I am confused on another point. I had thought that motion controllers such as Smoothstepper, and presumably also the UCCNC motion controllers, removed the need for a breakout board. And yet there is a breakout board option for the UCCNC motion controllers?
Also, what would be a typical use for analog I/O on a breakout board?
I still have the demo Mach 3 and have been trying to decide between LinuxCNC and PathPilot/Mesa board going forward.
