did some more digging it turns out that virginmedia had installed web safe nanny software , so that's been disabled now all is sweetness and light , and behold the FTP server is now able to be viewed

so any UK virginmedia customers check your web safe setting if you nee FTP access Tony site

no go here as well

tried safari, chrome  and edge

I think its been locked down to devs who have a ftp server urid

DAZ and tweakie may both have one

it will not connect as guest just times out, put your account urid in and it just times out

so for the great unwashed it would seem to be a no go unless Newfangled relent and open it back up

as the FTP link on the download page fills the url as a guest it will fail if they do not want us to see the contents then why not remove the links and reference to the FTP site

so I have tried on a iMac and winds laptop Both with the same result

its great when Warp9 put up a new plugin 222 and state compiled against 3835 but all I can get is 3804

I will be interested in comments

I think that reverse check box him no worky at least on mine with a ESS it don’t just change the step dir from active low to high or high to low in other words if it low make it high if it’s high make it low

That needs fixing before you go any further else bad things will happen when you run gcode
Ref all

Use MDI to tell Mach what tool you are using eg T1 M6
WCS. To put it in its most basic least accurate way put a tool in the spindle jog over until the center of the cutter is over the corner of your work and nearly touching the work ,then zero XYZ. DRO’s now you have the WCS set and the tool length set . For that job only
