Hello,
I've spent a few days getting Linuxcnc 2.9.7 up and running with a Mesa 5i25 board, properly flashed and functioning.
My hardware setup consists of 2no X-axis gecko 203V drives, 1no Y - axis, 1no Z-axis, and 1no A-axis.
I have x,y,z home switches, e-stop, and Highspeed Spindle.

I have been trying to get the mesa card to work with a HKD 5 AXIS MACH3 BOB.
Currently i can get mesa to drive the gecko drives and motors if I connect directly (Testing Purposes Only).
I cannot get the HKD BOB to drive the gecko drives and motors.

Does anyone have suggestions?

Thanks,
Orrin

Do you have a link to the manual for the HKD breakout?

Also make sure you do not have cable power enabled on the 5I25.

Did you verify that  the BOB has 5V power?
It needs both 5 and 12V power for operation,
5V for the step/dir outputs and 12V for the analog out and digital inputs
