Another question about Pokeys setup.  I have a hall effect sensor that is used to measure my spindle RPM.  It works great when connected to pin 13 of my BOB.  I connected it to pin 3 of my Pokeys and set that pin as a digital input.  I then set the spindle index as port 10 pin 3 of my ports and pins setup screen.  It does not read RPM in this configuration.  Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

USB and paralel ports are not working in same way.
To measure speed over USB, there should be some kind of counter implemented and sent value to Mach via plugin.
That is not implemented.
