No. I am afraid the answer is not yet.

It after waiting too long for a reply to my public post, I eventually sent mkullman a private message.

Fortunately, he responded to that one.
Unfortunately, I received his code only a few days ago, and I've not had time to dive into it yet.

Ask me again in two or three weeks. I imagine I will need time to learn a few things along the way.

ok thank you for the information!
In June we, the company I work for, will receive a milling machine (wabeco) and we do the cnc part ourself. We decided to use uccnc so we can run it on a windows based computer.
For pendant we would like to use the WHB04B instead of the WHB04.

Hi,

have you found a way to write a driver for the XHC-WHB04B-4?

Best regards,

Luc

Hi - I can report that progress is being made - but there is not much to show so far.
To date - I have undertaken an intensive (at times) self stury in programming in C#, since that seems to be the language of choice for UCCNC work. The worst part of it is not learning the C# language (very similar to C-C++) but learning the Microsoft Visual Studio.
Anyway - I can report that this step has been mostly accomplished.

Next, probably this very weekend, I start writing (stealing code) for accessing the USB. Immediately upon the heels of that I will start interfacing with the XHC-WHB04B-4 as per the information I got from makullman.

I should have more to report in about a week.

P.S.: Sorry if I'm taking too long. Unfortunately, there are a number of other items making claims upon my attention.

Hi all,

Im working on driver for WHB04B-6 but I belive it will work with WHB04B-4 too,

here is the code:
github.com/smalla/linuxcnc

the MPG is working,
now Im working on the display section, as it is way too different from xhc-hb04

suggestions are always welcome :)
