Hello Guys,

I'm the recent owner of two KL 8056 stepper drives. As you may know the drives can interface with a computer via a serial connection to be configured with "Protuner". The problem is that I forgot to buy the "special cable" for the connection, and now I am unable to do so. The drives were picked up by somebody visiting the US and brought to my country.

Can anyone help with the pinout of this "calibration cable"?

Thanks alot for your help.
By accident I had stumbled upon that file last night before going to sleep. I didn't know if it would work.
I'll make the cable and post the result.

It worked for me. Ultimately, I decided to set the drives up with the switches. It did, however, allow me to verify functionality of the power supply, drives, and motors before I had a BOB and Mach3.
