Hi Adam

you only need to use the C10 BOB or screw terminal 25 way socket
not both

the C10 BOB has the advantage of buffering the inputs & outputs to & from the printerport
also it gives the printerport some protection

the 3 year old PC I an using to connect to the net has a printerport that works at 3.3V logic levels not the 5V levels of the old IBM PC I have for CNC projects

when you moved the machine did you lose a 5V + 12V power supply ?

its possible to take the supply from the PC

Hi Adam

Just double checked and the C10 has a 25 pin plug


to connect it to the 25 way socket on a PC
you need a printer extension cable with male and female ends

not a printer cable with two male ends !

Hi Adam

while your photo is a bit too low a resolution
this a little more of the wiring of your box
from what I can see
