OH MY GOD! SORRY! You are using the wrong diagnostic program.
I'm sorry about the confusion, I sell 3 different interface systems, PPMC,
USC and UPC. They all use the same driver in LinuxCNC, but they are
different products. To keep things simple, there are specific test programs
for each system. The above report is FINE - the wrong program
detects the board correctly (55 is the ID code for a UPC board with
rev 5 firmware)! It just doesn't know what it is, because it is NOT
a member of the PPMC board set.

You should be using the univpwm diagnostic with a universal PWM
controller board. Get it from here :
jelinux.pico-systems.com/codes/univpwmdiags.tgz

unpack with tar xzvf univpwmdiags.tgz
and run it like this :
sudo ./univpwmdiags d010 bus

The reason the commtest function worked without error is that the
encoder section of all three systems is identical, so the diagnostics
could perform properly on that test, even though you were using the wrong
diagnostic program.

I again apologize for the confusion!
