How have you turned anti dive off ?   I`m struggling to understand what values to use for the adjust rate

You use Mach4 or Mach3? For mach4 you go to configure/plugins/regfile and there are all the options for THC and more, you find the nf/thc/AntiDiveState and change it to 0 so it be disabled.

Adjust rate is the % of the feedrate you want the TCH to make corrections on Z Axis. If your Z axis velocity is 2000mm/min and you put 10% adjust rate then your THC will correct with 200mm/min.

Are more options but if you use Mach3 aren't for you and better ask Mach3 topics for help.

Thanks for the explanation, I use Mach4 but notice the Regfile doesnt match what I have set in the GUI ?     in fact its in Imperial and not Metric I will have to do some experimenting.

Check this nf/thc/DeadBandWidth default is 5, if measured voltage is -/+5V then the THC is disabled. I have it to 1 but my electronics measure very low voltage 0-5V.

Yes the default values is inches but Mach4 not understand metric/inches, just put the values you want.

You have to set the property of the Actual Voltage DRO to the Pokeys PlasmaSens HV register.
