Compare lines 109 and 110 with line 112. Looks like there was an errant cursor placement and a backspace/enter. Edit it to be like line 112. ;) Yep, change the wording to your liking. The fast/slow probing values in the wizard will apply, and also the location of your fixed touch off, G30P3 (I think...

But for the moment, can we talk further about the custom mfunc44.mac? That sounds perfect, IF the normal 'Auto Z to Plate' works as it currently does (with movable TT device), and the 'subsequent' option would measure at my designated fixed location. That would be perfect for my needs. Yep, we can ...

There were a few syntax errors in your mfunc6.mac file. Some missing brackets, and by commenting out the second touch, you are left in the location of the TT thickness when the G92 Z[ABS[#9071]] is set. Try the attached fixed version to see if it work for you. It did for me. Note, I only fixed it fo...

#159 is the non-volatile variable used to hold the length offset value for subsequent tool changes and remains between power ups. Can you attach a Wizard screenshot pdf? Alt-P when in the Wizard. Also, you need to update to the latest version, I see you're on 5.06, and it makes it difficult for us t...

Just for fun, try changing line 150 of your macro to the following. If Auto Z to plate works (mfunc44.mac), then this should as well. G92 Z[ABS[#9071]] ;Set Z position to 0 + detector height stored in parameter 71 Your macro is similar to one that I've used in the past, I'll take a closer look when ...

Yes, if your buttons are normally open momentary buttons, you have to set them to NC in the wizard, or else the VCP buttons will be inoperable. Never understood this, but that's the way it is. We have NC, NO, and State When Triggered.

Never mind I figured it out on my own. Thanks anyways Not sure where your actual home location for your machine is (front, back, left, right), but your machine coordinates and the working coordinates (WCS #1) are the same and with the soft limits you have set, a G1X1 or Y1 is beyond the positive so...

Keith, what version are you running there? 5.08 does not behave that way. I can cycle the physical button and/or the input and never get the VCP reset button to change state.

With 5.01rc5, it works as expected, and as desired.

Testers.... This is in regard to the action and state of the onscreen RESET button. If memory serves me correctly, when an alarm or the ESTOP was triggered in earlier versions the VCP RESET button state was changed to RESET TRIPPED. This action does not occur with the current release v5.08. Checked...

Risked it for the biscuit, RC4 is working good so far.
