When we try to move an axis EMC errors off with a follow error. We have checked and there is no voltage being sent out of the DAC card from EMC. It works fine with the PPMC diagnostics. Just noting with EMC.  Anyone running EMC BDI 4.3 with PPMC.

I did some preliminary tests with the help of Jon Elson back in April. Only had one motor attached, but it did spin up in response to MDI and jogs. One of two things spring to mind.. 1) You are using the wrong IO controller - Set EMCIO = ppmcbridgeportio 2) Alternatively, the ENABLE_INDEX for each axis needs inverting. Regards, Paul.
