The HAL file is correct. The PNCCONF utility will load the Mesa card
drivers as it does.
What you are wanting to do is load an extra parallel port. This is not
the same as the 7i43 card but rather a parport. You should add to your
HAL file the following stuff.
Have a look at this
If it is the case then it's confirmed that PNCConf has a bug because it
should generate this kind of configuration when a non default address is
specified for the parallel port.
Matthieu.
Yes this is a confirmed bug.

Hi,
I configured a mesa 5i25 with prob_rfx2 firmware with pncconf and the
xml files found here
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.user/33697
In pncconf, that works fine, I can hit the test/tune button to run tests
on each axis. The movement is smooth and fast.
After
This is one of the things on the high priority list for the VMC here to
me. I can really see that it would be nice to have and setting up jobs
would be that much easier. My waterproof and debris proof keyboard is great
but one of those would come in real handy. Interested to see what you guys
go

Is there a way to find out which exact parameters pncconf is using when
it launches the tuning applet ?
Looking at the source code pncconf actually sets maxacc and maxvel to 0
during the test. but that should make the test possibly worse not better.

I tried also with 25% more on stepgen_maxvel and maxaccel. Not better.
I checked the enable, it works fine. Pncconf was generating a different

Hi Matthieu
My next suggestion would have been to see if the port works but you have
done that now.
I suggest that you email Peter Wallace at Mesa directly. He might be
able to help better.
