Greetings all; Those breakout boards I bought 2 of arrived today, and are apparently pin assigned according to what a mach3 system might use, including the male db25 on the pcb. It apparently has pre-assigned output pin groups that are about as incompatible with a 5i25 as could be. I never did find where the X axis for my lathe comes out, but the Z is apparently in the B group of 4. I ran the spindle, expecting to see the analog of the pwm someplace, but if its there, it is routed to the db15 on the other end of the card. So I go to look at the pdf of the board thats on the mini cd-r, and found it, and a .doc file, both of which are password protected. Its not that much money, and it would cost thru the nose to put a stop payment on it, but I am tempted anyway. What a maroon!
The board is this one. <http:///ebay_order.html?param=ab562ace2e55b25232b5b0343553d251cacc4d07f20cc1c0c4c0dc182854920714f1f1b6b4303135b734363275f603a92bce078a8606039949992940667a6a5eaaa1a5b149716a727e1150b418a4ab24233537bf34af243133af38bb12285aa66465540b00> Anybody recognize it, or has used it? Better yet, knows how to unlock the pdf? Nothing I have here, including libreoffice, can touch the pdf or the .doc files for the card. All sorts of adv stuff for his driver boxes, you can look at them, but nothing on the card itself. I'd love to be able to buy about a 6 pack of cnc4pc's old C1G BoB's, as it has an led for state on every pin, a great troubleshooting tool. But its been disco'd. Even at 80 plus bucks it was a good card. Thanks all, for any help on this. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
