Sorry, haven't RTFM, downloading as I type. I'm considering buying a Far Eastern made 3 axis DRO for my Pinnacle universal mill, DRO + 3 glass scales (to 1/5thou") and all cabling etc etc for under 400 UK Pounds.
This DRO has an RS232 output. So, does EMC have the facility to take absolute X Y Z positioning data from the RS232 on the DRO, rather than the traditional method of counting leadscrew revolutions and subtracting backlash and wear?
