You have the second RS232 on your machine already , I`ve made my own interface , all this is described on cnczone.

Nice indexer, but Haas sucks. Your indexer puts shitty haas machines to shame.

Hi , why are you so mad for haas machines ? I like them same like I do hate them, I am very curious for your opinion .

He hates them because he heard some bad info on them. He has probably never touched one. My work has a few of them and they are very reliable. Our VF3 is from 2002 and runs 16 hrs a day 5 days a week with very few problems in that time. Any problems we do have can be fixed with in a day. try having a Japanese machine fixed in a day, its not going to happen.
