no
Take any 5i23 sample config, but in INI file change the name of card and remove the part of the "config" line, which tells the path to firmware to be loaded. I just guess that LinuxCNC / Hostmot2 firmware still might find the card and work with it.
I ordered the card with PROB_RFX2 firmware to drive a probotix controller I am not 100% sure but I thought I would only need to change the addresss in my ini file But if it does not show up i do not know the address, right Peter Wallace at mesa thinks it may be incompatable or faulty motherboard I am just throwing it out there for the crowd before it goes in the box of good ideas that did not work Richard
