Forgot to mention the use for the wiring...

JP1 - Multimode
K1 Com --> VFD - DCM -- Input signal
K1 N/O --> VFD - M1 --> ESS - Clockwise

JP2 - Multimode
K2 Com --> VFD - DCM --> Input Signal
K2 N/O --> VFD - M2 --> ESS Counter Clockwise

J6 - 1 = Port 1 Pin 1 --> VFD - ACM --> ESS - Spindle COM
J6 - 16 = Port 1 Pin 16 --> VFD - AVI --> ESS - Spindle PWM

Hey All,
I am moving from Mach3 to March4 and swapping out the stock controller for a PMDX-126 and ESS. My limit switches and motors are working, now it is time for the spindle. I would like to use the onboard relays to denote direction. I believe my wiring is correct, but I need some help with the configuration. Looking at the setup below, can you please tell me how to configure the ESS and Mach4?

JP1 - Multimode
K1 Com -> VFD - DCM
K1 N/O -> VFD - M1

JP2 - Multimode
K2 Com -> VFD - DCM
K2 N/O -> VFD - M2

J6 - 1 = Port 1 Pin 1 -> VFD - ACM
J6 - 16 = Port 1 Pin 16 -> VFD - AVI

My old motion controller is out and the PMDX-126 is in!
Riding it like a pony is the ESS. I am having trouble getting my ESS mapping correct. I put my motor controllers on the PMDX pins 2-9 and my limit switches on pins 13, 15, E, F, G, H.

How should I map those PMDX pins to the ESS?
Which port are the 2-9 pins on?
Which port are the 13, 15, E, F, G, H pins on?
How do I reference lettered pins in the ESS setup when it is only showing numbered pins?

Attached is an image of my install, please let me know if it looks sane.

Any help or config images would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
