General Mach Discussion / Will this modbus device work with Mach3

« on: January 10, 2007, 11:05:04 PM »

This looks like a very versatile  I/O unit for less than an arm and three fingers. Is there any hope that it will work with just some VB scripting? My dual pci lpt port card arrives tomorrow should I just chuck it out for this.
