    I have been running 2.4 for months. I have just rewired my rig to clean things up. Downloaded 2.5.1 and and the new manual. I am doing one axis at a time. Sabertooth 2x32 Drivers. SMC3 Utility works just fine. With SimTools I don't get a thing out of it. I am thinking it may be the interface settings. Here are pics of the setup

    You look to be missing the square brackets in your interface setting, it should be like this: [A<Axis1a>]
