MESA 7I92 programming

You would need to specify which pins are:

step0/dir0 step1/dir1 etc encoder a,b,z PWM

1 port: IDC26 NORMAL LPT. PORT.
1 X DIR
2 X STEP
3 Y DIR
4 Y STEP
5 Z DIR
6 Z STEP
7 A DIR
8 A STEP
9 B DIR
14 B STEP
17 PWM


2 PORT: IDC BIDIRECTIONAL LPT. PORT.
11 Encoder A
12 Encoder B
13 Encoder Z
17 Charge Pump 10 KHz. max 16Khz.

This should be close assuming your pin numbers are DB25 parallel port numbers

 

 

20 years ago I tried Linux CNC once, but I gave up due to language barriers and the European purchase restrictions of the cards.
I have built quite a few CNC machines in the past 40 years in systems running under Win.
Today's language translation programs can be an incredible help.
Clone cards are now available at a reasonable price, so I thought I would try the Linux world again.
The helpfulness that the Linux forum provides is amazing.
A special shout out to PCW for his help and expertise that he shares.
I am an electrical engineer and I can create an electrical circuit diagram in minutes. My limitations when it comes to PC programming are huge. I have been trying Linux for 2 weeks. I still have a lot of questions. Today I will upload the unique configuration I received from PCW to the 7I92 card.

I'm civil/builder/construction labourer, using the page I linked to I was able to create Mesa bitfiles (then some custom ones for a clone board I made).

What it comes down to is being able to follow instructions.
