Yayy.. i can now choose different tool numbers and offset them, i got wrong offset thu but i guess i made something wrong... at least PP is not hanging, What i did was i copied the tools sections...

I tried the sim versions and there were no problems there, so i doubt there should be necessary to reinstall, it got to be something with the configuration files most likely... :(

i managed to update now, but as you said, no change.. starting to think that samco might be on to something... didnt think i needed the tool change rows because i dont use it when i have manual tool...

PWC: The spindle-encoder-count will be 100 on one run, the spindle-index-enable is false, but the program doesnt even get to the point that it have turned on the spindle, its stuck on T 0101

PWC: Halmeter starts, how do i use it and to what? :)

1. Counter on status page counts -?

2. was trying some conversational threading, the program starts, Z is going home then everything stops like the picture, like its waiting for something?
...

Oh really... so the fact that i have nothing on B is not a problem in some way?

so A is counting continously 100 step / rev, B does nothing and Z blinks 1/rev, is that how its supposed to be or...

i now have a 100 PPR configured as 400 on encoder A, and a 1 PPR configured on Z, the leds are blinking in PP and the counter is adding up on the status page biu it never gets reseted to 0, just...

yes i have a oscilloscope.. will try to measure those cables tonight if i got the time.
