Everything works. It was not optimal for my ...

So I have the Y screw comp set with a "false backlash" of 2mm, i.e. set one column to 50.0 the other to 52.

The screw comp affects left = primary, it does not affect the paired one.
Also, must we restart when changing screw comp tables or Y/N flag for screw comp?
Is the protocol to select screw ...

Ok,
So I will reverse one within the Clearpath control side, then set Centroid side to both same way.
This is easy enough. I'll give it a try.

Is the screw comp Y/N selector supposed to be enabled for both Y and Ysl, or ...
