Please post a fresh zip report and a pdf of your wizard config (ctrl+p on any page in the wizard).

Most relevant parameters for Acorn are set by the Wizard. As long as you saved the wizard configuration (pdf or screenshots) and are able to reproduce the Wizard configurations, you won't need to change any by hand.

Make sure when installing any version of CNC12 to have the control board powered on and connected to the PC via Ethernet. And follow the install instructions carefully ( https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/downloads/centroid_cnc12_download/cnc12_v5.0_install_instructions.pdf ). What version of ...

What exactly is making you think that the CNC12 screen and tool library files are different versions? Your screenshot and the .txt are identical except for the fact that CNC12 reports the X offset's diameter and the .txt reports it in Radius (and to one extra decimal of precision).

If you want to wire multiple signal wires to one common input, you really should be using a relay. That way, the signals are isolated from each other, and it emulates the signals being wired in series (i.e. if one faults out, the chain is broken and the input sees the fault. And if the relay block y...

Right, but if the TT is set to inhibit the spindle while detect is on, it will trip the same fault "Remove probe from spindle" even though the issue lies in the TT being connected.

In the wizard, what are the settings for "inhibit spindle when detect is on" for both your probe and tt?
