Title: DRO only screen...
Post by: halkintool on January 27, 2009, 01:12:26 PM

How hard would it be to make a screen that was DRO only, like a single or dual axis readout that was almost the entire size of the monitor, but had buttons to zero the readout.

I have a hydraulic straightening press that i would like to add a DRO too, and if i made a custom mach screen, i could just use a junk PC and the PPort to make a super cheap DRO.

Ive' never done a screen, if its easy, let me know and ill try er out.

Watch the screen4 videos and you shouldn't have any problems. it's pretty simple.
