Hi JT, how are you? Here on my 2.9.2 it appears, I made a short video showing it, attached to the post.
 

Hmm, I can't seem to open a .rar file here perhaps a screen shot?

Of course, I attached two prints...

I see that now, thanks for clarifying that for me... looks like someone has been working on the Stepconf tool.

Looks like Phil added tandem joints about 3 years ago to the 2.9 branch.

Yes, from what I understand by looking at the posts here on the forum, these options were first found in Pnfconf and then went to Stepconf as well.
 Here on the forum there are some topics about an ethernet card with ESP32 that is being tested/developed in open source to be able to use linuxcnc on PCs that no longer have a parallel port, suddenly in future Stepconf updates, they end up including the Esp32 option when all has already been developed/tested and published in the topic, it would also be of great help.

Hmmm interesting, so if I didn't understand it wrong, the 'tandem function' is only really implemented in stepconf and in the files generated by it from version 2.9.* onwards....

That's correct, I changed to the 2.8 branch to see and the tandem function is not in that branch.
