It is unlikely that the 7i77 (or 7i97) will have enough I/O for such a machine. You will probably end up with a 7i84 to expand that.

A 7i73 for the user module also greatly simplifies the wirning between the cabinet and the control head.
 

I will strip and clean the existing horizontal one, and get it going. I realise that the industry switched to vertical turrets, and that they are a better form factor, but I already have a fair bit of tooling to suite the Schaublin horizontal.

Hello everyone, I had a lot of trouble to find a stable motion controller. First I bought an EC500 and i was trying to run with mach3. It was horrible. So i bought a 2nd card XHC (if i remember well) also wanted to run with mach3 but was still not good. Was better already. After a lot of people suggested me to try linuxcnc. So i sent the XHC motion controller back and currently im struggling with my old motion controller (ec500).The prozessor is an rt1052 and i found a firmware from github (remora from scottalford75).I changed the firmware. Im trying to adjusting the settings with the .ini and .hal files. I was able to move the motors and use home switches. My problem is now that if I jog with my keyboard and after i dont press anything sometimes the motors still do 1 or 2 steps. And i cant figure out why. Maybe someone has the same motion controller with linuxcnc or could help me?Thank you
