thank you

I don't think so. I think all non proprietary plugins are listed on the machsupport plugins page.

Unfortunately you don't hear much about the Acroloop card, particularly after Parker took them over.
They did have (or may still) have a router software, and a mill version written specifically for the card.
The S/W was AcroCut and Acromill, I am actually running a machine with it still.
Nice clean software and had the advantage of being a really nice closed loop system.
A couple of the major plasma Manuf used it for their Plasma gantry machines.
I was a Acroloop integrator for a time back when they were still in Minn.

The DOS based S/W I have is for the older ISA bus cards ACR6000 etc.
The thing I liked was the amount of I/O on the card and the internal PLC.
I have the S/W but you would need to integrate it.

I have two cards , the ACR 1200, and the ACR 8010, they both come from an old controller given to me.

I like the amount of I/O in the cards, the 8010 is a 16 bit isa/stand alone card, the 1200 is an stand alone one, someone suggested that those cards understand gcode
, well , I have been programming ISO gcode, for both mill, and lathe since 1981 , but the integration to the system would be another matter, in the controller that i was given there was also
a number of dc servo amps, and some dc servos as well. I would appreciate very much if you can help.
thank you

If you send me a email add via PM I can see what I can round up, I believe I still have a few manuals in PDF as well as the program.
