Yes. There is a slide switch on the faceplate of the G540 to enable/disable
the charge pump input.

The gecko will happily work
Hi,
I have seen a bunch of info on using BBB with capes and a lot of 3D
printing specific stuff like Replicape and BeBoPr++.
My thought was can the BBB replace the PC in LinuxCNC and drive the G540

Thanks for looking.
Cheers
Richard
