I'm not sure what you mean by the "number of physical inputs" parameter. I don't have a motenc board and it's been a long time since I worked on the one at the CNC Workshop. But the relevant documentation is here: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html//hal_drivers.html#r1_6 and it doesn't show any parameters at driver load time. You say "I get an error and EMC no longer loads". Please post the exact error message(s). (rant) Whenever you are looking for help with some error, please post the exact text of the error message. If you are running EMC from an icon, don't. Open a terminal window and start it from the terminal - you are much more likely to see important troubleshooting messages that way. Icons are fine _after_ you have everything working the way you like it. (end rant) Once we know exactly what you are doing and what EMC is doing in response, we can probably help.
