Dean - is this one of those "Everyone knows that..." kinds of things? I don't remember seeing mention of this in the IP/M manual (might have missed it) but it strikes me that there are a number of things about the IP/M that aren't really explained properly. I think what it comes down to is that a bunch of useful things are delegated by Mach3 via the plugin to the external controller, but it's never really explained just what is handed over. Like fine details related to master-slave homing, for instance. I'm grateful to know that this is the case or I might have gone down the wrong route, although as it happens I am using separate inputs per axis anyway. I'm also wondering about things like touchplate tool height operation - I know that the IP/M has its own dedicated macro, but does that also mean that it doesn't support things like Gerry's 2010 screenset touchplate functions?
