Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Gecko 210 VS 201 difference?

Lloyd,

The pc's range from a P75 to a PII 450. Part of the speed equation is the
cnc control program. For example Master 5 has always been limited on the
number of pulses that it can generate. My primary program has been the cnc
controller from Backgammon.
