Updated to 2.0.02 now both rotaries have same issues

[cfritzges (Chris)]

Just updated software to 2.0.02 and now rotary is having issues.
Thunder Nova laser. Ruida. Rotoboss roller rotary and chuck rotary are both doing the same thing.
Have restarted the PC, laser and reconnected to laser a couple times. I have run a flat job and that seems to be working for the simple square I cut out to see that it is still working correctly, direction and measurement wise.
The issue… In the “move” tab I have always been able to use the positive and negative icons (clockwise and counterclockwise arrows) to rotate the rotary by the distance I enter in the “distance” tab. Now here’s what repeatedly happens to both rotaries. When I first connect and try to move the rotary in the positive direction it will only rotate half way around the distance entered. When I click the negative direction it will rotate in that direction the correct distance and from then on the positive direction icon is non responsive and when I click the negative icon the rotary will randomly switch directions and run the full distance alternating directions randomly with each click of the icon. I understand it reaches a limit in each direction and I’m careful to not see that limit as an error.
I am very knowledgeable in setting the steps per rotation and have the correct measurements and circumferences for the different rotaries entered.

I have deleted the 2.0.02 software and reloaded 1.7.08 and the rotary seems to work correctly every time. I don’t mind staying with this version to keep using equipment but I would like to keep updating as you build a better program so any help would be appreciated to use the newest version.

Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris, does the same issue occur when using the latest public release candidate?

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the public release and turned on the laser and clicked the positive icon and it rotated one revolution as it was supposed to. Then i clicked the negative and it rotated back one revolution as it was supposed to and then… from there on out it did the same thing as described in previous comment… no response on the positive direction and random directions and rotation on the negative icon. Seems to work correctly once and then get messed up.

Is it intuitive to for me to do this; “downgrading” software version? I have been thinking about doing this as well.
