    Default Tormach Shuttle controller

    Now that I have played with my new 1100 some I really like their Shuttle controller a lot more than the wireless MPG I am using on my Bridgeport conversion. I was wondering if I can connect one of those controllers to any machine running standard Mach 3 or does Tormach use some type of proprietary driver to make it run on their machines.

    The one big advantage to the wireless MPG is that it also does the feed rate override. Is there any way to reconfigure the A axis on the shuttle controller to act as a feed rate override?

    Simple way to find out if it will work on your Bridgeport is to plug it in and try it.

    You can buy GOOD PARTS or you can buy CHEAP PARTS, but you can't buy GOOD CHEAP PARTS.

    There is a standard Mach3 plug-in that supports the Shuttle and ShuttlePro. It is available from the ArtSoft website.
