I have been using the Xoomspeed wireless conversion kit for maybe 6 months or so and have had no issues with latency. I’ve compared the probe results to a Haimer and have seen no differences. Fast probe at 20 ipm...can’t recall the second slow probe speed at the moment. The Xoomspeed base station sh...

That’s the exact setup I’m using. The Xoomspeed wireless setup works great! There is also a second input for a toolsetter, or whatever you’d like, and it can detect inputs from both devices.

Hiya Milton, Reviving this old thread. I've finally gotten to thinking about trying to get the spindle speed calibrated and am unsure which pots on which device to adjust. The KBCC-125R manual seems to say the max speed pot won't work when you're using voltage following mode (which I assume is the s...

Thanks, Reed! I was wondering what you made the gibs from...now I know. I understand how you made them and the mounting blocks. How did you do the linear rails? Can you post more pics?
