the chnc turret is a sweet turret!
not sure if anyone has done it yet with Acorn, but we did a bunch of them with allin1dc.
the turret documentation we did 20 years ago is here.
https://www.centroidcnc.com/downloads/c ... Manual.pdf
pick up a Ether1616 to go with the Acorn to add the additional i/o you are going to need with the chnc.

It tells you to use inputs 1 thru 4 on acorn but they are 24 v this is 12 v so I used inputs on ether 1616 and installed resistors for 12 v Is this the correct way to go
