General Mach Discussion / Re: Bridgeport V2XT, SX-16, conversion to Mach3

Thanks Hood for the reply and the info
Found a working V2XT DX32 with a BMDC this weekend 04/11/09 so I'll hold off on the conversion to Mach3 for now.
Did check out the Galil boards and Wow the mill I just purchased didn't cost that much but if your desperate to get your mill up and running it's a bargin.

General Mach Discussion / Bridgeport V2XT, SX-16, conversion to Mach3

« on: April 10, 2009, 01:13:45 AM »

Greetings
I'm in the process of purchasing a Bridgeport V2XT with the SX-16 controller plugged into the old FMDC type BP board and would like to convert to Mach3 but need advice on how to interface a PC to the V2XT servo drive boards.
Any help would be appreciated.
Randy

Greetings everyone,
Randy here from Southern California like to say thanks for letting me join your group. I'm a Chief Engineer for a major banking data center and have enjoyed the art of metal working for quite some time. Have done just about every thing you can do with metal from tig wielding Alum to machining parts so small I needed a microscope to see what I was cutting, it probable was just my eyes going bad. Ever Oct. I get to take off work for about three weeks to put together a haunted house for Halloween and make all kinds of animatronics to scare the living, lots of fun.
Happy Mach3..ing
Randy
