I'm building a slightly modified version of the Universal CNC
Controller featured in the 1/2003+ issues of the Home Shop
Machinist. Last night I downloaded the trial versions of Mach1 and
Mach2 - I'm literally awestruck! The programs are exceptional and
I've decided to incorporate them into my system (not sure if I'll be
running W98 or XP - so I'll have to wait to decide on Mach1 or
Mach2).
My question - does anyone have experience using the Mach1 or Mach2
software witht the PMDX Breakout Board? I'd like to hear any
comments before I decide. Also, when I went to Campbell Design site
(linked from artofcnc.ca) I learned that their breakout board was
modified to run with Mach1. Two questions - does the pmdx board
need to be modified, and does one of these two work better with the
Art of CNC software.
Again, any comments would be appreciated.
