[Emc-users] Preferred sensors for Mesa cards, NPN or PNP?

I am going to shopaholic a bunch of proximity sensors to replace mechanical homing and limit switches for two machines with Mesa cards (5i25/7i77) and then it struck me, what is the best option? NPN or PNP? How do they behave if there's no power to them or if they fail? For example a PNP NO, is it

[Emc-users] Pncconf does not include 5i25

I had a moment of brightness and decided to test Pncconf in 2.6.0 pre, and got surprised to see that 5i25 was not selectable. How come? On this particular machine there is only a 5i25, no extra cards, so it is probably a simple manual config. It seems (to me at least) a bit strange to not find

Re: [Emc-users] Pncconf does not include 5i25
