Plans for TouchDRO Plus version.

[ycroosh]

all i can say is better you than me, i would not have the patience, or respond as nicely, or refrain from hunting them down with a bat. just remember if they cannot take a joke .........!

"Act as a grown up, and that will solve over 80% of your problems..." good advice from your wife but sometimes i just have to break things lol.

Well, chasing people with a bat and breaking things might come in handy for the other 20%
Seriously, though, I've learned to take a walk after getting "one of those emails" before responding...

Ok, I'll admit that this one has me intrigued. I might have to do a trial cereal bowl in a ramekin tomorrow.

Thanks for all your work, and tolerance, Yuriy!

Yuriy, I'm a bit confused about something related to TouchDRO Plus.

I'm running TouchDRO on both my lathe and my mill using older adapters I've purchased from you (iGaging for the mill and 4-axis glass scale for the lathe). I have a single tablet for both tools and just change app configurations when I switch from one tool to the other, which works very well.

I'm considering upgrading my mill and fitting it with one of your new 4XX adapters that's compatible with TouchDRO Plus but in reading through the activation process for Plus, it sounds like once Plus is activated for the new adapter, the app will no longer work with an old adapter and will return an error. If this is correct, I'd no longer be able to share a single tablet between my mill and my lathe unless I upgraded my lathe adapter to a 4XX version.

Is this correct, or am I mis-reading the documentation?

Thanks.

Hi,
You can't go back and forth between Plus and Basic in the same configuration. You should have a separate configuration for each adapter/machine. You can even have multiple configuration for each machine, but there is a hard limit of 65535 configurations per tablet. As long as you can stay under that limit somehow , you'll be fine.
Regards
Yuriy

Okay, thanks for the quick answer. I figured there had to be some provision for this.

I don't plan to have more than two machines with TouchDRO adapters, so I think I'm safe for a while.

I don't know, emmmm, that may be difficult.
