All,

I'm having a bit of an issue.  If I put a user DRO on a screen it displays zero.  If I put my mouse on it the pointer turns to a hand and I can click on it to highlight it.  I can type in a value and I see the value.  When I hit enter, the value doesn't remain in the field... it returns to zero.

I can hook this thing up to a brain and the value gets passed through, but the DRO doesn't keep the value I assigned.  Is there somethign special I have to do to make this work?  I want it to function like the axis DROs when the machine co-ordinates are turned off.  you can change the DRO value and have it stay that way.  That way I know what it is set at.

What DRO# did you assign it? If it's an OEM DRO it may be that you are trying to change a DRO output, which it won't allow you to do. Check that you are using a valid DRO #.
