ok now it gets into the real substance. page 4 io1
Im not sure how these numbers corrospond to the physical pins on the pcba. that would help me with assignments
is I/O1 the first connector in the TB2 row or is this the parallel port pins?

screen 4 7i76e tb4
analog output
seems like it doesn't have enough pins, the plug has 8 pins. how do these match up, do I need to add the other pins in somehow or is it a manual edit in the file later? tb4 connector has the vfd control
also all of the stepper motors connections are on tb2 and tb3 but there is no tb2 or 3 tab. spindle encoder is on tb3 as well.

dont really understand this yet but moving on. One good thing is the HAL file generated works fine with the Ethernet mesa 7i76e by only changing the ip address in the HAL file to 10.10.10.10
next page is screen 5
I only changed the stepper scale (guess for now)

The PnCConf "Pins" are HAL pins, there is not necessarily a 1:1 correspondence with physical terminals on the 7i76 board.
So , there are 3 physical pins for the analogue output (+, - and out) but only one HAL pin, and 2 physical pins but only one HAL pin for enable-out and dir-out.
In the case of the analogue output tab, all you can actually so is set it to "unused" or "spindle" so there isn't really much of a decision to be made.

and related screen 6
machine zero for me will be the farthest extents from the spindle, not sure if these values here should be moved to different fields or the actual values to fill into the fields
