Hi Ray,

         Glad to be here. Thank you for the fast reply.

         I can get classic ladder to come up in demo_step_cl and 
demo_sim_cl. I guess my question is more about the configuration files for 
Motenc card. When I look at the moten_io file it reads:

# Just uncomment the following line if you want a Software PLC
#loadusr -w classicladder --nogui ../configs/common/bridgeport.clp

So I edit it to read:

# Just uncomment the following line if you want a Software PLC
loadusr -w classicladder --nogui ../configs/common/bridgeport.clp

But I still don't get the classic ladder interface.......What am I doing 
wrong?

               Thanks,
                    Dave
