TNG setup
I'm trying to setup the new TNG software, but there is lot I don't understand like
* why is the edit tool table greyed out.
* how to setup the fixed tool-sensor
* how does warp work now
Has anyone already worked with this new software ?

Re: TNG setup
TNG is still in beta and some features are still "hidden".
In current beta version 2017.03.05:
- Tool table can only be set with text editor. Graphical user interface is on our TODO list.
- Tool sensors are fully operational and tested. You can expect "how to" tutorial in few days on our blog.
- Warp is operational but needs to be further tested. You can expect "how to" tutorial in a week.
Re: TNG setup
Is it possible to give an basic example of the Tool table file ?
I can't find one in the application directory.
Re: TNG setup
Tooltable file should be in same foler as your .settings file. It has same name as setting file except with .tbl extension.
For example PlanetCNC64.tbl
Followinf two lines define tool 12 and 13. T12 has 3mm diameter, T13 has 6mm diameter, Z13 has tool offset Z 10mm.
Single space should be between each parameter.Code:T12 X0.000000 Y0.000000 Z0.000000 A0.000000 B0.000000 C0.000000 U0.000000 V0.000000 W0.000000 D3.000000 I0.000000 J0.000000 Q0;Endmill T13 X0.000000 Y0.000000 Z10.000000 A0.000000 B0.000000 C0.000000 U0.000000 V0.000000 W0.000000 D6.000000 I0.000000 J0.000000 Q0;Ballnose HSS
Re: TNG setup
Reference above posts. These issues still seem to be unresolved, certainly in the time stated? What is the current progress and when is the full non beta software likely to be issued for TNG.
Re: TNG setup
Main reason for beta version is user manual. Until it is finished TNG will stay in beta.
Majority of features are implemented, only couple of lathe related things are still not done properly.
We are also reorganizing settings to make them easier to set.
We are also grateful for all feedback. All issues that users report are immediately addressed.
