PicoBOB-DLX

Hello everybody,
I do have a self build portal CNC machine with LinuxCNC and LPT running. Never really disappointed me, well maybe it could be a little less noisy (more microsteps). Now a WABECO F1210 found its way into my workshop. I would like to convert the whole system to LinuxCNC since I got the whole "chain" for this running. When I started LPT was the choice of the time. Now I read about MESA and stuff. ChatGPT brought me to the PicoBOB-DLX. This thing looks quite like a smart "simple" solution. Does someone has this running? Since I got some kids since my last build the "free" time did not get more... So I am really interested in a quite simple solution.
regards Han

Stick with Mesa, loads of info, it works without issues, they've been around for ages. Support is fantastic. A 7i92T gives you 2 lpt like interfaces. So 34 io pins, can be expanded via SmartSerial cards to get even more io. Mesa drivers are part of the Linuxcnc source code, so you know they will always be supported.

Oh BTW chatgpt has given so much useless info regarding Linuxcnc it's gone past be a joke to a complete waste of time.
