Re: WCS zero X and Y macro
Unless I am missing something and you have used all available WCS depending on your licensing, why not allocate one (e.g. WCS6) just for the jig. Then you are ready to go as and when required but still retaining the flexibility of the other WCS settings for other work. Advantage is no programing req...

Re: Password requirements
Sounds like the OP needs to review his security - Workshop CCTV, sensors, alarm, strong admin password, disconnected LAN etc. If he is that concerned perhaps surround the whole workshop with a full faraday cage

Re: 50% Rapid Button
I have a similar question along this line. My machine rapid is way too fast to control with buttons at full speed.

Re: Post Processor for Aspire 4.0
I'm using Aspire v10.5 and although I have slightly modified the CentroidArcs PP to suit my own requirements, the original was apparently dated 2007. It therefore goes back many iterations.

DP-4 Fast feed rate with short stylus
I have a 20mm Renishaw carbide/ ruby available for a specific job coming up and do not want to damage the Probe.
