Sv: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Caliper to PC interface

Hi Kim.

I don't think you can "control" the caliper. But why do you want to do that
? My caliber (some cheap China brand)sends out the relative and absolute
data every 320 millisecond, so why not just wait and grab the data ?

> I am (trying to) interface a no name (offshore) electronic caliper to a

PC. This caliper has the 4 wire interface: GND, PWR, Clock and Data.

have is how do I ask the caliper for data ? If I have it hooked up to the
PC and I want to capture position data in real time, how does/can the PC
control WHEN the data is sent ?
