STG and Parallel Port

["William Scalione" <wscalione-at-nc.rr.com>]

I have a friend trying to get EMC running with a STG card. So far he has
bought some boards from US Digital that will input the encoder pulses and
output a tach signal needed by his amps. This is required because the
original tach signal was generated by the old controller motherboard. So far
that seems to be working ok, so if anyone needs to generate tach signals
from encoder pulses there's your answer.

Now for the question, Is anyone using the STG I/O for the limits, home,
coolant etc, or do we still need 2 parallel ports for bridgeportio
