For my setups I like to use MESAs 7i76E cards.
I got mine here:

Aciera,
Thanks for posting the switchkins info.
I'm working on a standard 5 axis config at the moment with a double y for gantry. Could switchkins be a solution to standard homing and jogging in trivkins mode,double y, then switching to 5axiskins or xyzbc-trt-kins do the tcp? I assume I would still need to address the joint synchronization. This would be a tiliting rotating spindle machine.
I started a new thread as I need guidance with the basics on multi axis setup XYYZBC-str config :

Good morning ,
- In order to start again on a virgin Lcnc configuration, I bought a virgin PC, installed linuxmint 19+ lcnc 2.8. in order to be able to use the xyzac-trt-kins module (5 axis synchronization)
-Now I find the inability to configure my .hal & .ini files.
-I cannot, on version 2.8, reconfigure my 5 axes (standrad "trivkins" module to begin with.
- I created a configuration (under 2.8 Lcnc) 4 axes and mondified the ".hal / .ini" files) from my old configuration ( Lcnc 2.7.14) in order to put my 5 axes (xyzac) back, and change some variables like (JOINT / AXIS. ..etc
- and there I encounter a lot of problem impossible to demerer Lcnc, always an error.
- I attach my last two files.
Could you please help me out and say what's wrong?
Thank you in advance for your help .
Regards

From your hal file:Those should all be 4, not 5
And in your ini fileshould be joint 4
setp stepgen.5.position-scale [JOINT_5]SCALE
setp stepgen.5.steplen 1
setp stepgen.5.stepspace 0
setp stepgen.5.dirhold 35000
setp stepgen.5.dirsetup 35000
setp stepgen.5.maxaccel [JOINT_3]STEPGEN_MAXACCEL
net apos-cmd joint.5.motor-pos-cmd => stepgen.5.position-cmd
net apos-fb stepgen.5.position-fb => joint.5.motor-pos-fb
net astep <= stepgen.5.step
net adir <= stepgen.5.dir
net aenable joint.5.amp-enable-out => stepgen.5.enableAnd in your ini file
[JOINT_5]

That error is because you use the same signal names in joint.3.- and joint.4.- sections.
You need to use new signal-names, like this:
setp stepgen.4.position-scale [JOINT_4]SCALE
setp stepgen.4.steplen 1
setp stepgen.4.stepspace 0
setp stepgen.4.dirhold 35000
setp stepgen.4.dirsetup 35000
setp stepgen.4.maxaccel [JOINT_4]STEPGEN_MAXACCEL
net bpos-cmd joint.4.motor-pos-cmd => stepgen.4.position-cmd
net bpos-fb stepgen.4.position-fb => joint.4.motor-pos-fb
net bstep <= stepgen.4.step
net bdir <= stepgen.4.dir
net benable joint.4.amp-enable-out => stepgen.4.enable

Hello ,
- I was therefore able to carry out my configuration and run Lcnc 2.8 without error.
- Effectively the emergency stop button and the original socket contacts no longer work with version 2.8.
- However, I checked with "halmetre" and all the signals pass without problem ??? I have communication with my "break out" card.
- If again you can help me, i attach my .hal & .ini file ?
Thank you for your attention

So does the external emergency stop button fail to stop the machine?
I'm not clear what you mean by " original socket contacts".
Can you start the machine through the gui or does the external emergency stop signal keep the gui in estop?

You have
and farther down:
This looks a bit odd:
If you have your external estop connected to parport.0.pin-10-in-not then you have not connected the signal estop-ext to anything
also estop-loop parport.0.pin-01-in is commented out
net estop-out => parport.0.pin-01-out
net estop-ext <= parport.0.pin-10-in-not
#net estop-loop parport.0.pin-01-in iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in
and farther down:
net estop-out <= iocontrol.0.user-enable-out
net estop-out => iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in
