Greetings,
I am running 3 machines in my shop with csmio products. And I would like to implement auto tool zero on my machines.
Currently, I am using win10, the most stable Mach3 version recommended on the CSLAB website.
Yesterday I tried to implement the tool length sensor on one of them. But as soon as the tool touches the probe I get this error:
Error on line 107 - Internal error <WaitForMove>
If i rune the HiddenScript.m1s-mach3 VB script editor and set the run command I get the hit probe ok and the value. But as soon as I close the window and push the button auto tool zero I get the error above. Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong?
here is the code that I'm using from cs lab website.

Thanks in advance.
