Galvo frames single line only when using rotary

Installed and calibrated new 70mm lenses today for mainly rings. All went good till trying rotary. Rotary works correctly but when I go to frame anything all I get is a single line that is way off to the edge of work area. Can select another lease and frame and it all looks fine even with the 70mm installed.
Anyone have any ideas. Im sure there is something oi am missing but this setup all work for all my other lenses. tested on v1.5.06 and beta 1.6. on both Mac and PC.

Most likely you need to adjust the Output Center value in the Rotary Marking window (the last window your reach before starting a job, when working with a Galvo laser in Rotary Mode).

Output Center controls the location of output when working in Rotary Mode with a Galvo laser, and is meant to compensate for slight off-centeredness of the rotary in your physical workspace. But if it’s set to 0, it will lead to be output being centered way off to the edge of your workspace.

Try setting it to 35, so output is centered in the middle of your workspace. Then, if necessary, adjust it slightly to match up with the location of the rotary.

Perfect. I knew I was forgetting something.
Thanks for the help
