Not sure what you mean by this. But to use two PP BOB's you will need to P ports on the pc. so you would need another PP card fitted and the two cables one to each BOB.I'm not that familiar with parallel port/db25 instruction. Can I daisy chain the two boards together or do I need to run a separate card to the second BOB?
I have been using Linuxcnc for these simple jobs but it is a learning curve. I think Mach3 can take at least two PP BOB's then you would set them up in ports & pins. Plenty of vids on the net for that.Last edited by Clive S; 20-07-2018 at 09:19 PM.
