Yes, 1080p
Check Goodwill, look on back of the monitor and Google the model number to be sure

OK awesome thank you Marty I have an older Del wide screen that I had sitting it’s probably 10 years old but I think that might work until I get the machine up and running and mount a monitor on a arm

+1 on the keyboard. I like the older model better, but it looks like you can't get the silicone cover anymore. I like the older one (K400r) because you can program the custom buttons at the top to launch CNC12 or a specific key stroke combination, and shut down PC. Maybe that can be done on the newer one as well.

I'm one that has had good luck with the Planar and also the small 15" Asus touchscreens.

I also have the MPG and depending on the operation and body location, I use all three.

Seems as though my 10+ year old dell wide screen will do the trick a little bulky but I guess I’ll get a different one when I go to mount it
it’s a dell 2312hmt

OK well hopefully that’s it for a little bit I should be doing bench testing as soon as my M 93 shows up, I will immediately do a bench test and then start wiring the cabinet I think I have just about everything minus one breaker which I guess I’ll figure out once I get into the schematics, Thank you for everybody’s Alvin Marty especially your input, I ordered the keyboard cover and the wireless pendant going to use my dell monitor for now,

Now I have to just start thinking of some production parts that I can make with it

Sorry one last thing I’m not sure if I’m reading this correctly but am I correct on saying that I must purchase the CNC 12 at 159$ in order to use the wireless pendant I did plan to purchase that but I was going to wait till I had it up and running

You need pro to use the WMPG

[Vwfan]

OK no problem I’ll just pay and download that before the pendant gets here

Wireless MPG requires the Pro Level Software: https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_di ... oller.html

The Acorn software is the same for all levels. The license key determines which level is unlocked in the software.

You are probably going to have to wait until your Acorn arrives. The license is tied to the Acorn hardware.
Otherwise contact diysales@centroidcnc.com so they can check which Acorn they sent you.
You have to buy the license ahead of time in any case.
