I need 4 axises.
Also all my limit switches are in series and go into one input.

Eric, thank you for your detail explanation!
I happened to have a USB from Jon Elson, so I may as well start using
it, though my application
can work just fine with just a parport in an output mode.
Ideally I would like to have already made configuration for a parport
which I could just apply without
learning how to use HAL. I think many people would like the same thing
unless once really like meet and
overcome challenges. In my case I just want to make the machine to work.
In that case, look at the drawing at
http://jelinux.pico-systems.com/images/uscgecko.pdf
for the electrical connections.
The file emc2/configs/univstep/univstep_io.hal has all the assignments
to correspond to
that drawing. All the files in emc2/configs/univstep are a set that are
preconfigured for
a 4-axis system using the Universal Stepper Controller. These files
should be in any
EMC2 system created since this spring, although later versions of EMC2
have all sorts of
improvements.
