Tool length sensor usage with winPC-NC
Hi.
I'm using the full version of the WinPC-NC (verry verry bad software btw).
I don't realize hot to use the tool length sensor with this software..
Any help ?
I see the sensor works ok in the signal test area of the winPC-nc..
but can't seem to see a button to learn and execute the lovering of the Z axis so that the program will understan the correct lowering.
I'm asking this because I'm little bit fed up with using the paper for Z height adjustment.

@Bubbat:
I answered in the other thread as well.
The tool length sensor is connected to Pin 10 and not 15.
Pls. change this in your setup.
Additionally: in UCCNC you need a special Macro 31, maybe you need this in WinPCNc as well?
