02:25 PM Tom_L: cool
04:01 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> @ JT, so the 5v+ pins for the stepgens on the 7c80 are NOT switchable... (I don't understand why, but whatever). I am still working with Peter, as they should be outputting 5v, but aren't.
04:03 PM lcnc-relay: <ccatlett1984@> so, looks like i'm going to need to use 1(or more) of the isolated outputs on the card, for the enable signal(s). Debating on if i "need" the ability to enable/disable individual axes.
04:22 PM JT-Shop: usually one enable for all axes and one for spindle
