Just an FYI  you will need a new tool change macro to read the tool change pos from the DRO's. If you would like I can post a new tool change macro (there are many that have asked about this in the past few weeks)  and upload it to the FTP server.

Thanks

1Ghz or better and it should be a desktop computer

There is a program called LazyCam that is free with Mach3 and will take in 2d DXF's

Hope that helps

I think if you can post a pic of the inside of the control box we can tell you what you are running :) The guys here have installed and run about everything ;)

Yes it can be done but only if you are a C programmer and can make a plug In to run the device :( There is no simple way... sorry..

Yes it is in the latest dev version of mach3 :) If it is going to go past the softlimits it will give you a message when you press the cycle start.. or it should ;)

David you don't need any software for the shuttle on your computer :) So take it all off and I think it will start working right :)
