Yes they are just profiteering off industry which is wrong. End of day that just costs the public because industry just pass it on.
Wonder how many sales they have lost because of this policy.? because I can't imagine anyone who like me is just retrofitting the odd machine and knows that the Acorn comes with all this extra functionality for less than half the price will buy an OAK. Esp when they can buy the controllers like I've just ordered from china for 1/3rd the price.

On that note just to answer your question about ATC and chain type then yes it can. We have just setup a What's App group with the engineer who is setting up the controller so I asked him.
