Re: CNC12 and RS-485...
My current ShopBot configuration uses a USB-RS-485 adapter to talk to my Yaskawa VFD. Is it possible to configure CNC12 to use that interface instead of trying to figure out if the VFD will take a 0..10V signal off the Acorn? Tnx. g. Gene...

Re: Rotary axis with gantry router?
You can hardware pair the gantry axis to allow adding a 4th axis. Every ShopBot ever shipped from Durham has been wired in this manner. We are currently shipping our Acorn 4 ClearPath systems configured this way and are including independent axis Auto square
