Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Which version of EMC?

Well, late last night I installed the 15Mar2000 version of EMC under RH 5.2
with the R/T patch. The sim version appears to run fine using xemc or TkEmc
GUI. Does this mean that if I had hardware connected that it would work? I
guess what I'm asking is whether the sim accurately mimics an actual
machine. If so, then I guess I'm ready for integration with the mill.

Thanks,

Ward M.
