Thanks for the reply. It really is an excellent screen and set of new tools making my machine a more consistent and accurate setting z.

Simple as that
Hi All this is my first post, Just completed my router build and trying out blue probing screens.
I am using a Logitrol USB pendant control which has a joystick an buttons to pretty much emulate the mach 3 MPG when you hit TAB button plus feed rate and spinde speed.
Since I installed Blue probing screen, I have lost the functionality of my "slow jog" up/down buttons on my pendant control. They worked fine with the 1024.set but stopped with the blue or blue probing screens.
Any advice on how to fix this? All else works great (step mode button, spindle buttons etc) on the pendant, just these two not working.
All the best and Thanks
Jeff
Is the blue screenset the only one that has all the features included or has one based on the vanilla screenset been made. I really don't like the blue screenset, I find it difficult to use with a touchscreen. If one hasn't been made then I 'll make my own but no point if someone has already done it.
Regards, Jeff.
Just a quick question.....
Where do I put in my offset for the laser zeroing?
Jeff.
You enter that in button script.
If you do not know hw its done shoot me pm
hot keys could not be set up for those functions in blue screen.
I have added fuctionality to blue screen I have build it from scratch.
Only if you were closer we could do phone tech support.

You need to edit script for laser zero.
just downloaded the latest version of your toolsetter macro,installed it fine, entered my tool change position and fixed plate position. if i click on the initial tool change button, it sets the tool on the movable plate and then sets it on the fixed plate, but most of the time when moving from the movable t fixed position the machine stops as if it has stalled, and then continues, but with the motors sounding very rough as if they are going about half the speed mach says they are, and completely misses the fixed position. any ideas what could be causing this. if i stop the machine once it has "stalled" and then jog it it moves fine. help please:)
