I'm pretty sure I mentioned a number of times that I'm running the 7i92_C11Gx2D.pin file and just wanted the P2 connector DB-25 Pin 14 swapped with Pin 16. Nothing on P1. Unfortunately the 7i92_pmdx126.pin for some strange reason has step and direction reversed from the convention of step on DB-25 Pin 2 and Dir on DB-25 pin 3. Wasn't till I'd loaded in the new .bit file an cycled power that I realized it was the opposite. Now I know I could go down into the machine and rewire it. Then go to my machine drawings and change all the pin numbers and labels. Then load WIN-XP and reconfigure (just using simple windows and check boxes) to swap all the step/dir signals. But then the documentation in the pin file no longer matches logically what the pin does. Code or documentation that says "Yes, it states that pin is step but it's really direction" is just plain silly. There's nothing here that suggests I can swap the signals like Andy suggested for PWM. http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man9/hostmot2.9.html#stepgen So I'm back to requesting a copy of 7i92_C11Gx2D.pin file with only the P2 port DB-25 pin 14 set to none and pin 16 set to PWM. Port P1 can be left as is. That strikes me as far less work than swapping all the step/dir signals in the PMD126 pin file. Please?
