Picked up a CNC Mill. It's a Grizzly G0704 conversion. I switched out the board on it because it had the smooth stepper setup for Mach 3.
I have a C41 Variable Speed Control board, and Kelling KL-5056D controllers for X, Y, and Z.
I switched out to a CNC4PC C10 board and got rid of the smoothstepper because I would rather have LinuxCNC.
Here's what I've got wired on the C10:

So I need to know is this wiring setup should work ok?
And if so, I need to go through the step config wizard.
I've figured out that my driver timing settings are:
Step Time- 1200NS
Step Space- 1200NS
Direction Hold- 5000NS
Direction Setup- 5000NS
I'm assuming that I would select single paralell port with this?
When I go to the PARA PORT 1 SETUP it automatically assigns "ESTOP OUT" to Pin1. Should I move the wire from Pin 10 to Pin 1 for this?
I'm new to all of this, so I apologize for the stupid questions. I just want to get this mill working finally. I'm comfortable with the operation side of this thing, but the wiring and hardware side is a bit of a loss to me.
I also just ordered a controller PC and electronics from CandCNC for my 5x10 plasma and am using LinuxCNC on that, so I'm excited to get used to this software again. A friend had it on his old mill, and I used it a bit and really liked it.
