Stuck configuring 5i25 to run G540

Are the motors energized? i.e. can you turn the shafts by hand or not?
Have you connected the step/dir signals correctly?

I notice you said you used 5i25x2 in pncconf which is not possible.
Did you mean G540x2? details like this can be very important.

its always available in a G540x2 configuration
(since it has no alternate function in that configuration)

I do see that GPIO16 is connected to parallel pin 13, but it's the only switch not working. And if you check the halhmid dump I attached, it's the only GPIO OF 13-16 (DB 10-13) that says "None" and doesn't work. Does the "NONE" indicate that no function is set in that bitfile? It just seemed like an odd correlation.

Yes, the motor drivers are on and they have detent. I'm not %100 sure I have the signals set up correctly, but I do have *an* axis on each Stepgen, so it should be moving even if the axis assignment is wrong. Right? I do have my Hal attached at the top.

Yes, I meant g540x2, that was a typo. Thanks

can you post the INI file too please
