The only way that can work with this mill is if Linux (or another OS) can give
the VM 100% exclusive access to a serial port. NO interruptions at all, not
even just a look-see to check the port status. Any communications interruptions
and it stops dead.

Try a Harbor Freight 2.5 gallon paint pressure tank. Unscrew the dip tube from
the bottom of the lid and everything off the top to put in a hose fitting and
vacuum gauge. Plug any leftover holes. :)

My appologies. Was editing the incorrect ini file. The clue was when I went
back to edit again and it appeared that AXYZ had reverted back to xyza.
And sure enough, once I fixed the 'correct' ini file I also get the rotary axis
preview.

Scott,
There are only a couple of differences.
I have
ARCDIVISION=64
GRIDS = 10mm 20mm 50mm 100mm 1in 2in 5in 10in
I've also added a panel but that's outside the display screen.
PYVCP = pyvcp-panel.xml
and I'm missing
CYCLE_TIME = 100
Here's mine.
[DISPLAY]
DISPLAY = axis
POSITION_OFFSET = REL
Thanks Scott. Yes. The code was changed to
#<_f> = 80
from
#<_feed> = 20
I tried _feed1 which also worked.

John,
The file at the bottom of page 2 works in 2.9.0.

John,
I have it almost working. The tool still tilts, but it will display the ring,
and you can see what is happening.
From my INI
[DISPLAY]
DISPLAY = axis
POSITION_OFFSET = RELATIVE
POSITION_FEEDBACK = ACTUAL
MAX_FEED_OVERRIDE = 2.00
MAX_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 1.50
MIN_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 0.

I changed it to _feed1 and then the program ran. Info output at 10, 20, 30..
Looks like it carves the numbers first. Rotary axis does appear to move 10

I was asking how to cut ring gears because, As we can see in that link,
comercial internal gears cost $60 to $120 each and I'd need more then a
dozen of them. I was looking at a few different gear reduction systems
and one of the designs needed ring gears. Belt reducers and cycloidal
