Hi all,

?

I¡¯m just trying to set up a small modelmaker lathe with Mach4 and a Pokeys 57CNC board

X and Z axis are running, homing works, Spindle is turning CW and CCW and so, I¡¯m already quite happy.?
?
(Mach4 version is 4.2.0.4612, just for reference)


Now, I¡¯m a little confused about tool offsets:
(using the ?Tool offsets in Mach4 Lathe¡° document)

The X offset DRO in Diagnostic screen is always showing ?0.000¡°, although there¡®s tool and offset selected.

Question: is this a bug or a feature?






Have a nice Sunday,
Konrad
