Is it possible to define which pins on a 7i92 an encoder uses?

Hello everybody, I picked up a cheap ebay MPG and went to wire it in to my system, but realized I don't have the ability to use the pins that encoder 0 exists on. I have attached my hal files, but a short summary below for convenience.

In my .hal file I updated my loadrt statement so that it does have 1 encoder, and mesaflash tells me that encoder 0 is on pins 30, 31, and 32, but those pins are on my G540 and already in use by my limit switches. Is there any way that I can reassign the encoder pins to something like pins 013 and 015 on the 7i75 board?

thanks for any help!

Is the 7i75 not a good card? It's been working well for me so far although I think I might end up regretting trying to save some money and not just buying the 7i76 from the get-go. I thought I would never need that much IO but here I am having nearly completely filled what I have available...

I'm fine with flashing firmware as long as I can get someone to walk me through how to compile it because I really don't want to brick my 7i92!

Thanks Tommy, I'll hang around for others to respond

For a MPG, you would probably want a INM module, as this supports the
1x mode that gets you one count per detent

Do you have a 7I92 or 7I92T?

Thanks PCW!

I have the 7i92M (not T, this is a few years old). I don't mind getting a quad signal per detent, I have my hal set up to adjust the scaling by dividing by 4.

I don't know what INM is and google is failing me, could you explain?

INM is the input module and it has up to 4 MPG encoders built in

Its described in the hostmot2 manual page

Also what firmware are you using currently?
 

I'm using the firmware you provided for me in this thread. I'll have a read through the man page.

EDIT: it's interesting that none of the writeups or documentation I could find (other than the man page for hostmot2 as mentioned) actually use the inm module, they always use the raw encoders from the mesa cards. Is there any particular reason for that other than people not being aware of the inm modules?
