Re: Grizzly G4003G conversion
I would agree with the 3 phase and vfd normally being cheaper, however not in this case. The link is to a servo motor with a controler and timing gears and belt for $444.00 that will bolt right up to my machine.

Re: E-stop will not work using N C switch
E stop is input 8 by default, there you can switch the button from red to green.

Re: Dxf
I have no problems with dxf import, but this one is also not a closed contour.
To mill pockets, dxf must be closed around the pocket.
I use AutoCAD LT or Inkscape with no problems.

Outputs on the CNC are not switched by an relay, they are switched with the software and can switch an relay.
