TT4 lathe probe installation ver?

Hi,
Im trying to install a TT4 probe on my lathe.
Im running ver 4.64 and the description and specifications documentation says use CNC12 V4.5+ so I should be ok...
but I don't see the "TOOL TOUCH OFF TYPE" TT4 its not listed in the wizard.

Can I use KP3 as the probe selection?

Thanks,
John

Re: M400 pendant for sale

I don't see any serial # on the pendant. This was never used, I would like to get $100 and free shipping.

I'm OK with removing the A axis from the DRO display so thanks for the work around.

Acorn 1340 CNC Lathe coversion

This is a lathe conversion that uses the Acorn controller. I replaced all lead screws with ball screws. On the X axis I replaced the dove tail ways with 25mm linear bearings.

Re: Configuring Acorn for 0-5V spindle control

I need to do this very procedure for 5v control. What is the file name that the changes need to be made in?
