You do not need to do anything with the MIN & MAX_OUTPUT values. They are
for servos with a Servo to GO card.

Set the INPUT_SCALE, OUTPUT_SCALE, and max rate and adjust the PERIOD
setting if using freqmod and you should be working. You may need to alter
some of the polarity settings. I am on the road so I don't have an EMC ini
file to refer to, but much of the per axis stuff is not for step and
direction output.
