Support for i.MX RT1050 version

[zelo]

I bought EC500 and got version with i.MX RT1052 chip instead stm32.

Is it possible to add support for this version?

Hi, work to support the iMX RT1052 boards is underway. Can you share where you got your board so that one can be sourced for testing?

I bought it here: https://aliexpress.com/item/1005002571477474.html 3 axis version

Hi @zelo

I received the same controller like you even though i bought the "older" Version. Problem is that the shop supplied the drivers for the old version which does not work properly. would you mind sharing the drivers/software/manual that you received? I am looking for the Mach3 drivers. I want to switch over to linuxcnc at some point in time, but i would like to have all the cnc milling machines running before doing a major change.

Or maybe you have found out how this thing works with Mach3 and can share this info

thank you henning / heiterkiter / disposable email: peptisch_draehte.0g@icloud.com

PS sorry for misusing the issue section but zelo is the only occurance where i found this board :/

@heiterkiter I've bought the same version as you and @zelo but from a different store (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33005585841.html). I don't have access to a DVD drive right now, but I will in a few days, I'll copy the drivers I was given and post them here.

@scottalford75 Thank you for your hard work with Remora.

Hi thank you, that would be great. but i am afraid that those are the same drivers like mine since it is the same store. but let's give it a try

thanks

@heiterkiter Here is the data that was on my version of the DVD (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1C4RX2H5a1hEZMfcqlXHSFbignC4uWof9/view?usp=sharing). Was scanned with VirusTotal and nothing was found, but does not mean it's safe.

@d-franklin

thank you, it is exactly the same. i was hoping that @zelo had a different version but sadly no answer so far

Thank you again

[zelo]

@heiterkiter Sorry for no response, I have disabled notifications. I've got some mini CD with the package but I don't have any drive to actually read them. I would look here if there is anything newer: http://www.ddcnc.com/?m=home&c=Lists&a=index&tid=106&lang=en

thanks @zelo

the drivers on ddnc.com do not work. I have contacted the manufacturer directly and now i have functional drivers.

thanks guys

i am looking forward for the remora firmware

[heiterkiter]

and that is what i thought, the original drivers do not really work well :/
