USB-DRO now available

IMService has a new DRO kit available. Up to 6 counters can be
displayed on a Windows XP or Vista computer monitor. The display is
resizable, offering miniature size up to full screen sizes, and
choice of your favorite font.

The DRO is implemented with the aid of a dedicated hardware counter
board with 32 bit registers and 1 million count per second
capability. Works with user supplied quadrature encoders( 5vdc
single ended ) or pulsers, with 1 2 and 4X count multipliers.
Offloading of the count functions to an external board, permits
simultaneous operation with Windows PC controllers such as DeskCNC,
Mach3, ncPOD, Flashcut, etc.

The counters can be preset and will accurately display inches, mm, or
degrees. The counters can also function as tachometers.

The DRO is ideal for manual machines, and is also fast enough to keep
up with most CNC machines. When used in conjunction with a CNC
machine, it can be used to independantly verify position on a stepper
system. It has Backlash compensation to facilitate use of rotary
shaft encoders on linear slides.

4 axis kit $250.
