Hi Marty
Thanks for the reply.
I do have the system running following the above procedure. Now looking at the VCP and the code behind it.
There are a few things that I would like to change. Do you know of a way to print the current VCP for reference??

You found the VCP 2.0 Manual?

Hi Marty
I do have the VCP 2.0 manual and have been studying it. I have made a number of small changes to my VCP but am confused abot the "skin_event_number" and how those numbers relate to PLC functions. Also have again watched cnckeiths video (part 1) on the VCP. Am wondering when he plans part 2, however I imagine he has been a bit busy with the 4.6 release.
There is one curious thing about the install. I have done the router install a couple of times and each time the install creates the folder "cncm" rather than "cncr" and installs the system there. Any idea why?

cnc12 Router uses a directory named cncm since so many paths in the base code cnc12 software use cncm as the home directory.
read over page 18,19,20 and 21 for skin event number explanation and examples.

If you already have a mill pro license do you have to pay again to get the router license?

Go to this link: https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_di ... oller.html
Down to the Acorn Router License it says:
"If you previously purchased Mill Pro you can for a limited time upgrade to Router Pro (#15077) for $79

If you previously purchased Mill Digitizing Bundle you can for a limited time upgrade to Router Digitizing Bundle (#15078) for $79"
