Hi there, 

I'm using a 7i92,7i77,7i76 and 7i70.
I'm busy with a 5axis machine.
Firmware on the 7i92 is: 7i92_7i77_7i76D.bit

There are only 3 encoders available on this firmware for the 7i77.

I need to use all 7 encoder channels for feedback.
I also need to use all 5 stepgen channels on the 7i76.

Please could someone assist me with the correct firmware for this?

Thanks and Regards, Diekie.

That firmware has 7 encoders and 5 stepgens

Note that each "Muxed QCount" FPGA pin connects to two physical encoder pins
so 3 muxed encoder pin sets interface to 6 encoders total.

This is how the 7I77 can have 6 encoder inputs (which would normally  take 18 pins or A,B,Z  times 6)
and only use 10 of the 17 available FPGA  interface pins.
