I think I have a Custom VCP problem I can't figure out. This is on an AllinOneDC. I have parameter 192 set to equal 7 which brings up circular pocket one shot. I'm using the Aux5 button, Skin event 9, and changed the graphic. This is the first time I used it to actually cut with and I want to use it again, however when I press the Aux5 key, it brings up my previous info in an intercon screen but not the original screen with the help graphics. It doesn't seem to reset after using it once.

For better or worse, that is the intended behavior of the one-shot canned cycles: they retain the values you last used, in the expectation that the next time you use it, you will probably be doing the same feature, or something similar.

You should be able to show or hide the help graphics by pressing F5.

The only way I can get the help screen to appear is to go into intercon thru the Cam button then Icn button then it loads the circle oneshot program. Then I can turn on the help screen.

Hello All,
So I just updated to 5.22 and to my surprise buttons on the VCP are now changed.

Spindle Clock wise, spindle counter clockwise and spin break are now gone.

I will figure it out but I don't understand why.

PFM Dave
