Open most any PC computer and that is what modern controllers look like
inside for the most part. If you are using EMC, Mach1, TurboCNC, CNCPro,
DeskCNC, etc the controller is your PC.

Most controllers do not take DXF code. They take the G-code that was
generated from your CAM program or post processor.
