Well after some struggling yesterday we can summarize it with, that the magic smoke escaped the7i90HD card because i possibly grounded it wrong and i assume i killed the 7i48 card as well in the process. The Argon driver survived tho, and driving it around on the Simplemotion interface works fla

Well that would be one solution i guess. Just wiring both of em to the mesa card wouldnt work im guessing here.. They are normall closed and should have 5V signal at all times for "enable".. and guessing when you hit a limit switch you need to signal that back thru an input card and tell linux cn

A hack: look at their picture http://granitedevices.com/w/images/thumb/6/60/J5switches.png/500px-J5switches.png isolate the 2 limit switches add a relay contact between 5 V and this new subnet your new invented 'enable' will _allow_ the limits to operate else the drive thinks you are simultaneoul

So i got this Mesa 7i48 analog servo card, a 15pin differential encoder, and the argon driver. Make notice i have no clue what im doing, so i made this chart and just connect the pins together basicly with a color chart. The Argon uses a 24V@0.4A DC input, and the mesa card uses 5V - but i nee
