Thanks mactec45! Works perfectly and I've now got it under RS485 control.

Hi all.

I had this VFD working great with my Chinese 6040 router when I used it last a few years ago. But recently I blew the dust off the router and the VFD settings seem to have been reset or...

The only one that looks a bit less than claimed is Y which is supposed to be nearly 23". To tell you the truth,...
