if you are using a real parallel port you have to use win7/32bit or below.
are you using a real PP ?

until the step/dir leds don't Change state i think there is nothing commeing from PP

is the port adress set correctly?

you can not configurate this.

you have to use a brain, or macropump for this.

for me the Jumper Settings on the pmdx look ok.
i assume you have checked the alt pwr in ?
what stepper Drivers do you use?
what are the led's (step/dir) doing if you try to jog?
you have a real parallel port , not a emulated one ?
you are using win7/32bit ?

ok i assume you are using the Standard 1024 screenset.

-wire your Limit Switches
-set them up in port's&pin's (active low or high does not matter)
-goto diagnostic page
-press your Limit Switches manualy
-have a look to the Screen, what is going on

As Craig said,

you can have the look of a 840D (by creating your own screenset),
but never the functionality of it.

attached a part of the Manual for the wiring,
you can select the mode via paramater.
