Calling for help

Several years ago I purchased two CNC controllers from Backtracks. I have
never been very pleased with the software. Presently I feel that their are
better packages out their that I can adapt these controllers. Apparently so
do they. They now resell Flashcut exclusively.
So, in my quest to convert to software with more functionaltiy I would like
to try out Doug Yeagers CNC Pro. I have downloaded a copy and now have to
setup the Parameter file.
And now for my questions: Does anyone have the parallel port pin definitions
for the old Backtrack controller (not Flashcut)? This controller is
strickingly similar to the MAXNC controller. They may have similar pinouts.
Does any one have the parallel pin definitions for the MAXNC controller?
Any and all help is appreciated.
