The pin assignment for hardware functions like PWM, encoders, stepgens, etc is hardwired in the FPGA configuration. (you can read the .pin file to see the pinout for a specific configuration) dmesg also lists the current configurations pinout or run mesaflash: sudo mesaflash --device 5i25 --readhmid to read your current configurations pinout Here's the latest mesaflash source: https://github.com/micges/mesaflash/archive/master.zip > > Cheers, Gene Heskett > -- > "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: > soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
