Gerber Dimension 200 e Engravers RnR from the new Newb .

[Kru82]

have made you made any more progress
i just obtained a d200 witch i am currently striping to clean as my one is in a very dirty state
planning on changing drive electronics to something current

It has been awhile , and sry to anyone looking how I made out with mine .

Did a total swap of all the Gerber electronics and motors , went with gecko G540 ( http://www.cncrouterparts.com/3-axis...-kit-p-74.html ) and mach 3 . On both machines I kept windows xp and only the very basics on the comp . ( stand alone ) no net no virus no other junk that was basically a waste . Turned off all updates and and firewall since it is not connected to the net . They work great and have some issues with file transfers from other comp Cd's and that about it .( could be just old CD's ) Use a memory stick will prob be a better means to end anyway .

Since all the lead screws are identical , settings through mach 3 is just a matter of typing in the same settings

So now I have extra Arc stations and the rest to part with to whom ever needs some items .
