Right, so the spindle stepgen should be deleted from the setup

When you get 3.98V, what is the spindle speed set to?

Printing the results of

halcmd show all spindle > spindle.txt might help debug further

removed the spindle stuff from the conf

here's what I get when the spindle is running and 3.98v is seen on the VFD

Looks like you selected the "use +-10 for direction" spindle option in pncconf:

float          -301  spindle-vel-cmd-rpm
                         ==> pid.s.command
                         <== spindle.0.speed-out

 This does not work because the 7I76 spindle interface expects only unsigned (positive) values


A quick fix is to replace

net spindle-vel-cmd-rpm     => pid.s.command

with

net spindle-vel-cmd-rpm-abs     => pid.s.command

made the change and went back to the config wizard and tried a couple other settings, but it still gets the same behavior:

Is the output voltage 0 (or close to 0) when LinuxCNC is not running?

It is yes, but I can double check later. I might try just setting up a whole new config and see if I can get that working with a fresh start as well.

Actually it is not 0 it is 3.98v even when the spindle is not engaged in linuxcnc

That sounds like the analog TB4 pins are not connected properly
to the three VFD pins:

SPIN+ --> VFD 5VOUT
SPINOUT --> VFD 5VIN
SPIN- --> VFD GND

it looks like they are connected this way

5VOUT --> SPIN+
GND --> SPIN-
5VIN --> SPINOUT

just to be clear these are the right pins in the picture correct. currently getting zero volts on the + and - pins and ground

well 5v on 5v out on the VFD
