Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

If you mean could you put a MicroMite in the sea-of-holes in CG's CMM unit, and then talk between them, then yes - no problems. Use either I2C or serial.

Could the CMM simply act as (in the same way) a VT100 ?

Yes, but you would have to write a terminal code for the CMM in MMBASIC.

Do-able, but I would just go for the existing VT100 unit - why re-invent the wheel?(rhetorical)
