Passing a speed value to an interface card

Well upgrading is prolly the best method, and rest assured I will soonBut I suppose it would be best if I would quit being lazy and figure out how to use thw PWN/PDM function from LinuxCNC. Then I get all the bells and whistles like spindle overide. My issue was not wanting to monitor the PWM close enough to get an accurate reading. But If I can slow the frequency down to a slow enough (mind you I don't even know what it is or how to set it at this point) then I don't have to worry so much about accuracy.

As for updating, it is always painful for me as I NEVER have internet access fro my machines. Of course that may be faster then trying to learn the PWM generator at this point

2.4 to 2.5 may be a little more painful than usual.
There may be a few pointers here ...

I have in the past pulled the hard disk from the machine and installed it in another computer that had access.

Well currently I have it all working using PWM out. I need to adjust a few things cuz it starts at S450 and top speed is S1000, but that is just a numbers thing. the motor is going through its full speed range.

Thanks all, and I do still plan to upgrade to 2.5
