Stepcraft LPT connection
Hello there!
I just want use my stepcraft in Linuxcnc environment. But it can works only thru the LPT.
My stepcraft equipped by USB converter in X1 slot.
Does any one knows the pinouts of this slot to make a correct LPT connection thru X1 slot?
You can't use the current USB interface as it's a dongle dedicated to Win PC-NC and cannot be used for other software.
Best thing to do is to buy the Parallel module instead (and don't forget to ask for the corresponding back cover!).

I see that lpt module is simple roads on pcb no chip on it. I just want know pinouts on slot X1 to make by hand this lpt module.
Here you can find a connection plan in German.
