Not yet, Mill, Lathe, Router, Laser for now!

if you want to do rotary on a gantry plasma machine, hardware pair the Gantry motors to free up the 4th axis for rotary.

Is AcornSix with plasma planned to be a thing? I need a second analog out for a VFD..

yep!

Will the new 5.0v of CNC12 be able to install on previous Acorn 4th axis controllers? I would like to see the difference between the 4.80v to the new?

With the encoder inputs, will AcornSix allow closed loop on servos like the DMM DYN4?

Needs to be tested, but should work....

... but if I see how many users have trouble with DMM I would prefer JMC

Waiting to see if if its closed loop (tuneable) capable too. That might be the deal breaker for me if not.
