Difficulty installing Mill 4.20 & compiling a PLC
Posted: Thu Jan 20, 2022 12:39 am
Dear Centroid Help Desk
Gentlemen:
I bought an allin1dc 3 axis ultimate Mill complete kit for my Bridgeport. Centroid loaded the software. Later I bought a Centroid rotary 4th axis. M10 and M11 did not work, and altho the home light and the rotary home bit both work together to the allin1 digital input and I see the home pass by, I have not been able to get the software to find Home. Recently I finally found out that I need the rotary software version and its rotary PLC.
I have the ultimate Mill license. I downloaded the mill 4.20 and installed it per your instructions. During installation I chose the standard rotary plc. Then I got a copy of Tech bulletin 173 and CAREFULLY followed its compile the Rotary PLC program TWICE!! Both times the messages indicated success, no errors.Everything appeared to be as I thought it should. Your instructions were followed carefully. When I power cycle the system, the original software is still loading ie. Standard Mill (no rotary) and plc Allin1(11).
So what instructions am I missing? Do I need a change in my license file?? How do I proceed from here?
I am attaching a 2 report files, one before compiling and the present one. Please Help !
PS....
also,When I have more questions to ask, I will need to provide my documentation. My documentation is Hundreds of MB. I tried putting in a link for which an example follows which is linking my attached report files. The attach files box would not accept a link. Can I paste the link as here below, or how do I get it to you? My wife is publishing a book of complete documentation. It is written in Pages on a Mac. Does anyone have access to a Mac? If not, here is the link to view on a PC: https://recoverit.wondershare.com/mac-t ... ws-10.html. Is this workable for you? I am a Whiz on a Mac and a klutz on a pc.
I promised Scott a copy of the book, AFTER it all works!!
Warm Regards, Mike
