Thanks Hood !

i had the same issue with profiles. if i made one to use same setting, mach3 didn't
have the same settings. i HAD to use THEIR profile from the mach3 loader. even tried
to make a link with that profile but it didn't load everything. i "think" it's about the xml
AND the set file. hope this helps.

John, what's the SetVar 1 and 2 ? can't see where they are used.
and in sim mode, it goes pass the max distant without warning.
maybe it needs a signal to work
Thanks

SetVar (1, -1) 'Maximum probing distance is set here
SetVar (2, .75) 'Retract height is set here

but i don't understand the #2. is that SetVar(2 , .75) set at start?

SetOEMDRO (802,PlateThickness) 'Set Z-Axis DRO to Touch Plate thickness
Code "G0 Z #2" 'Retract off Touch Plate to the set height     <-------------------
While IsMoving () 'Wait until task has been completed
