I think you can probably use a 7i37-TA, but it will need to be wired differently.
But a repair might well be possible.

You mean, that you didn`t tune your Servos at all?
In my world a Servo need to be tuned connected to the machine and the load it has to work with to work properly and performant.

Why a user entry for a float value would be passed through all of that, I have no idea.

That part I can explain. Axis allows you to enter any valid G-code expression (apparently including parameters) in the numeric entry box. 

I have used it for simple things like 1234.5 / 2 but it also allows functions like SIN / COS / PI (?) and from looking at the code I think you can probably use the numeric parameters in the .vars file. 

So, in this case the error seems to be caused by not finding the PARAMETER_FILE. 

OP: does that entry appear in your INI? And does the referenced file exist? (and who does it belong to?)

HAHA
Thank you!
I spent so much time on this, I had forgotten to hook that up. Still strange that the LEDs worked after connecting 4 switches. Anyhow. I can finish this now.

Nevermind, I have changed the JTAG programmer to USB Blaster and everything went fine.

My board responds to pings, but seems to drop 50% of the packets, is this normal?

I generally keep signal & power separate (I include the wires for the stepper coils power).

Even then unknown I don't expect things to get better with the next administrations.

You can thank the UK gumbernment and my own pseudo socialist gumbernment. It's embarrassing to be an Aussie at the moment and we have 3 more years of the fools.
