    Eggo,

    I don't get MEW but might answer your question anyway. Mach3 does have a input configurable for an edge finder. It is the probe input. Using a touch probe you can do edge finding and other things. There are prebuilt routines for finding the center of a hole and other probing routines. I build a touch probe just for this that you can change the tip and also use for setting your tool heights.
