Jazz, no it's the full figure 126999ft which is about £350, I did post earlier which for a breakout board is stupid.

But then another company, in another country, in another language etc,

I feel this thread has been very good just the odd person a bit thin skinned. Basically people have been able to ask question on things the company don't deem worth putting into print.

From my perspecive I wasn't interested after reading the absolute crap manual, I have seen better VFD manuals and everyone knows that have an annual contest to see who can write the most technical and obtuse manual out [ Siemens won it last year hands down because I had to ring Siemens in London and they didn't know, it too 2 days for Germany to find an answer. And the problem ? How do you wire it for 3 wire operation ]

So for now, for me as we all have different agenda's, I find it can thread from the You tube video with the felt tip pen. OK not all the world but it does pull out at the same point every time and tracks OK.
Negative points, no lathe screens and therefore no conversational and no instructions but if it's work in progress it might be worth following.

That could be partly overcome if it can use the Mach3 plug in but then this opens up another can of worms. EVERY Mach3 plug in for threading and this includes K-Flop and CSCMIO has to pause at the end of the thread whilst it hands back to Mach causing a run off groove which is not acceptable for many parts.

Is the plug in for the UC300ETH the same ?

Even if I decided to take a chance and add another paper weight to the shelf it wouldn't do much good as I have no idea how to wire the Channel A+, A-, B+, B- and index pulse up to the 156 available pins and in what combination.

Or even what resolution encoder to buy.

But I say it is worth keeping in mind.

On the video, sorry but nothing you have shown me impresses me. My girlfriend can shop quicker than that.

Look at this very old video of Mach 3 cutting alloy, not running a pen around.

You need to fast forward to the 12 minute mark or you will fall asleep.

Not saying UCCNC can't do better just you are not showing it.
