Jon,

I'd love to help, but I think this goes way over my head. I do have
a question though, You mentioned a while back that you would be
putting some I/O on the board to allow some sort of pendant to be
hooked up for emc control. Mind telling us what functions the
pendant will be able to control. I was thinking of building a control
panel for my machine to emulate all of the keyboard commands and
was wondering what you had in mind.
