I just took a look at your web site. I like it much better than the Mesa site.

I did not know that the 7i92 existed. There are a lot of places that I could have used that in the past.

In an ideal world, I would like to use the 7i92 and connect it to the existing parallel breakout that came with the hardware. I have a few specific questions
  • Do you know for sure that it works with LinuxCNC?
  • I am slowly accumulating parts for a "delta" style 3D printer. It should interface to LinuxCNC for that as well, correct?
  • Is there a pointer on the web about how to get LinuxCNC to talk to the board?
  • What firmware do I need to flavor it as a "normal" parallel port?

Thanks very much. I expect we will be doing some business pretty soon.

Yes, just click on the Links at the bottom of my web site and there is a 7i92 guide. Probably the 7i92_G540x2D.bit would work. I only sell Mesa products that work with LinuxCNC as a service to the LinuxCNC community.

Edit: Both output headers on all flavors of 7i92 are the same pinout as a parallel port, the bit files will change as the breakout boards or daughter cards change.
