Notable bug fixes

  • Rotated Rect Profile was missing passes in Z plane.
  • Fixed scenario where flashing safety message remained on screen.
  • Added message log entry when tool table is scrolled.
  • Eliminated the SAFETY MSG ON button within TOOL TABLE. This is an interim solution to prevent Windows blue screen crashes that were identified.
  • Fixed a scenario that would shutdown our software while opening a DXF file on lathe.
  • Fixed scenario that would cause Z to rapid to unexpected position while running GCD program.
  • Fixed a couple of scenarios that would cause Touch-UserInterface to stop responding.
  • Fixed issue with Verify getting stuck at G85 boring cycle.
  • Fixed scenarios were editing a program feedrate would cause an unexpected event to run at 0 RPM.
  • Added service code 122 to Euro 2op.
  • Fixed scenario in Thread Repair that would cause Windows blue screen to occur.
  • Fixed issue with message log not displaying product id # correctly.
  • Fixed issue with Euro Lathes 185 & 186 and Spindle Fan Warning.
  • Updated file that was getting flagged by some Antivirus software.
  • Increased time to wait for servos to be ready. This should eliminate some intermittent fault 262 scenarios.
  • Fixed scenario where Z EHW limit would be ignored depending on option key installed.
  • Fixed EPA such that it is now context sensitive.
  • GO TO - A HOME would result with unexpected Z movement.
  • 1845 RLX - Spindle calibration (code 510) would not reach 2500 RPM.
  • RLX GCD programs are running at twice the diameter programmed.
  • RLX - Fixed issue were going into PROG and then RETURN would cause the software to crash.
  • RMX without spindle control will now not display IPT as an option.
  • RMX 2 axis circle pockets would not default to the correct tool path type chosen.

Instructions for updating RMX & RLX Pendants

  1. Disable your anti-virus software before downloading. (Some anti-virus software may silently omit necessary files, and cause your machine to have unexpected symptoms.)
  2. Be sure to delete any previous PT10-SETUP folder from your USB flash drive first.
  3. Download the RX_x.x.x.zip file to your computer.
  4. Open the newly downloaded zip file to reveal the PT10-Setup folder.
  5. Unzip/extract the folder (or drag and drop it) from the zip screen to your USB drive.
  6. Navigate to your USB flash drive, and open the PT10-SETUP folder.
  7. Double click on ValidateFiles.exe
    This will run a quick CRC check to ensure that the download is complete and not corrupt. You should get a confirmation that looks like this:

    In the event that any of them failed, please retry the steps, making sure to disable your antivirus and deleting any previous instance of PT10-SETUP folder from your USB before proceeding.
  8. Take your USB flash drive and plug it into your ProtoTRAK RMX / RLX control.
  9. Go to SETUP, SERV CODES and then enter code 316, and press ABS SET.
  10. Highlight the drive letter corresponding to your USB flash drive, and then press YES twice to initiate the software update.
