Problem loading screen data for tool touch and park location

**mrprecise** · 07-13-2017, 12:43 AM

I have the new version 1.2037 running good, and also the 2017 screen set. I have two profiles, and want the UCC sceen working as good as the 2017. The 2017 by Ger has places to fill in the blanks for Z zero setting, and park location data fields, but nothing in the UCCNC screen set.

What I cannot find is the way to load the tool touch off macro for the symbol box on the run page. Also, there are two park settings, but I cannot find any way to set the coordinates. Maybe some necessary files are missing.

This has to be simple.

Are you saying you want to use the 2017 macros with the default screen?
If so, you'll need to edit the macros so that they have all the settings in them, or add all of the setting fields to the default screen.

If that's not what you want, can you clarify, because I'm not sure that I understand?

The Park macros in the default screen have their setting in the macros. You need to enter the Park coordinates in the macros.

I looked at the profile macro's, and most of them were not to be written in. I did not see anything about the touch tool zero window on the run page. If the park macro's were in there, I missed them.
Is there a ucc macro for the touch, like your simple touch macro?

I would like to get the touch macro any way I can. Your macro's were straight forward.

Perhaps I just don't know how to find my way around the UCC screen.

M200 = Goto Park #1
M201 = Goto Park #2

There is no auto zero in the default screen.

Answering my own question; I did find an old file I used with Mach3 for setting tool zero, but had to edit out the question boxes. The boxes did not appear in the front of the USS screen, but behind. Since the prompts could not be seen the program waited for a response, and it seemed to stall. If you minimized the UCC screen the boxes showed up, and the program would step through. I got the Zero setting to work with USS #1.2037. I also got the parking macro's working.
I never was able to get the UCC native M31 macro to work properly, so I replaced it with my own as mentioned above.

There was code in the UCC m31 macro, but it made no sense to me. What does it do?

I was mistaken. It looks like M31 is an auto zero macro, called by this button on the default screen. I thought the button did something else, due to the incorrect error message in the macro.
