But now I need a 2nd pwmgen, which with the other 5i25_7i76_1px2d.bit file installed comes out where stepgen4 would be. But there is no dir from the 2nd one on p2 with that bit file installed. So I'm screwed either way, Can you fix the 5i25_7i76_1px2d.bit to make it work with 2 active, independent pwmgen's? Or, since that bit file is old, has it been fixed? But that file does not exist in the latest 5i25.zip. If you can take that old file and make the 2nd pwmgen on p2 work, that would be the simplest fix for me. A pair of complementary dir's would be the icing on the cake. That would allow it to control a full H bridge.
