mesaCT, 7i95t and SPINx

Hello,I'm new to LinuxCNC and come from an electronics background, with good familiarity in C. I installed the MesaCT tool and managed to get the three steppers for XYZ working. However, in the spindle tab of the tool, I can't select anything; all buttons are greyed out. I would like to connect the SPINx to channel 5, where I assume the PWM signal is. What settings do I need to adjust in MesaCT to implement this? Writing the .hal file still confuses me a bit. Does anyone have a sample configuration, or can anyone advise what settings I need to adjust in MesaCT to get the spindle running?
Best regards, Jörg 
Edit:
  On channel 5, the Dir signal switches with the change of direction, but I don't have a PWM output on Step. I have attached the configuration.Best regards, Jörg

Problem has been resolved. Here are the parts from the INI and HAL:

TYPE = pwm
PWM_TYPE = 1
PWM_FREQUENCY = 5000
SCALE = 24000



#### HAL

Hi Jorg,

How did you go about solving the issue? I am experiencing the same problem.

Thank you,
Sean

Your configuration files helped me. I suffered with this problem for 2 weeks.

If you haven't solved your question, I can try to help.

Hello,All my issues are resolved. The spindle is running, and the end stops and stepper motors are also functioning. For those looking for an example, I have attached the files.
