Re: boards and kits and stuff
I spent about a month working with the STM32H747I-DISCO Discovery board.? It has good debugging capabilities. My goal was to get a mockup of the T41 code running on the dual core processor, with DSP

Re: boards and kits and stuff
I agree. The T41 development time would have been years less if there was a decent debugger. I can't believe that the Arduino people don't have the talent to incorporate a debugger in the IDE. Jack,

Re: boards and kits and stuff
My experience with the display is different (better) because I made changes to the design while still using the same display driver IC. The display problems I was referring to are V12 only.? Basic
Re: boards and kits and stuff
It¡¯s a pretty solid machine but that is without plugging it in yet¡­ so don¡¯t know exactly what will happen long term. I did get the circuit board making kit and the example is a LED board with

Got the laser attachment and the rotating 4th axis as well¡­ Uses G-code so compatible with a lot of systems and sortwares. Works with aluminum, wood, plastic, glass, etc. Can¡¯t wait to try it! Dr.

Re: boards and kits and stuff
Sounds like you got a good machine.? I'm guessing your experience will go better than mine.? I tried this with a budget CNC a year ago.? After a bit of a learning curve and some small successes, I

Re: boards and kits and stuff
Looking back at my notes, I see I misspoke: With a long display cable, the v12 code hangs while trying to start the RA8875 object in the setup routine.

Re: boards and kits and stuff
I've tested this.? The T41 doesn't get to the setup routine when a long display cable is used.? It gets stuck trying to create the RA8875 object.

Re: boards and kits and stuff
I'm just wondering if the current design gets all it can from the default driver setting.? My tests show that crosstalk is a problem on the display cable and that modifying the SPI signal order on it

Re: boards and kits and stuff
I just made a 20' cable. It works fine for the front panel buttons, but when I install it for the display the screen doesn't come on. Is that useful information, or did everyone expect that?

Re: boards and kits and stuff
Hi Terrance- The original V11 Main board design uses a driver IC for the SPI bus which drives the display.? Same for the original kits.? No one complained about display issues that I can recall.

Re: boards and kits and stuff
I'll try mine out with a very long cable as well. Regarding future Main board designs, has routing the SPI traces to minimize crosstalk been considered?
By Terrance Robertson, KN6ZDE · #33115 ·
Re: boards and kits and stuff
In your case, try out a LONG cable¡­ say 3 feet and see if that works. If it does, I¡¯ll start mass-producing them¡­ and possibly get Oliver to place the circuitry on a V12.7 main board for future
