Yeah, I opened the lid and found the wormgear. There seems to be a hexagon-shaped component on the top of the worm gear, it looks like it's made of MS but I'm not sure. I guess it must be a metallic target for the plastic component on top of it which looks like a sensor. What do you think?

On a side note, is it possible to use another controller plc but keep the same drive modules at least for the spindle and the supply unit using GSK controller or some other plc instead of Mesa cards and Linuxcnc?

But replace 23 with 5007. Maybe not exactly what you need but something you can build on and make work for you.

Copied the mb25ioc32.so to the modules directory > same result as mentioned in my initial post.
A search to *pktuart* doesn't give any hit. So I don't know where to place these.

A compile of mb25ioc32.so delivers a mesa_modbus.o (and .c) in a tmp directory. I can find the source of this file at /usr/share/linuxcnc/ as mesa_modbus.o.tmpl.

Depending of the mode: Radius Mode or Diamiter Mode one off the DRO (R or D) is grey, meaning not active.
That way you see very quick with mode you did activate with your gcode.

the fix for the GO HOME button in the qtdragon_hd Offsets frame

the setting is in the following file:

/usr/share/qtvcp/screens/qtdragon_hd/qtdragon_hd_handler.py

(you need to edit it with sudo nano on a terminal)

on the line 821 (in my case)
there is a section called

"# offsets frame"

and about 17 lines below there is a setting that you have to change to get the button to go where you want, it's the following:

"ACTION.CALL_MDI_WAIT("G53 G0 Z0") " <--- there it is! that Z0 you have to change to the Z value you want.

after that, save the file, restart your linuxcnc and the button will go to that position.

i hope it helps someone
cheers have a nice day!
