Hopefully they'll fix the focus issue in a future release

Rick, What Scott means by a "Focus issue" is that when you first start the software click anywhere on the screen to make it active and responsive to keyboard commands. Once you do that the first time the software starts, it should be fine for that session. FYI, CNC 12 has not been released...

You would typically series your physical Estop button with the Acorn fault relay output (you can assign one of the onboard relays to be a fault relay in the Wizard) so that either o...

On the page where the Acorn, Allin, and OAK controllers are compared there is a mention that USB MPG Compatible is TBA - Has anyone heard any updates on this very handy option?

Quickie video on how to generate a report to back up your parameters and system settings and to provide it to Centroid Support when requested.
Note: With Acorn you can only "restore report" on the same version of CNC12.
