My 'new to me' big lathe came with a CHFOIC branded 2 axis DRO, is of Chinese manufacture like a lot of this modern stuff. Was working fine, now the DRO seems to be failing its Power On Self Test. The manual is in Chinglish and the troubleshooting section doesn't go much beyond a 'no display, change the fuse' level of complexity.
So, it looks like I need to buy a new head unit. The issue being that I can't find the same branded unit except as part of a kit that comes with the X & Z scales. From the thin information on the 'net it appears that the CHFOIC scale interface uses something called JCXE with the pinouts as below. Any ideas for a suitable head unit would be most welcome. Thanks for reading.
