    Question Resetting Tool Stop Button ?!?

    Hello, i just purchased a Shop Bot PRT Alpha and i downloaded the controller and now when i try to move my cutter around i get a message pop up stating i need to reset my "Tool Stop button". i have pushed it in and pulled it back out then i reset the pc and it still gives me the error. If anyone knows a easy fix that would be much appreciated

    First off, did you choose the correct settings file for your machine when installing the software and did you update the firmware afterwards. If so, the next thing to look at is Values/Input Output Switch Modes and check to see what the 'Switch #4 Stop Type' is set to. It should be NC for a PRT Alpha if you have the proper settings file running.

    Not sure when the change was, but older PRT tools used NO E-stops

    On mine I have to go into Values and then the input output switch settings and change the switch 4 type.
