So here's the photo with the Pi4 1GB running LinuxCNC.  The 4 roller switches 
are the three homes and the shared limit for the other axis.  Normally there 
would be 3 in series.  The orange paddle switch is estop.  The cable to these 
switches goes to the 7i92H P2.DB25.

On the P1 connector I have the Probotix BoB.  No isolation needed for testing 
so it's powered from the same supply on both sides.  I have the scope on Pins 
2,3 of what would be the second DB25.  

Now if I plug a motor into the step/dir outputs of the BoB it should spin the 
motor based on requested spindle RPM.

Been a good day.
