Hello,

am an newbie to Linux CNC, my normal "world" is klipper and reprap ;.)

If i am using the configurator for an mesa 7i76e i am getting for example the follwing Step gen entry in the hal
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.dirsetup        [JOINT_0]DIRSETUP
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.dirhold         [JOINT_0]DIRHOLD
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.steplen         [JOINT_0]STEPLEN
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.stepspace       [JOINT_0]STEPSPACE
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.position-scale  [JOINT_0]STEP_SCALE
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.step_type        0
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.control-type     1
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.maxaccel         [JOINT_0]STEPGEN_MAXACCEL
setp   [HMOT](CARD0).stepgen.00.maxvel           [JOINT_0]STEPGEN_MAXVEL

If i compare with an fenja example hal entry
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.dirsetup        [JOINT_0]DIRSETUP
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.dirhold         [JOINT_0]DIRHOLD
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.steplen         [JOINT_0]STEPLEN
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.stepspace       [JOINT_0]STEPSPACE
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.position-scale  [JOINT_0]STEP_SCALE
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.step_type        0
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.control-type     0
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.maxaccel         [JOINT_0]STEPGEN_MAXACCEL
setp   hm2_7i76e.0.stepgen.00.maxvel           [JOINT_0]STEPGEN_MAXVEL

If i try to connect the pins at the configurator i can only choose gpio entries
I have no possiblity to choose the analog ports for the PNP Sensor.

best regards

Chris

Just went 4 times through it and i have to say, those are the same lines.
Hence i am failing to understand what are you asking and what PNP sensor are you wanting to wire to an analogue input?

Ok i see you changed the control_type to 1

If you use pncconf, control type should be 1
