Yes Direct Numerical
Yes it can be slow if you are doing a lot of very small processes.
I sometimes batch send to me control but it will only hold about 2500 lines of code.
I run 9600 baud rate and generally the control doesnt choke up untill a have a long series of extremely short moves.
My CNC work is mostly 1 or 2 off so the DNC is acceptable for me, especially compared to the 3 or 4000 that a wee bit of extra memory costs.
Sorry dont know what BPT is.
