Many thanks!!

Is the 7i77 connected? Are you sure that the DB25 cable is a good one, fully wired, and not a cheaper "printer cable"?

Most probably the 7i77 is working and found by LinuxCNC, but something is amiss with the scaling, also probably missing in the ini file.
I had this error before, so to do a quick check, just omit that line in hal for now.
With no power to the 7i77 it will complain about not finding analogout0 with no "scalemax" in the line.

tommylight & andypugh, Many, many thanks for your help. Is there a way to, or I may be thinking of something else. Is it "Re" or another way to leave the line in and have it not recognized?

Please remember, TB-5 (Pins 1 & 2) and A-M-C SW-1 (Pins that will be used are 2 (Signal GND) & 9 (Inhibit/Enable)) on the driver are not connected. These pins are the pins that make it move, but unsure of their proper final location. A-M-C's engineer will be returning soon. As I recall, a check of some kind is needed to know the exact final diagram.

DB25 cable; the cable I am using is the same cable from the "back EMF" system, have not changed it.

Many thanks for all the help & support!!

Many thanks, I found that line only 1 place & use # in front of it, but a similar error code, see attachment. Included is a copy of .ini file with #.

thanks!!
