and fyi...x1,x10,x100 the buttons on the vcp can/will work in conjunction as well

Will the new version auto store the tool offset in the library? I changed to z zero button to Z Reference so my brain understands. I Ken im not sure what you mean. Reference in our lexicon is not a part zero. any version of CNC12 will "auto store" the tool offsets, this is nothing new. :D

yeah. that is a good idea, i'm so used to just editing the .hom file, but that would be easy to add to the wizard homing menu. its on the list

make a photo album so all the photos are in one spot and the link never changes, its a very useful thing to do for your project.

reading marc's comments i thought he was asking for a virtual estop button which osha isn't going to like. No, not at all.

the ether1616 manual has examples on how to wire up such a configuration. it would be the same using Acorn outputs.

ok then, we'll take a look at your setup.

need more info. photos of machine/motors/ wiring cabinet etc..

there are thousands of Acorn Clearpath systems running great so lets not be too quick to point fingers

also you are using some pretty old CNC12 software would be a good time to install the latest.

the reset button is not an estop.
the vcp reset button is resetting software, CNC12, clearing fault messages etc.
a virtual 'estop' isn't an actual estop and can not be labeled as such
