Mine is on a shelf somewhere. I just don't recall where the shelf is. If
you _really_ need a Pluto-P. I can make an effort to look.

h, are there no unused pluto-p boards on the shelves?
I'm wondering.

As far as i know, the Pluto boards are no longer being made, and never worked
that well to start with.
Look at the Mesa 7i43 for a modern replacent.

Greetings!
Are there some fellows who have plut-p boards
and would sell it for a good price?
I'm in search of some.
My location is in europe.

I found an old thread on CNCzone that indicated that a LAVA PCI parallel

If you haven't already bought the pluto-p hardware, I recommend you
consider the various interface cards from http://mesanet.com/ or
http://pico-systems.com/motion.html instead -- they are better
constructed and have a better record of hardware compatability.
With that said, the documentation

Hi
I presume that the network card will be dedicated, as the parport is, and
only use a simple packet structure.. If one wants to connect to the
internet, then you'd use a seperate USB link or a second network card if
possible. That way there'll be no surprise jamming.

Friends,
I am looking for feedback from Pluto-P users...
I am working on a breakout board for the Pluto-P, more-or-less a daughter
board to bring the pins out to screw clamps with buffers or pull-ups where
needed.
I'd like to see a list of the pinout of the Pluto-P that you are currently
using
