Solved: Apparently the +24V supply cable for Inputs 1-4 on the Ether1616 board was the issue. I made a new cable and everything is working fine now. Thanks for the info about the Ether1616. The information about the "common uses" was easily skipped over in the manual.

Do not use 1616 for a probe, that works way better on the inputs on the Acorn, because they are faster.

1616 is for inputs and outputs that are not time critical.

I was getting the MPU REQUESTED RESEND error in my logs combined with imperfect circles on my AVID Benchtop PRO with Centroid Acorn. I discovered the coupler on one of my motors was loose and fixed that pretty easily. I bought a new ethernet cable and tried various cable routing methods to keep it ...

I was getting errors in my logs with the MPU requesting resends. I tried everything that I found on this forum. I solved the issue by using the USB to Ethernet adapter that came with my laptop. The problem went away and has not come back.

I'll try it. I'm assuming that when you press "Park" it puts the tool away then moves to the park location, is that right?

Where return P4 is set to my desired park location

You added this to your mfunc6 or your park?

Hello, all. I have an ATC system on my router that I've been setting up and I'm looking for some advice on how I can setup a macro or edit my current macro to put the last tool away that was used during a job when the job is complete. Currently, when the job is complete the system returns to Z zero ...
