Will there be a router manual or will the Mill manual be used for the Routers? If the mill manual will be used for the router, it may be a good idea to have a router/plasma table graphic for the X-Y-Z movements. It may make the X-Y-Z orientation for a gantry machine a little more clear than someone ...

I wired my Y+ limit switch and set it up in the Wizard. No harm, just an added safety margin.

How do I configure the motor to recover from lost steps. Refer to the SDSK manual, page 75 for position recovery. The reference voltage for the clear paths is recommended to be +5VDC, there was a discussion and thread about this and resistor values https://centroidcncforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=47292...

Do you have your Clear Path settings configured to recover from lost steps?

Do you have the latest configuration for resistors on the step/direction/HLFB for the clearpath?

I noticed that with one of the update packs for Windows 10 Update changed and won't allow you to shut off updates completely - IIRC 45 days is the max you can set it to automatically check and install updates. I set my update settings to max intervals and install window during graveyard when I know ...

I am not compensating for the machine itself however when I V-carve I can get .5mm discrepancies in locations of material that isn't flat or has areas that are hard to notice by eye they are not flat. I guess I will have to create the tool as no one else has this problem. Maybe not too many out the...

It would be nice to add the ability to run a job from the graphing screen rather than reverting back to the home screen to press 'run'

Do you have the resistors installed per the latest Acorn/SDSK documentation for Step/direction/Enable?
