Narrow it down a bit
halcmd show pin|grep 7i76 gets me back up out of 20k of noise, but 
doesn't show the spindle conversion stuffs.


And in the case of the G0704, shows that I haven't installed the last 
5i25 file you sent me, no pwmgen.1. on P2.  And this is the machine I 
need it on. The box running the 6040 has it, but it didn't work, that 
POS VFD needs a pwm that swings 10 volts, but the 7i76 can do its ten 
volts as an analog pot, so I put that file in the wrong machine.  Can I 
blame it on oldtimers? Best excuse I can think of when its only 9F out. 
Brrrrr.

So it looks like I can start wiring the rest of this first box. Starting 
with the steppers. I bought a bag of 5 pin connectors so the first 4 all 
get wired alike. Then reprogram the 5i25 to get the pwmgen back as a 
pulse train, so that one going to the spindle will be a mix-n-match as 
I'll need the field i/o's 12 volts for that, so I wind up feeding both 
pwmgens the same enables etc.

Then I have switches on the heads gearshift knob, useing on pin of that 
plug for a probe, and 3 home switches that will tie up the next two of 
those 5 pin sockets, and the 8th one will be the encoder feedback. 
Leaving one more to run a future tool changer with on each machine. But 
thats on down the road yet, out of sight ATM.  Oh wait. I forgot the 
soft start sigs for the spindle power, timing the charge time for all 
those microfarads it its supply, a hard switch trips a 30 amp breaker.

Thank you Peter.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
