Mach 2 Customers with Keypad


Mike Hanson
 

To all,

Some of you who use a keypad with their Mach 2, and who recently upgraded the keypad to V5.010, have noticed that the "Modeling" tool disappeared from the "Tools" screen.  We determined that the most expedient way to resolve this is with a CP5 firmware upgrade. P02-14 is now available on the AP web-site.  Alternately, USB/Serial Utilities should now report an available upgrade, and provide the button to install it.

If you already have P02-13 in your GTOCP5 and don't use a keypad with your Mach 2, this upgrade is unnecessary.  Also, If you have a GTOCP4 which already has P02-13, this upgrade is unnecessary.

Our apologies to those who noted with astonishment that this menu item disappeared.  Rest assured, no one's model database disappeared, only the menu item on the UI that allows a model to be created disappeared.

Regards,
Mike Hanson

All looks good. Upgraded automagically to P02-14 and Modeling is back under Tools.
Thanks all,
Todd
