Help!!Why is CNC12 turning more and more functions overloaded?

Hello, my name is Stephan,
I am the 2nd or 3rd person who has converted his lathe to CNC12 with C axis and driven tools....
However
I wanted to start tomorrow with my conversion of the additional Y axis
To do this I had to switch from V4.5 to 5.1.
What have you done?
cnc12 was so clear and well arranged.
You turned a tool into a toy and made important buttons smaller for the
you have overloaded it.
what is
Chamfer
turn
Facing
radius
drill
?
Cam
so do it in cam
Then I noticed even more where I couldn't find the functions or words in the new version
I urgently need help
old 4.5 new5.1
vfddirection was my spindle output1 ???
worklight out2 ??? what are the new features or words in 5.1?
VFDenalble output3 ???
If I select the Y axis on my handwheel and then turn it, the C axis moves. If I select the 4th axis, the Y axis moves
that seems very unprofessional
So I'm very grateful to you centroid but please don't make centroid worse than before
You haven't really made Centroid any better for me as an operator since 4.5, only the Y axis is great
thank you for your help beforehand
Of course I will report on the Y axis
HIHI
best regards stephan

The new buttons are one shots for easy one time operations.
You can configure the outputs as you want.
Also the VCP is easy to set up like on 4.5
And yes there is no special WMPG for turning, but I have just started to design an engraved shim for the axis selection knob.

Sorry in German gos faster
Was sind die neuen Einstellungen die man da reinhämmern muss.....Die alten Worte wo auf dem Bild sind gibt es nicht mehr........
Meine Spindel läuft nicht mehr.....zum.....
Hatte heut vor schnell eine Y Achse zu bauen.
Konnte Ich knicken.....dreht nicht ...ganzen Tag verplempert
Haufen Plunder ist jetzt auf dem Screen ....braucht keiner der halbwegs programieren kann.
Du warst doch auch schon an echten Maschinen. Hat Siemens DMG Haas sowas? Nee also....
Was denkst wie mich das juckt ob du da was gravieren tust für irgendwas.....Das muss laufen...
Die hätten einfach die Y Achse als Motor 3 und die C Achse als Motor 4 definieren sollen schon hätte das Handrad bleiben können wie es ist. Hätten Sie lieber noch eine Ansicht dazu gemacht das man sehen kann was man in Z fräsen tut. Oder besser eine 3d Ansicht. So wie bisher ist es ein Blind Flug mit dem fräsen. Wenn Y und X G2 oder G3 fahren lässt sieht aus als wäre ein Autounfall fotografiert worden....
Das genau das gerade ist der Grund warum Ich kein Acorn 6er hole.
Bis das läuft.....
Ich brauche das Ding fast jeden Tag
Danke dir trotzdem
Obwohl mir das gebastel irre auf den Sack geht.
Update ziehen und suchen was was ist das nervt mich total ab.....
Gruss Stephan

Did you by chance install a new version and restore a report from your old version?

Siemens and Haas have a lot more buttons, and you can configure none of them
Update from 4.5 :
create report
create screenshots of each wizard page
Fresh 5.1 install, set up the wizard from the screenshots
Compare custom set parameters from the report and change if needed
Takes less than 10min to get the update done and the machine running.
After this you can change the VCP for your liking, remove unused buttons ect.

Here are the reports
I probably have version 4.8
Hey Uwe
Have you been on other machines like me?
look at the picture....
Back then I couldn't find any funny buttons directly on the important buttons. Besides, that's normal...
Do you know machines in companies that don't work properly because someone had to tinker with them?
Of course you can change things about Haas and Siemens......
It's just that those who make money with their machines stay away from things like that.
Otherwise he will soon have a Haas or Siemens monitor in the house.
Or you have a machine that just sits there...
Do you see the ring?
It's not aluminum
Yesterday evening and today 2 hours 50 pieces...It has to work.
Deviation you can see that is the worst.The turning plate was finished.

the VCP is fully editable. we "load" it with typical buttons that most users would want to have, if you don't want a button, simply remove it or change it to what you want. here is how.
