Correct. > I think that if you wire them separately you might even be allowed to > jog off, Nope, you have to check the box, and re-enable the 2nd button before you can move it again.

But, puzzle me this, 4 of you folks all came up with a SCALE of 32512 for what is supposed to be a 2.5mm/turn screw. Wrong! When I finally got it to move .5000" both on the dial indicator and on the display, the correct SCALE was 25640! So either those screws are not 2.5mm/turn, or 4 people were wrong. I suspect the screw is more than 2.5mm/turn, 3 or a hair more maybe. But the same value works right for both X and Y. More later when I've had a chance to play more. I hate puzzles like that. Again, thanks for the hand holding & help about axis.x.pos/neg/lim-in. That was the correct chew. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
