Thanks, that did it regarding how I want it to work but I'm still getting the bad xml message even after renaming the file...

Are you using the parallel port or some other external device? Do your choices of brains stick when you restart Mach or do you have to enable again? Can you attach your xml and I will see if I get that problem when I use it.

When I restart the brains are disabled, enabling them give that message but they work after. I'm connected to the controller via USB (Industry Controls MCB-1). See brain attached.

I run brains with IC and a Scorpion so IC is not the problem. Have you got version 4.01.030?

No, I have 4.001.031 - I updated the mach.exe file a few weeks ago when I was having issues with a dubious soft limit warning that I'm still have half the time.

Ah yes I remember.
Should be fine then, going to load your brain and see if it throws an error here.

Just loaded 031 and its fine for me, dont have a MCB1 so possibly that is the reason.
