34 outputs. Don't forget the second port header.

I don't know if they come with any documentation. Mine never have.
Just google for "5i25man" and you will find the manual. This

Why the 5i25?
I have the 7i92, I like the ethernet. It allows me to put the card in the
control box without a mass of critical cabling between the PC and the drives.
Ethernet doesn't have much for length limitations.

I have not yet bought a 5i25 card. So my question might be answered in

Can this card be used as a general purpose FPGA development card? Is the
process well documented some place? If so then this card can be used for
almost any purpose, for example I could

Gene;
See the attached pdf I made.
This is the pinouts as I read them from the ebay display images. It doesn't
answer everything and I think you will want to use the B axis for spindle
control since this BoB only provides for On/Off but no direction. Another
oddity if I read things correctly
If this shows up a bunch of times, it's Yahoo Mail's fault.

That looks like a board I would not recommend look close to the white
sockets near the axis outputs, it has series resistors for the driver
optos, these of course are in the driver as well, this means half
current through the opto and failure to work.
I was working with a free issue board where I

Old auctions stay around on eBay for quite a while if you search by number.

Mesaflash allows you to change the IO configuration, but only to a number of
premade configs, not arbitrary. The GPIO has few limits but the location of
special-purpose STEPx/DIRx pairs are fixed. But those locations change based on
the mesaflash file you use.
