Hello, I am having some problems during Qtdragon configuration. Can someone help me to configure my Tool Setter in QTdragon?I will change tools manually. Do I need macros or its just INI config?

Whats the best option. I just need to get a way to set Z offsets. 

Thanks

Do you want to use auto tool probe for tool Z length or probe for setting tool length in the tool table?
What kind of tool setter do you have? Do you have a probe for the spindle too?

With repetable tooling, I use TTS holders, I measure the tool height offline and enter the lengths into the tool library. It works well then. Tormach sell a small granite plate for this and I bought a height gauge locally.
