Not still clear the problem with the coordinates system. No answer to my questions, but the upgrade?
- Never used v1.84, and there have been a number of upgrades sine then.
- In Mill there is no radius / diameter selection as in Turn, so when you use the calibration it makes no difference. The Mill should be in metric units also and make sure that your axes are not scaled.
So just do a move of say 10 mm and when the moved distance is correct as compared to the commanded distance accept the steps per unit and they will be
saved to current profile. So if your digital the readout is diameter then it should agree with Mach.
When you go back to using the lathe set you will see that the steps per unit were changed. Your configuration in ports and pins >lathe options should be diameter.
Make sure you have selected Program or Part coordinates in the manual screen of Turn. If you have selected Machine coordinated the dipslayed DRO value will be
1/2 the commanded as machine coord displays in terms of absolute and radius.
I am thinking that is where you are getting confused, but, like i said i never used that old version and can't say what is does.
