i have the touch probe setup on one channel of course..and working properly.... right now when i activate the probe the toolsetter light comes on as well....

can i set the tool setter to a separate input so the toolsetter is separate from the touchprobe..

thanks for the wakeup dave...its been a while since i looked at the manual...as soon as i looked at the section it all came back... to be honest the NC toolsetter i was using was giving me great results...variations in tool height measurements of +-.0002.... i can live with it... i will put it back the way it was... and move one to adding rpm board and hooking the vfd up to c62 so i dont need the vfd plugin anymore...hoping to do rigid tapping on the mill...

thanks for the reply dave
