loading LinuxCNC on old smithy 1240

shouldn't be, unless there is a change in how it is turned on with new SW. if I install old drive with old SW, it will work. could it be a line we commented out in the hal?

I need to apologize, when I said it worked when I put the old drive / SW in, I made an assumption (I know). I forgot that I had added a power drawbar, I've been looking right at it, and forgot that after I installed it, I never actually ran the spindle. I need to mess with the interlock switch that is apparently wired incorrectly. I'm guessing the spindle will work once I fix that. I will get back in a bit

update, there is an issue with the interlock sw, With old SW I was able to disengage interlock sw and spindle would run. With new version, it doesn't run in either position. So I'm thinking it is somewhere in hal still

OK, so I jumped out the interlock, and spindle runs with old SW, but still not with new SW.

I ran halcmd again, with switch jumped out and gui up and system homed   smithy@debian:~$ halcmd show pin *8i20*

Is there maybe something here that needs changed?

# Spindle Contactor Enable
setp hm2_5i20.0.gpio.041.is_output TRUE
setp hm2_5i20.0.gpio.041.invert_output TRUE
# Door Closed - Energizes spindle contactor
net CLOSED hm2_5i20.0.gpio.029.in_not hm2_5i20.0.gpio.041.out

setp pid.0.maxoutput 30 did it. Spindle now runs.
Anything else to test before calling it good?
