Hello,
I've spent a few days getting Linuxcnc 2.9.7 up and running with a Mesa 5i25 board, properly flashed and functioning.
My hardware setup consists of 2no X-axis gecko 203V drives, 1no Y - axis, 1no Z-axis, and 1no A-axis.
I have x,y,z home switches, e-stop, and Highspeed Spindle.

I have been trying to get the mesa card to work with a HKD 5 AXIS MACH3 BOB.
Currently i can get mesa to drive the gecko drives and motors if I connect directly (Testing Purposes Only).
I cannot get the HKD BOB to drive the gecko drives and motors.

Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks,
Orrin

Do you have a link to the manual for the HKD breakout?

Also make sure you do not have cable power enabled on the 5I25.
