I don't think so but I am trying now. I tested the vfd first taking PCWs
advice and just put a pot on the anolog input and buttons to switch between
LI1 and +24 in the vfd for forward rotation.

reverse rotation was just switching between LI2 and +24.

Is it possible to just change the hal a bit and use it as is?

I am using linuxcnc 2.8 and linuxmint

any ideas would be great.  also any way to check the state of the enable
and direction spindle outputs would be nice to see what i am actually
getting currently.

regards

Andrew
