I’m trying to upgrade to jackpot 2 from an old c c controller with external drivers. Any help on how to go about this would help

What steppers are you going to use with this? Will the TMC 2209 drivers on the Jackpot 2 provide enough current for them?
You’ll need to provide a few more details of what you are working with and what it is you would like assistance with for us to guide you through it.

Thank you all for your help. I was able to convert my old system to the new jackpot two everything works great except for the spindle connection. Thank you all for your help.

Hmm, laser isn’t possible with the 2 afaik, so that means neither is spindle control?
It should be ok with an add on board I believe. But that is probably better answered by @vicious1 or @MakerJim

PWM interfaces are no-go on Jackpot 2 without an add-on board.
Jackpot 2 does have a FluidNC compatible expansion connector, so depending on the spindle type it MAY be possible. I’d need more specifics.

You can do spindle on and off, just no PWM speed control without a fluidnc expansion port.
