Python does not randomly not execute code. If some bit of code is not executed then it is not being called.

You would get better exposure if you started your own thread in a more appropriate section like Advance Configuration. Most folks that come in this section are looking for Classicladder help or to answer Classicladder questions not Python.

Nitram, could you send your files pertinent to the tool changer?

Hi Chris,

Are you willing to share your Fadal LinuxCNC retrofit experience?
It will be much appreciated as others including myself are looking for details on how such retrofit can be done.
