You have :
num_encoders=4
but only 3 available so change that to
num_encoders=3

I had time this morning to test and after correcting a couple of bit file mismatches it loaded right up and seems to work fine .

I do not see anything that would prevent it from working.

Occasionaly I see this in the status line.

14:54:01 | hm2: Firmware contains unknown function (gtag-195)

But so far it has not effecting teh running of PP that I can see

Thanks very much for setting up and trying this both of you. So it looks like the 7i96 is looking good for PP - I better ask Santa to bring me one for christmas
