so I have this working ish but I want to bring up 2 items

1. when setting up gs2 vfd inside of pncconf having the ability to declare the device in my case /dev/ttyUSB0 would be very help full. providing the a list of the /dev/ttys... and /dev/ttyUSB... would be great

2. when follow the setup instruction the vfd would change direct ccw vs cw but would not go into run, I looked at the pin states and for some reason spindle-vfd.spindle-on is not going high. I used sim-pin and pulled it high and all of he sudden the vfd started working

any thoughts on why ?

I am adding my vfd config and machine config that were created by pnconf the only manual change that I have made is to change the device id in the gs2-vfd.hal to /ttyUSB0

Thank you for the help

so i figured this out

in the gs2-vfd config i had to change

net spindle-on => spindle-vfd.spindle-on

to

net spindle-enable => spindle-vfd.spindle-on

once i made this change it all works correctly now

just in case anyone runs into this problem
