Curt,
Many thanks for the info.
Your schematic will be great, and allow me to finish
the PIC controller without having to go over all the
ground you have already covered.
At the moment speed is not a major criteria, although
no doubt it will become so as the system gets fired
up. Initially I will be happy to have a system which
will produce 5 x 3 pcb's ready for roller tinning
unattended.
I think the next hurdle will be to convert a bitmap to
an xy raster for edm'ing. I might go for a second PIC
for this, ie download .bmp file to a PIC running
compact flash memory, and use the PIC to interpret and
drive the xy axes and spark on/off, maybe even set
voltage from it by driving Ben's Z servo, (when I get
delivery of the book).
This is certainly turning into a very interesting
project.
