Chris-

Also as this thread has gone somewhat far afield, and you have added the 7i93 and other cards to pncconf (thanks!), I did want to try and wrap up the original question of how to add a new card to pncconf. I've taken a swipe at answering that for myself in this PR:

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/pull/648

which might expose some of my ignorance of the whole process, but I am hoping it can take some of the burden of maintaining cards and firmware configs off of you and enable others to do so. If you could review and let me know where I've gotten it wrong I would greatly appreciate it.

Then I think we can close this thread down :-).

Thanks again,

Scott

I should add, if you want to ignore this documentation feel free. Having it would introduce some mental coupling to the way things are currently done, and if you are planning to do additional restructures then maintaining this documentation would actually add more work. I definitely appreciate that aspect of it and won't be offended if that is the case.

I have a 7i90hd card, and I want to set a project using pccconf.
However the 7i90hd card is not in the list.

Do anyone knows which card should I select?

Yes, I use the 7i90HD card in EPP mode.
And I connect it to the only parallel port of my computer.

The linuxcnc version is 2.7.14.
