    Question EdingCNC iCNC600 vs Cs-Lab CSMIO/IP-S

    Please help me to decide winch motion control is better for my new 4 axis cnc router.
    (250x150x100mm working area, 4 axis Samsung CSDJ 100w servo, 0.27Kw Teknomotor, ball screw 2mm pitch)
    I want to engrave with this router small pieces (silver, brass).
    1) Eding 400Khz vs Cs-lab 4Mhz - Old hardware Eding.
    2) Eding index home via hardware vs Cs-lab index home software implemented - I want accurate homing.
    3) Eding software dedicated vs mach3 - Maybe Eding better.
    5) Eding support Fabulous via email , no wiring example in Eding web vs Cs-lab customer service almost no replay but a lot of schematics in the web
    6) Eding price+SW vs Cs-lab price+Mach3 - Eding more expensive and not similar speed hardware to compare.
    Any other important diference to take in count?
    Thank you!
    Coly

    This is all you need to know. Mach3 is buggy, and unsupported. Eding wins hands down.

    The Eding is much better than Mach3 as a control, although more expensive, worth the extra money

    Can by true this but no schematics, no wiring example.
    This can be a big problem.

    Mach3 it is buggy, maybe, but I can find the solution in his forum, without ask and wait.

    What good does it do if someone shows you how to wire it, but it doesn't work?

    Yes, it is allmost true (mach3 it is buggy and Cs-Lab is prepairing his own SimCNC software ), but is work if I don't know how to connect?

    If you go to there down load select which board you want, it has all you need to wire them up examples are in the down load, if you don't understand what something means, you can email him and he will email you with what you want to know

    It is very simple to connect, you can use a cheap Breakout Board with a gender changer, I think the simplest is to use the DB25 Connector as per Photos

    He has a new Breakout Board also, which would take the place of what is in the photos

    It is not about how to connect.
