Galil / Re: Galil controller compatability (what works with the plugin)

Are you able to use more than one controller on a machine if the axis are not required to be moved synchronously? What would be required to add a second controller?

Thank you, now I just need to find a new (or Used) Galil card that is compatible. It sounds like the ethernet is the way to go. Then the laptop could potentially be used on multiple machines? Or taken inside the house and configured, then go back out and work on things. Sounds great.

I have become real interested in trying the Mach 3 after reading for the last week or so. I had previously had the Camsoft installed (Don't like it at all after dealing with them for over many months). I had the Galil motion control installed, and then had a problem with a bad connection on a hot wire in the mill I aquired and shorted to ground. Completely fried out the Galil and the PC. I am now ready to get it running again. I'll have to post a picture in the future of what not to do to your hardware.

Is the Galil driver set able to work with the legacy cards like the DMC-1040 or do I need to have a newer card? Is there a list of the Galil that has been tested or designed to run with the Mach drivers?

Thanks
