Ok disregard that, just had another look. It should be simple to get the servo tester connected.
:idea: Here's a step by step guide.
- Remove the potentiometer, or just desolder the pin connected to R32.
- Solder a wire to the pin of R32 that was connected to the potentiometer.
- Connect the other end of that wire to the chosen output pin on the parallel port...say pin 14.
- Solder a wire to the negative of the circuit board, e.g. pin labled '-' on connector JIN, and connect it to any ground pin on the parallel port.
- Set PWM frequency in mach3 to something high, like 1000.
- Under Config-->Spindle Pulleys set max speed to the max RPM of your motor.
- Cross fingers...it should work as normal with the rpm show in mach3 corresponding correctly.
