Is there anyway to turn GPIO or an I2C/SPI board to run a Pulse/Direction Axis? I want to use it to control steppers with a stepper driver using Softmotion Library. If so I would like to test with 3D Delta printer.

Hi,
i agree these puls/direction steppers would be useful for many applications but
it is no easy possible to use them by the GPIO's. ( there is no Driver available for SoftMotion and guess you need for sure additional harware / Extension board / whatever)
At the moment only the EL2521 by using Ethercat solution is running out of the box including SoftMotion driver

It looks good. Did you already tried it? Do have easy access by codesys?

Any answer?
This is very interesting to me too, anybody knows the answer?

Hello.
Unfortunately i wasn´t able to try. I´m waiting for the Hardware.
At the moment i try to solve problems with webvisu and RS232 Communication.
