Thanks for the replies. I will be returning to the project when it gets warmer in the workshop.

I am also going to try a touch screen computer to reduce the need for extra inputs. The problem is , it has windows 7 so I don't know if it will work as well. (have smoothstepper installed.

I then have 2 more mach projects in hand. Denford Mirac & triac which should be more straightforward.

Don.

After using the open file icon for a few days, it started working normally without changing colour settings.

Have just installed in a second identical computer with the same problem. I will try waiting for a response & see what happens.

Thanks Dave,

That is a lot easier than I managed to do it last time (as far as I can remember)

       " if you put this VB code in a button it will open the jog settings  doOembutton(323)"

   How do you do this in Screen4?  I manged it once, but went back to SCR4 & cannot see how I did it.

Klaus

Could not find this setting in W7, but as all other onscreen buttons were working,so continued by just using these.

A day or two later the problem resolved itself without any input from me.

Thank you for Machprofile, it has proved most useful,   Don

I am trying to run it under Windows7 64 bit. Seems to work unless I click one of the dropdown menus (File, Edit, View, Default Help) at which point it locks up & stops responding.

I am trying to use an msi all-in-one (desktop) computer with touch screen & smartstepper.

Thanks Andrew, Jeff,

 I have swapped over computers at the moment but will see to it when I swap back.

Hi, I have the same problem.

Where is the file location?

I am using a Mini Ipac that is not equipped with a ps2 connector.

After much frustration,Have read elsewhere that the keygrabber ipac prograqmming utility only works via the ps2 connector.

I have tried a usb to ps2 adapter plug on the usb lead & the programming utility throws a crc error.

Via the usb port keygrabber is unable to establish a link with the Ipac.

I also have problems entering codes into "hid keys" on keygrabber. Will work if I enter hid keys under "keyboard keys", but without being unable to program the keygrabber with enough non conflicting codes, I cannot make use of this either.

Will it be best to get Ipac2 & ps2 cable?

Has anyone else had similar problems?

Thanks, Don
