Yes, I'm sure it could be done with a USB device, but I was really hoping to not have to add to my endless list of things to do when I retire (coming soon, gradually).
I'm just getting into UCCNC, but it would appear that there are encoder inputs - and if those encoders can be made to update a DRO, then a macro loop ought to be able to translate those DROs to motion control. Maybe. I have barely scratched the documentation, but it seems like something that ought to be possible. This kind of interfacing is right in my wheelhouse, it's just a matter of finding the time to do it.
