Our gControl Panel Computer is a touch-screen interface designed to be part of the full ecosystem for CNC machine control, working with gSender, AltMill and LongMill CNCs, and the SuperLongBoard family of controllers. It’s also a fully functional Windows computer that can run other programs, connect peripheral devices like a mouse or keyboard, even support an external display, and send commands.
It can control any CNC machine already compatible with gSender, as well as run any other Windows-based CNC control software. When you purchase gControl, you’ll also receive a mounting solution that works with all AltMills and LongMills, as well as many other workbenches.
Mounting bracket included. Please specify your AltMill size for the correct bracket in the order notes at checkout (4×8 or 4×4/2×4)
gControl will ship in its own carton and may arrive separately from other orders.
The gControl Panel Computer is a fully functional Windows 11 (64-bit) PC designed to control your CNC machine and run gSender, connecting seamlessly with your AltMill, LongMill, or other compatible CNC systems. Its touchscreen interface lets you send commands, jog axes, adjust settings, and run jobs, while also functioning as a standard Windows computer that can connect to other devices and run additional software.
The gControl is compatible with CNC systems that use USB or Ethernet-based motion controllers.
To ensure smooth operation, your CNC system should: Communicate with the Windows PC via USB or Ethernet.
Run control software that supports Windows 11 (64-bit).
Systems that rely solely on parallel port connections are not supported unless upgraded with a USB motion controller. For the best experience, we recommend confirming software and driver support with your CNC or motion controller manufacturer before use.

Unless you already have a spare laptop to operate your CNC, this is the most cost-effective way to operate. Most laptops I found that matched the specs were double the price.

Does the job well. I was really impressed with this all in one solution. The touch screen seems to lack a little bit of sensitivity such that sometimes what should be a single press turns into a very long continuous move. Surprising the first time that happens.

G sender is a whole different world from the code sending software that I previously used, plus the added tools for surfacing, squaring and calibration are fantastic.
