Master5 OCX

Hi All:

The Master5 interface for VB and C++ has been changed to an OCX. The OCX is available on the Web page. It includes functions for moving, feedrate adjustment, reset, rapid moves, etc...
It seems to be a more popular method of adding functionality to any programs you may write. It will be growing in its functions over the next couple of weeks, so anyone wishing to write Master5 Addons, or plugins can do so with the OCX. It is qiute easy to use. In C++ you just drop the OCX into your dialog control, set a variable for it, then use it like m_CNC.Reset(); m_CNC.RapidTo( 10.5,45.3,5.6,0); double Position = m_CNC.WhereX();

I'm quite willing to put any good addons on the web-site so you can either give them away or sell them as Master5 Plug-ins.( yeah, that'll make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.. :) )So if you always wanted to write a program which cuts Aircraft wings, or Animated cats, or Defies gravity, or sends directly from a CAM program to your machine without G-Code,but needed movement routines to do so, go crazy!

Good luck,
