I’ve got an issue. I have a 7i95T board and Pico Systems brushless DC drivers that take PWM input. I assume I need a new firmware to convert all step/dir to PWM? Can anyone help me?  Additionally, I assume this won’t interfere with the 2 serial ports?

Thanks! Greatly appreciated! I assume I can use a SPINx1 on one of those PWM/dir channels?

Sorry to bother you some more. I happen to have a ton of cards I bought years ago lying around. Do you think a better solution might be a 7i80hd-25, use a 7i52s configured for 6x PWM output and 6 encoder inputs (only using 3 of each for now). I have a 7i44 and multiple input/output card options.

It would be about the same, but you would likely need to add 
some additional I/O cards for general purpose inputs and outputs.
(that are built in on the the 7I95T)
