I am trying out the iPad MachPendant app. It appears to work really well except for a couple of buttons. On is the 'AUTO TOOL ZERO' button. This button is supposed to remotely press the same button in Mach. The problem is that that button needs to have code behind it. In standard Mach screens there ...
