Re: 5vdc to 8 Relay Output Board - How?
I have the earlier 8 relay board, connected to an Acorn Rev-2. To get 5vdc to the relay board, I used a LM2596 converter to lower the 24vdc to 5vdc.

Re: CNC4PC C86ACCP for ClearPath SDSK servos
What is the voltage the C86ACCP gives to the drivers 24V or 5V?

All the buttons from the VCP with a small bevel
I added a bevel to all the icons of the VCP, for who is interested: attached the zip file with all the icons. I also included the png files I used to change the icons. If you like them you free to use them, if you do not like them, use the origional or your own icons.

Kind regards,

Re: Fusion 360 Mill Post Processor for Acorn with additional Features
Hi Swissi,
Thanks for the additional features, very handy.
There is still one minor thing I do not like about the Centroid post processor: the program name of the gcode file must be a number, while Centroid can handle 'normal filenames'. It would be very nice, if I can type alphanumerical ...
