The 5i23 in the G540 configuration emulates the parallel port pinout that suits a G540. What this means is that the stepgen pins are in the right place, for a G650 and can't be moved. (general purpose IO can be re-mapped in HAL.) Check the Gecko docs to see if that pinout suits you. I would suspect not. Bear in mind that the 5i25 has a second header, with another 25 pins, which can be any gpio or hostmot2 function. What pinout do you want? As well as parport emulation, the 5i25 can connect to a variety of semi-smart cards, for a lot more IO and/or things like analogue spindle control for a VFD. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
