That would seem to be a good fit for a Mesa 7i77 combo. 6 regular encoder inputs plus the 2 MPG encoder inputs available on the field inputs, would give you one extra encoder input. Todd Zuercher P. Graham Dunn Inc. 630 Henry Street  Dalton, Ohio 44618 Phone:  (330)828-2105ext. 2031 -Orig

Can your cad/cam program do that in 300 LOC? 100k LOC maybe. What difference does that make? CAM usually won't generate as compact code as hand coding with loops but even a million lines of code is only a few megabytes. LCNC is only really limited by the available storage so code size isn't a
