You could probably make those work with the AllIn1DC or Oak, but not Acorn.
Cheers,

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

Re: Wired MPG for Acorn?
The one with the blue knobs "appears" to be the same one Centroid uses on Oak and All in On DC
It would use up a lot of inputs IF it could be made to work.
Buy the wireless MPG and save yourself the trouble. Or if miiney is an issue, get the Contuor Shuttle Express

Re: Wired MPG for Acorn?
Good new on being able to use the Contour shuttle - another + in the Acorn column. I am working to get my current control working with the thought that if I get it working properly the Acorn upgrade should be easier.

Re: Wired MPG for Acorn?
Why not just use your “wireless” keyboard. It does most everything you need with a lot less hassle. Oh, and you probably already one one.

Re: Wired MPG for Acorn?
Is it possible to change the button functions? My current setup has x y z increment change and reset starting from the left.martyscncgarage wrote: ↑Fri Apr 09, 2021 10:54 pmhttps://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_di ... Xpress.pdf

I do not understand your question. Please explain.lavrgs wrote: ↑Sat Apr 10, 2021 12:28 amIs it possible to change the button functions?

XYZ movements always typically stay the same.
Router, mill or lathe.
Yes the VCP can be customized. https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_di ... manual.pdf
But let's understand your statement.

Re: Wired MPG for Acorn?
I was just on you tube and came across the allin1 board but at 14:02 they talk about using the encoder port for lathe mpgs i wonder if this would work for the cheap mpg like I was talking about
