Philtrueman, i would set A Axis to a linear instead of a rotary axis. Additionally, The DRO should "align" with the tool that you are on. So every 1mm should be 1 Tool (since you are in metric). For Example: Current tool = 5, DRO Reads 12.5000 Command T0808 DRO should move to 16 + the ove...

I have a lathe with an turret ATC. I have proximity switches on the X and Z axis and one on the rotary turret. When the Z and X axis home the home switch it tripped and the slides back off the switch. That is ok on the X and Z axis but as the rotary ATC turret backs up onto the ratchet with the pawl...

Hello Phil, No 3rd or 4th axes - X and Z Read you pm - still exploring VCP button assignments. best regards, I don't see any Pm in my inbox.
