Mach4 General Discussion / I Need to Choose a Motion Controller

« on: January 12, 2017, 01:53:22 PM »

I'm seriously considering making the move from Mach3 to Mach4. I'm currently using the Gecko 540 so I want to stay with the 25 pin parallel port type connection. I see two choices for a motion controller that will work with Mach4: The PMDX-411 or the PoKeys57CNCd25. Is there any preference of one over the other? I'm pretty tech savvy but some of this electronic stuff is over my head. I want something that is powerful enough for hobby type work but not too complicated to set up.

Thank you for your assistance.
