Re: Tool change odd behavior
Hi Keith, I will have to re-visit this at a later date, won't be around my machine for a bit, will give me time to read up on custom macros so I can probably recreate what I had. I am running the pre-release 64bit version.

Tool change odd behavior
I must have been using a custom M6 macro for tool changes. Nothing fancy, just stops the spindle and a window pops up and tells me which tool to put into the spindle, press cycle start to resume. That is how it used to work... Now, it only tells me the first tool to insert with a window. The second ...

Re: Can't use X10 or X100 on MPG if probe is setup on inputs
Not a total waste of time, I wanted to move the system over to the SSD from the slow spinner.

I am nuking the install, reinstalling windows on the SSD, and will do a fresh install of 5.08

Re: Can't use X10 or X100 on MPG if probe is setup on inputs
Anyone have any idea on this? Should I just nuke the installation and start over from scratch?

Re: Can't use X10 or X100 on MPG if probe is setup on inputs
I spent all day reading everything I could, and yes, followed the probe manual before making a post on here. This has been an issue for a while now

Can't use X10 or X100 on MPG if probe is setup on inputs <resolved>
There must be a bug, been pulling my hair out. I am using a Drewtronics probe that is NC. I am also using the poor mans detection circuit with a toggle switch. No matter what I do, The X10 and X100 settings on the MPG will not move any axis, only the X1, without a probe plugged in. If I flip my swit...

Re: Can't get Z offsets to work
Well, still can't get it to work the way I want. The danger of how I am now doing it is if I ever damage my probe, I have to reset all of my tools.

Re: Can't get Z offsets to work
I figured it out, but it isn't how I used to do it. I use my probe for setting Z height on the workpiece. I know what I did wrong, I had some random number set in Zref. Fixed it by making Zref what my probe detected, set the probe height in the offset menu as 0, and each tool the difference from the...
