What firmwares do you have available? You need one with both "SV" (for servo, to get an encoder for the TGCAD) and "ST" (for Stepper) in the name.

Contains the correct bitfile (8 stepgens, 2 PWM gens and 2 "A" pin only encoders on I/O 0..23)
The one in the dist is broken, will fix tomorrow

Question
How long Z axis movement is needed for plasma?
I have one linear unit taken out from some kind of dispensing unit with 60mm stroke.
