Thanks for your link, the Easson readout I have on my lathe is acting up. The number 3 on the keypad went dead,(can't enter a number with 3 in it) DRO pros offered to fix it out of warranty but I'd have no DRO while it was shipped there repaired and shipped back (too long to the states). I'm using 3 scales on the lathe, the readout sums the carriage and the compound. ( i have a Fagor on the big lathe that does the same thing) They no longer carry that readout but the company from your link has one that they say will work with my scales, $200 plus shipping, will probably order it tomorrow.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
