Welcome to LinuxCNC.org

first download this zip file and extract it on your desktop This attachment is hidden for guests. Please log in or register to see it.

now If you have played with pncconf and saved a file pncconf adds a preference file its called:
.pncconf-preferences
if you haven't saved a file make a dummy one so this file is written.
after that load pncconf again and your firmware SVST6_6 should be available (chose 7i43-4 of course).

If there is a problem check that file.
Its a hidden file so to see it you must
click on show hidden' under 'view' in the file browser.
in that file there should be a line that looks like this:

<property name="customfirmwarefilename" type="string" value="~/Desktop/custom_firmware/firmware.py"/>

If not add it and try again.

I forgot to mention, in case you didnt know to add the PIN file Peter sent you in the folder
/lib/firmware/hm2/7i43-4

probably need root access to do that

thanks for the reply.
but it does not work.
I added the bit file
and downloaded firmware.py
and extract it on the desktop.
I put the text in the file also,
if it was the right file?

when you extracted it was it still in the folder named custom_firmware ? It should be.

The text should go in the file named .pncconf-preferences

Then open pncconf from a terminal when the splash screen shows it should say
something like "Pncconf founf extra firmware"
it should also say something like:

/home/chris/Desktop/custom_firmware/firmware.py

You are sure your using 2.5 ( hmm when did you get 2.5?)

I have 2.5, but would perhaps not
download from buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ lucid master-rt
