Ok, I will of course do so, but will take a bit until I have access to the machine.
Question: there is also a 7i37 connected to the 7i80-  has the 7i37 be disconnected also? Guess so.

Yes I have that.

Sorry, for all the questions, but I'm having a bit of trouble with TWP and was hoping I could get some help. TCP is working totally fine and it seems like TWP is partially working, but not quite correctly. Say I issue G68.2 X0Y0Z0 I0J-45K0 and G53.1, the spindle orients itself correctly and I can jog in X and Y, but not Z. Depending on the angles I use I get different axes I can jog. Using G68.3 I can see the plane set in the vismach, but I'm not able to jog at all.

I did mess with the kinematics file to make it work for my machine. TCP works great, so it seems to be working (I added a tandem Y axis and a W axis that isn't involved in the tcp math). Is there anything I could have messed up in the kinematics file? Also, I had to scale some things in the vismach since I'm working in inches. Is there anything in the twp remap files that I would need to scale? Thanks again for all the help.

If you have the SyilX3 parallel port hal file, that can be used to figured out the pinout

In any case the pinout will be needed to determine which firmware to use.
 

Pictures?

Hello.
I had to recreate LC10 homing code from zero reading manual designated for a driver with a motor with incremental encoder . ( I thought original code was difficult to fix )

If you still have some problems, I consider to open my codes...( I have something to do for some improvement )
 

@tar_san - I very much would like to see your code.  I am not happy with my fixes to the original code.  Thank you!

I'm not sure who makes the drives on them I bought them already made. I had them working with mach3 but lost the recipe. I got the syilx3 machine running ok with linuxcnc but I would like to get the mesa board working. They both have proprietary break out boards on them.
