How to Install LinuxCNC?

Today I have updated to the last 2.9.0 ..... pre1.53... (MESA 7i96s)
With the PncConf made a Lathe configuration, but the stepgen2 on the spindle rotates only in one direction. In other direction the Spindle-Enable not activates the ssr. (and maxvel is too big for it 10 000 pulses per rev - will try later the electronic gears in the servo-drive )
What can be the problem? 

Here are the configs. 

(I can't open the .rar file)

What are the HAL connections to the spindle-enable?

The PNCConf made the configuration...

The HAL looks OK. can you use halmeter to look at spindle.0.on and see if that is set true for both directions?
Then look at the spindle-vel-cmd-rps signal and make sure that is non-zero in reverse?

Tomorrow I will try

So, in revers direction no reactions on any pins...
What should I do, to make it work?

Made a config on a 2.8.4 version (for MESA 7i96s) and copied to the 2.9.0......
The same issue. Using step/dir for spindle.
On the 2.8.4 version - unknown stepgen MD..... MESA 7i96s driver, or board something...

This is rather odd.
Can you check the stepgen.2.enable and velocity-command to make sure that is getting through?

I am wondering if there is a setting in the drive that is disallowing clockwise motion.

Nothing

Press the button some more? In the screenshots you seem to be commanding 0.016666 rps (1 rpm) and that is probably slower than the spindle can run.
