so you are referring to these

/STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 21.0/

It might be that Pncconf doesn't teack following error, or has higher limits.

Hi,
I configured a mesa 5i25 with prob_rfx2 firmware with pncconf and the
xml files found here
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.user/33697
In pncconf, that works fine, I can hit the test/tune button to run tests
on each axis. The movement is smooth and fast.
After confi
If it is the case then it's confirmed that PNCConf has a bug because it
should generate this kind of configuration when a non default address is
specified for the parallel port.
Matthieu.
Yes this is a confirmed bug.

The HAL file is correct. The PNCCONF utility will load the Mesa card
drivers as it does.
What you are wanting to do is load an extra parallel port. This is not
the same as the 7i43 card but rather a parport. You should add to your
HAL file the following stuff.
