Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] RS 232 Output for DRO...closed-loop feedback?

I have the same setup on my Shoptask 'Eldorado' and was trying to get Dave K
at TurboCNC interested in doing what you want to do. He looked into it and
decided it would interfere with timing cycles. If you get something to work,
I would be interested in getting it.

I also pointed out that with the feedback, it would be possible to have a
separate 'utility program' that would test all 'ini file' possibilities and
maximize values for the ini file. Wouldn't THAT be nice !!!

Good luck.
