I recently installed the newest control software on a Celeron 1.70 GHz with 224 MB RAM. I am running Windows XP Professional version 2002 service pack 1. My PRT 36 has an emergency stop installed that worked fine on the old DOS setup, but now works in reverse. In other words, the emergency stop is activated when the button is puled out, and the PRT will run when the button is pushed in. Is there a setting that I cannot find that tells the software to look for a normally open switch in order to operate?
I am also concerned about the lag time when using the keyboard to manually control the positioning of the router. There is easily over a full second of delay between the time you push an arrow key and the time the machine reacts. The same lag exists when you take your finger off the key, the router continues to move for a second or two. I am afraid that students will frequently be crashing the router into the table, stock, limits etc. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
