It's relatively easy to connect the 25 pin DB25S connector to a 26 pin dual in line using ribbon cables, if you them straight through. To make one with a redirected pattern means you will have to split the ribbon and position the wires manually. Not too hard if you use rainbow ribbon cable. The all blue or gray cables will need a lot of visual checking to get it right. You should make a test fixture to verify the connections. If you are making a lot you would probably modify the printed circuit board so you can use straight through connections.
If you are only switching between TurboCNC and EMC, then you only need to make an adapter for each. If the existing connections are fine, then only one for the alternate setup. |
