Change to tool offset
« on: March 10, 2015, 07:36:57 PM »
When Mach3 was shut down the tool offset for t3 was -.2162.  When it was restarted the next day offset changed to -.1270.

What could cause this?

Is it the height offset in the tool table that is shifting?

Yes, it is the tool height.

Can you attach your xml and also your tools3.dat, and I will see if I can replicate the problem here.
You will have to zip them so the forum will accept.

Hood,

I'm getting some conflicting info from my operator so I'm suspending this thread until I get better info.

Thanks,
Quin
