General Mach Discussion / Re: Another 2nd parallel port question
« on: October 12, 2011, 03:24:01 PM »
Thanks Tweakie.
I looked at that link you posted several times before starting a new thread.
Every available address has been done.
It could be that the pendant is bad or the c22 board, but I don't want to send parts back without being able to test them.
Maybe someone else will chime in with the same problem and the same Break out board & stuff.
With the pmdx board set on normal mode it leaves the maximum amount of usable pins for the 2nd parallel port.
Does the C-22 board & brain take in all of the info from the pendant and decide what goes where, like a Modio or modbus?
My pendant has like 21 wires in it, and they can't all be functioning through the few available pins at once.
< (Overlook my stupidity on this. I have never really studied the modbus or modio).
Thanks for everyone's help,
JAckal
