Copy the cnct folder with another name on the new PC, to have the old files if needed. If you setup the new version, press ALT+P in the Wizard that will show the corresponding parameter for each field. In the report of the old system are all parameter settings, so you just can type them in the Wizar...

Re: Retrofit Acorn to full blown Acorn Six
RCCB Problem solved.
I forgot the EMI Filter in the powerline for the servos. Wired in and the RCCB is staying online.
As usual, if done right surprisingly it works

Re: Retrofit Acorn to full blown Acorn Six
C-Axis Servo is also online, well kind off. If both A6 divers are enabled the lights are going out, because the RCCB is switching off :twisted: Both alone are ok, I must get an RCCB type B with more than 30mA Temporarily I got the power for the second driver from another circuit with another RCCB. I...

Re: Retrofit Acorn to full blown Acorn Six
How exactly do you have the ZRI Home wired now? Where you able to get the OCZ output to work or are you still using the F5305S? I am using Z /Z with the F5305S I could not get the OCZ to switch an input. I have tried to set it positive and negative Inputs set to NPN and PNP none of the combinations...

Set P422=1 for the full PLC Diagnositics and look to see if the inputs are there.

Re: Probe not working in Acorn V5.20
You have not set a Probe Detect Input, but P153 =1 Probe Protection On
Since not all Inputs are used, I suggest setting one to Probe Detect and make sure this input is triggered if the Probe or TTO is plugged in.

Swap the Z /Z wires in the DB9 plug and try if it is ok.
