IR, opto-isolated input?
The good old 4N25 to 4N37 range is typically 1.18v at 10 mA, according
to the datasheet, so a bit less than the 1.6v we're used to from red
LEDs. (OK, I

The manual I found here:

says at the bottom of page 6, that 5 Volts can be applied to the inputs
without a limit resistor, unless I'm missing something. Maybe there is
already a limit resistor inside.

Yes, in a way. But, the G02/G03 is known to be a single move, so
there is no velocity

LMC says National Semiconductor CMOS op-amps to me, e.g. LMC662,
but if you added two pen strokes, we'd have: EMC :-)
If LinuxCNC really is too long to type, what about: LC ?
(Does that resonate at all? ;-)
