Sarcasm the meaning:

The use of remarks that clearly mean the opposite of what they say, made in order to hurt someone's feelings or to criticise something in a humorous way:

Robin I take it you where educated at Cambridge was it English grammer. How disappointing I thought this was a forum not not a playground for the uneducated.

Well, where you were educated it was obviously somewhere where it was customary to pose questions whilst providing insufficient information to provide an adequate answer.

It's disappointing that the uneducated come here and pose questions which are impossible to answer due their own assumed level of knowledge and, proving unable to recognise this, resort to remonstrating with those with a sense of humour about the shortcomings of the questions.

:D

Me? Sarcastic? Probably. I was trying to explain why you were getting no replies

Hi no problem thanks for getting back. I have posted the details of my cnc I hope I can get some informative replies on upgrading and setting up the controller with a suitable cad/cam.

If you were willing to learn CAD / CAM with something like Fusion 360, this is an easy thing to sort with something else (loads of controller options).

Hi Chaz
Yes great cad/cam software quite easy to use also my main design software is Aspire V Carve. But at the present moment I need to upgrade my controller and I am looking for an appropriate controller thats reliable and has a proprietary software program any ideas.

Personally Id just install Centroid Acorn. Its stable, runs well and is slowly gathering pace as a viable product. Centroid is a known entity, this is their entry into the DIY market. Ive got one on my lathe.

Yes I will google the product and do some research thanks

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the stand out thing for me, is you've learnt to use the existing controller even though it's in Polish and it's working well, but you still want to upgrade it?

Having had a look at the PIKO site, it looks like a good package, so as along as you've figured out how to use it, I don't think I'd be in much rush to swap it to something else.
