does acorn have modbus? thats the only way id buy one- as its limited io wouldnt be any good for any of my projects.
i could do with something nice for my lathe. otherwise it will have to be done with uccnc.. but that doesnt have a gui for lathe. (unless ger wants to make one :-) )
Nope, dont think so. Some discussions about Modbus on the forums (and extender cards). It has its own PLC language, so assume you could do the same but new language.Quote:

I've heard that they'll be adding more I/O at some point, probably an add-on card?
Sorry, no lathe screenset any time soon. (soon being at least 5 years) :friendly_wink:

drat- i had £20 to give to you for the screen :-) . the trouble is with the uccnc developers- they do everything so good that you cant nag and rush them. - even though we try!
This might be worth a quick read:-Quote:

i really dont want to learn another language to add to the confusion.
i still mix up old mach3 cb when im writing in c# which causes me all sorts of grief!
took me over a week to write and perfect the tool change macro for the triac (when i say perfect- i mean so it works as i want and checks itself throughout). c# is very finiky and likes everything just so. - it took me a day and a bit to write one line of code so the macro will idle if in feedhold!
