does mach3 support G-Rex G100?
does mach3 support G-Rex G100?
The Mach3 plugin is being developed right now. There was about a 1 year delay while new firmware was being written for the G100, but the plugin is expected to be completed in the next 2-3 months. You can download beta versions now.

so with the grex G-Rex G100 G-Rex G101 you can the bob board?
Yes, the G100 replaces the BOB, it also replaces any question's one might have w/ the robustness of timing w/in windows. It also has 16 inputs, 16 outputs and 4 anologe in 4 anologe outputs as well as 6 limit inputs 6 encoder inputs and the needed step direction connections for 6 axis. It will export step direction signal's up to 4 Mhz per axis and will accept up to 1Mhz input on the encoder side [per axis] In comparison, Mach3 will only send out 45Khz of step/direction pulses.
The G100 will do everything that two breakout boards will do, and do it better, faster, and smoother. It also cost's 2-3x as much as a standard BOB.
I'm using one w/ the current Beta Plug and it run's great! There are a couple tweak's to get done before its full release.. however I'm really impressed with how well it run's even w/ just a Beta Plugin.

I am very interested in this product. Any chance you could write a bit of a review? Maybe discuss your machine, application, and the results the G100 allows?
Ignore me if this seems demanding!

I'd love to.. if I could find the time... my writing isn't probably the best either as I tend to ramble..
We'll see maybe I'll get time at some point.. its probably not worth the effort until it's "offically" released anyway..
