I do not know about other options for communication over serial port. AFAIK there are several standards for serial port, so I think that specifying more details would help. You definitely can define Your M code commands (M100 to M199) and/or remap existing commands to do Your own functions, so on this side LinuxCNC is way more flexible - You can adjust it so that it takes the generated code without additional adjustments. -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
