I only needed to write the turret.comp and I think the s32equal.comp. The rest were already available. These config files use the old HAL commands and need to be updated. I will probably put everything into one .hal file when I get around to it. I've learned a bit since converting my HNC, so I would do some things differently now. > What is the board next to the DAC ? > I was under the understanding that the PWM main board read the encoders Those are RS-422 differential receivers that convert the X, Z and spindle encoder +/- signals to single ended signals. There are RS-422 transmitters on the encoder side of the cables. http://www.maxim-ic.com/app-notes/index.mvp/id/723 These were used to help prevent electrical noise becoming a problem. I'm not sure they really helped.
