Yes, you can contact Mesa directly,
I asked specifically about switching the DC side of the field power because
if the card is repaired/replaced, if you switch the DC Field power, the
repaired/replaced card will be damaged as well.
(BTW do not apply fieldpower to the damaged 7I76E avoid further damage)

Me too. I ended up buying 10 of them to keep up with the smoke signals!
With the 7i76e, there was no way it was powered up until it was fully mounted though

I smoked my 7i76e today
I have destroyed a few arduinos because I did not have spacers under the boards and I put them down on something metal bridging contacts.

Update: Thcad300 arrived yesterday! Unfortunately no information from Mesa if the replacement 7i76e card as promised is on it's way... ![:S :S](/media/kunena/emoticons/dizzy.png)
Got time to read Hal and see Youtube Videos from Swolebro with lots of great Linuxcnc Info!
All the best!

does the tool coordinate system differ when you setup 1 or 2 ??
I have a problem understanding machine coordinates and tool coordinates..
I thought tool coordinates change from + to - and Gcodes then as well ...
