TT-1 configuration file setup, for Acorn Control.

Post by Bob »

Trying to setup a conductive touch block on my router, using the new Acorn controller. I setup pin 7 as my input using the wizard and the touch sequence works. But now I'm wondering how to tell the controller how thick my touch block is. I've been a Mach user for years and am trying to relate this to the method that is used in Mach.

are you using the tt-1 to measure tools or set a part zero or both?

Yes it's a homemade block and measured 3"x3x0.745"thick.
Is there a location in the config menu to set the block height?
We have found in the config. Parm #71 that mentions detector height. It was set to zero.
