Turret Rotating to fast and missing steps

remap subs need to go in the folder 'remap_subs'

the pyvcp panel comes from the 'custompanel.xml'

I don't quite remember how that worked with the tool number/ position but it all comes from the tool change command and corresponds to the tool number displayed in the Linuxcnc gui

net tool-number iocontrol.0.tool-prep-number => toolchanger.toolnumber
net tool-oldnumber iocontrol.0.tool-number => toolchanger.currenttoolnumber

edit:
Maybe Clive can fill you in on the details as I don't actually have a toolchanger nor a cnc lathe for that matter.

Just to be clear, you will need to add these :
 => toolchanger.enable => stepgen.2.enable

to your line:
 net estop-out => iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in

otherwise there won't be much happening with your toolchanger.

Maybe you could elaborate a bit. How did you get it to rotate? By toolchange command?

edit: This is what Clive wrote in his thread.

I notice that in the side panel there is a jog control according to the docs it is only used to set the reverse to lock the turret by adjusting and then putting the setting numbers into the comp. The jog buttons for/back don't move the turret to the next tool it is only for getting the numbers in the comp correct.

The motor rotates the same direction for forward jog and backward jog? If so that could mean that the DIR signal is not reaching the motor drive.

I have made changes in boxford hal 
but that shouldn't affect a new setup should it.??

If you create a new configuration then no it should not affect your motor setup.
