multi slot indexing- does not work at all.
only single slot index. (and that index window has to be quite a wide slot- so it can be seen by the sensor in under 5ms.)
i widened the index slot on my boxford 125 to about 20mm long- and it would index every time. - but would still break tools etc.
i have to cut a new index wheel now- so i can run mine with uccnc. - next job once the triac is finished.
