General Mach Discussion / Re: port 2 pin 2-9 as inputs

Hi,
The Search function is currently off-line but should return once the webmaster finds and replaces the missing / moved file.
As far as the Mach3 Parallel Port is concerned Pins 1-9 are always Outputs - they cannot be changed to Inputs.
Some, if not all, External Motion Controllers (such as the Warp9 ESS) will allow Pins 1-9 of Port 2 to be configured as Inputs so if that's what you need then consider changing from the Parallel Port to a Motion Controller.
