Getting closer (I think).
Cleaned the device and now it seems to work. Wired it up to the the mill for a test(not installed). The green light on the hardware page responds with on and off. The same does the red status LED on the BOB (G11G Multifunction CNC board Rev. 9 from CNC4pc).- but Mach3 vil not show the REW, the display just flicks wildly even if no a speed is called for.
For ref. my setup is:  Windows 10, Mach3, Smooth Stepper ver. 1.2,  BOB as above and the mill is a SIEG KX3 CNC Mill

Can some tell me why the rev. counter in Mach3 doesn't register the RPM even as the signal is showing up in the hardware page? (Index botten get activated - on and off).
The optho switch is working nice thanks to MN300 and is giving .6 volt and 4.7 volt when reflected and non reflected.

Thanks TPS your reply, but it bid not help, no indications of RPM on the screen. The green index light on the Mach3 screen is active and also a red LED light on the BOB indicating that the input signal is active.

Yes, the SS is original but quite old, and yes the pulley selected and ratio is 4.
I am using port 11 on the BOB witch should be ok?
