Title: Mach3 XML Reader Bug
Post by: peter.steele on March 08, 2020, 12:33:57 AM
This isn't going to stop me from being able to use Mach4, but it's an interesting quirk that might have caused me some setup issues if it hadn't popped up in an incredibly obvious place...

If you notice in the two screenshots below, the XML reader is getting the pin assignments in the wrong lines.

Looks like the issue might be only with the list of inputs- the column on the left should start with X++, then go to X-- and X Home (as the other axes do) but X++ is missing, so everything after is offset by 1 row.

Looks very much like you have solved the mystery  ;)

Not a mystery so much as a warning to others who might be using it- the same issue was observed on multiple computers.

Turns out the list of outputs is also missing the first item, so everything there is offset by one row as well.
