Current 4.99 beta is the only lathe software with working Y, I used B on 4.82

But wait for next Beta with bugfree C-Axis integration for Acorn.

B worked fine with Acorn4, 4th axis in Wizard linear B and MDI should go.

Test 499R4 pls. If there is a bug in DB25 for 4th axis, report and it will be fixed also in R5

And you can use Y
