I _think_ that I have to stick with parallel port compatible pinout - that breakout board has optoisolators, so pins 1-9, 14,16, 17 can be used as outputs only, 10-13, 15 as inputs only. The machine is about 80 km from me and I do not have spare 5i25 to check, which pins are used for stepgen signals. I would gladly keep that breakout board just for sake of protecting 5i25 board... Is there any chance to convince you for a quick hack to adjust that g540 firmware to include also dir pin? It does not matter, on which particular parport pin it would go, I will rewire accordingly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
