    Wired MPG on MK3 board

    Hi everyone.
    I've a MPG, and I want to use it on a MK3 board. It have a 15pin d-sub connector surely not compatible with MPG adapter board, so, I have to wire them.
    Attached the signals from my MPG.
    Help to connected them?

    I think 4 (X axis) 5 (Z axis) and 12 (Yaxis) on Ax1 e Ax2 MK3, respectively off off= Z; on off Y; off on=X; (so, I've only 2 signal, would be sufficient 4 and 12).

    + 5V, Com and E-Stop are obvious.

    EN1A and EN1B? I've to link Aphase+ and Bphase+?

    And mode switch? What it need?

    Thank's in advance
    L.

    Ok, I've founded uses of mode on TNG software, I can use 14(X10 Ratio) and 6(X100 Ratio) for this.
    The doubt remains on A and B Phase + and -...
