My operating profile in my startup is gone and has reverted back to a default. I have the profile saved several places but I can't get it moved to the start up page. How do I fix this...

Renamed them and it still won't work...
My regular email is midwestcypress@gmail.com

Ok - been playing with it.
When I load your macro it doesn't wait for anything... just runs !

More info in a few minutes.

On the overall movement thing - I do not have an encoder or dro....
But If I tell it to move 120" it moves 120" measured with a tape measure. In reality it probably moves a few thousands less. Seems like every step it loses just a bit and since we are doing a lot of steps it adds up .
The Macro works if I put in a sleep that is longer than the drill cycle and I do see that it is getting the input from the end of drill cycle..

Instead of doing the repeat on this I would like a loop that just repeats will X number of times...

Here is the entire script.
We also just had to add .003 to each 3" movement and .005 to each 5" movement or we had an accumulated error at the end of the cycle that was nearly .125.
MMMMM?  Is that normal?

Tried this and it didn't wait for the driller to get done before it moved.
If I leave the spaces in there it won't run at all...
MMMMMM?
Seems like I can always get the output signal to work - I just can't get it to wait for the input signal from the driller to start moving again.
