I have the Wixey digital fence read out and am not satisfied with it at all. It does not hold calibration and jumps when I move the fence. I am thinking of upgrading to the iGaging 32" read out.

Does anyone have one what is your opinion of it?

Does it hold calibration?

Does it jump when you move the fence?

How much of an issue is it when you need remove the fence from the saw?

I do not believe it will present any issues with the Biesemeyer square fence tube, correct?

Any other issues?

Thanks

Have you adjusted the pickup sensor on the Wixey? If too far away from the green strip you can have these problems. Take it off the extrusion and very slightly back off the adjustments. It only needs a few thousandths. To much and it will rub and wear out.

I did try to adjust it. It is loose on the rail and there is not more adjustment. I am waiting to hear back from Wixey on a new (at my cost) DRO. It is several years old and has had some issues since new.
