OK i installed the pokeys software V1.8 and i can configure any pin i like. then send the config pins to the board. Of course i manage it but if configure a pin as input and click the key mapping window asigning a keyboard key to this input pin then mach3 recognizes it when i short this input to ground.
i reseted the board "pin 54 to ground and connect the usb cable" reconfigured a only one pin input and don`t work.

OK just looked in the latest control panel, you asign the pin as an input, you then make sure that None is clicked for the mapping and then save to device. You should now be able to shut down and open Mach and see the pin toggle in the PokeyDiags page.
 You actually dont even need to set it up for inputs, the reason I said to is just in case it was set for some other form of input or output etc and that would have overwritten it.
 If you have done that and it doesnt work then maybe you need to get in touch with Borisz.

No don`t work..
Hood are you running the last version? if negative can you send me the version you are running?
i can see how the pin status change in pokeys software but never in Mach3 i think is possible software failure because under pokeys software control all is OK.

I think I am using the latest firmware, software band plugin but will have to wait until I get home this evening to check for sure as the Pokeys is at home.

I have just looked, Ver 2.61 of the plugin, ver 1.7 of the firmware
 Have you made sure you have the device set as Device 0, if you go to Tools in the Pokeys control and then show device details you can make sure its set as User ID 0, if not change to 0 and press change ID.

Just tried your xml here and it works fine with my PoKeys, I first looked at the Pokeys Diags page and shorted out the first 8 inputs and they all showed as working. Next I looked at Mach Diag page and X Home was lit, shorted Pokeys to ground and it went out so that  is working as well.
 Next thing you might want to do is save your PoKey config and attach it and I will load it to my PoKeys and see if it works.

Hi, are there any updates yet about the analog inputs?  What's the status?
