Are these errors happening all the time or only when the cutter is active?

I use CNC12 with VCarve Desktop and can confirm that "centroid mm" works fine.

To the OP, if you contact Clearpath, they can help you tune it, and can even log into your computer remotely if necessary.

………It seems like a bug to disable the WMPG in some way if the WMPG isn't powered up before CNC12. Anyone else have this happen? "... I only power mine up when I need to use it after cnc12 is already running and I even turn it off and on during the day and it always connects. Check the USB port...

I believe that you're correct about: leakage circuit breaker = GFI. The one possible issue to be aware of is that some GFI breakers are sensitive to high-frequency noise on the wires, like that produced by VFD. If the breaker keeps tripping with no apparently current leakage problem, it's probably t...

Started up CNC12 v5.06 like always but got a surprise, see pic. Acknowledged the message and continued booting up CNC12, only to find that the WMPG interface was partly disabled. It could receive data but could not command router position. Powering down CNC12 and power it back on fixed the issue and...

Yup, sure enough, everyone was correct! Jog is back up and running after adding ProbeProtect to the last open input port... hope I don't need more...

Noctura is the go-to brand for quiet PCs but I don't know if they'll have a drop-in replacement. Worth a look. Also, how much a cooling fan is needed for the braking resistor is directly dependent upon how often the braking resistor is used, and how much energy is being absorbed. Point being, you &q...

Domenic Pascucci. He was very helpful and took time to work with me to resolve the issue - which appeared to be that wheel pulses weren't getting through, but the jog buttons worked fine. Does the probe-protect feature affect one or both of these functions? he must have overlooked probe protection,...

Thank you, Swissi. I'll be able to check this out once the WMPG arrives. The jog buttons that I was referring to are on the WMPG, but I assume the same applies to those on the VCP. Since my last post, I added a jumper to the 3D touch probe connector so that when it's plugged in, it grounds ProbeDete...
