Hi Mac, Nice. But that actually isn't the Version. It is showing the GCode File you loaded. To see the Version in KMotionCNC right click on the title bar and select About. Regards TK

The circled area is the Kmotion431o folder
But I did add a photo
I'll check out the Konnect Program in the morning

Added a couple of photos, basically I am getting a COMM ERRROR AUX 25
I am using the supplied 2" cable. There is a photo my setup. Maybe missing a direct ground, I attempted to isolate the board.

Hi Mac, That would indicate a hardware problem. Konnect has a built in signature Byte of Hex A5. This is used as a verification that things are working correctly. In your case the signature is being incorrectly read as 0x25 instead of 0xA5 (bit 7 is wrong). Obvious possibilities are: Bad KFLOP, Bad Konnect, bad Cable, or Software Bug. Bytes are passed through the Aux1 connector on IOs 26-33. IO 33 (KFLOP JP6 pin 14) is bit 7 Please check the cable for damage, shorts, and that there is connectivity through pin 14 from connector to connector. You might also test KFLOP IO 33 with a voltmeter that it properly can toggle The Aux Bus Protocol works as following: #1 Select Board #2 Write Output Byte 0 #3 Write Output Byte 1 #4 Read Input Byte 0 #5 Read Input
Byte 1 #6 Read Input Byte 2 #7 Read Input Byte 3 #8 Read Signature Byte 0xA5 BTW we plan to make this hardware/software protocol open for Users wishing to make (or sell) custom IO boards. Attached is a small program to just perform steps #1 and #2 above. If you Cycle Power on KFLOP (with Konnect) and run it Konnect LEDs 0-7 should turn on. Please try it. Regards TK

Ran the c program all 0-7 LED's turned on.
Tried 2 other cables and a second Konnect board, all with same results.

I will need a RMA# for a bad Kflop board.
I pulled out another Kflop/Kanalog set and Konnect works fine on that combination.
No drives hooked up as yet on the last set, had to pull it out of a cabinet I was building but not yet wired. Will swap boards and get this thing working this week.
Odd! ... thanks for the possible issues to help me track it down.

Hi Mac,
Strange the KFLOP would command all 8 LEDs on but not read the 8-bit signature.
Use RMA #20. If you need more info PM me.

I swapped the Kflop boards and machine is working fine with Konnect board attached and konnect code running in the Init.c file.
I tried Recovery and then re-flashing the bad board but same "COMM ERRROR 25" message. (Do like the added the extra R)
I'll get it in the mail this week.
Regards
