What did I miss
« on: July 11, 2013, 06:35:56 PM »
I've designed a screen layout with the designer here:
http://www.kd-dietz.com/klausphp/pages/eng/machscreen/description/ms_description.html

When I load the screen set in Mach3, none of the buttons work.  I've tried copying buttons from other screen sets to ensure they are created properly, but no dice.  There most be a compile step or some initial step that I'm missing.  Please help.  I even tried taking the 1024 set and deleting the buttons I don't need.  When I load it nothing wroks anymore.

Do you have a reset button? You need to push reset to turn off the reset LED before anything will work.

I did include a reset button, but no red LED.  If I hit it once, nothing works.  If I hit it twice, nothing works.  That should cover any states it would be in.

I'm not positive but I think you actually need the reset LED to change the "state" of the rest.

I'm not home at the moment or I'd check for you, but try loading the reset LED(not just any LED) and see if that fixes it for you.

Hi,

if you could send me your screenset I would have a look at it.

So I take it that adding the RESET LED didn't work?

if you set the reset button on page0 it should work. I will send you an email for more details.
