DDCSV1.1 4 Axis controller

I recently purchased a DDCSV3.1 4 axis controller that I intend to use on a CNC router that I'm building. I got it off Ebay and the pictures in the listing had RATTM MOTOR splashed across them.
I was just wondering in you had any idea how much of this thread is applicable to that controller. I don't know if I've got the patience to wade through all 40 pages. Any recommendations?

Hello Don,
while I myself could only really confirm this for the DDCSV1.1 and the RMHV2.1, the RATTM Motor branded controllers appeared to always be just relabeled DDCSV controllers. I do believe that this is still true today. At least the firmware updates are, as far as I know, still fully compatible.
Cheers,
Benedikt

I guess what I'm asking is do I need to do anything to this controller besides configuring it for my machine? I would assume that since it's brand new, that it should have the latest firmware already installed - or is this a dangerous assumption?
I've downloaded the manual from your site, and have been going through it to get familiar with the controller.

You don't have to change anything. It's advisable to update the controller, but even that is completely optional.
Just set up your parameters on the controller or on http://config.pandora-cnc.eu/ and connect the wires.
That's all you need to do to get it working.
Cheers,
Benedikt

Thanks Benedikt, I was worried that there were a bunch of patches/fixes that I would need to install.
Configuring the controller for my machine I wasn't worried about, that's a given for any self built CNC. Installing a bunch of fixes to the controller on the other hand... That was something I hoped that I didn't have to do.
