What are the model numbers in ALL 5 drives?
I thought there were 3 axis of servo drives and two steppers or no?
Remember there is an LDCN utility to configure the drives as well

You can open the macros from within the FC configuration utility

Where is this set up file? I went page by page thru all of the settings saving each. Yes I could open them but couldnt copy or save them. All of the drives are the ones mentioned above. LS182SE-1210's

when in FC, you can click on file, save setup to save a copy of it. You may also see the default location.
Just look at the C: drive with Windows File manager
It is on the C: drive and I believe in a DATA folder

I believe so, make a copy of it and open with a text editor like Notepad++

I was able to open the file with notepad as you stated. There is info similar to my xml file when using Mach.
However it appears much larger.
I also copied each macro and saved on a thumb drive.
Looking thru the tool change file/macro (and not understanding it) I dont see the physical location of the tool change.
I couldnt find these files anywhere within the C drive. Only when I actually selected the macros 1 by 1 on the FC screen.
