I have finally got my new all in one lathe screen to work like i want, big thanks to Graham Waterworth and Klaus for their help
the tool wear gets entered as the difference between what the part measures and what it should be, the click on calculate and the value will be added or subtracted from the tool wear, so if the part measures 1mm smaller the tool must move +1 so u enter 1 in the dro and click calc and the value will be subtracted from the tool wear
that probably sound complicated but it works simple if u want the tool to move positive enter a positive value and visa verse
i have also added a feed rate override % dro, the figure change but during a cut it has no effect on the feed rate, i don't know if this is only related to lathe or if it is related to the screenset (using 3.042.032)
can someone please do some testing 4 me
thanks Friedrich
