3) Repeat has been fixed. Thisis an attemp only as I cannot repeat
the trouble here. Several changes were made however.
4) Logic screen has been rationalized with the program. This was a
holdover from Mach1, where the logic tab actually loaded its info
from the registry to initialize Mach1, Mach2 , however, initializes
in the main program, so the logic tab was being redundant by reading
from the XML, so it was not reflectig changes present in the program.

Many thanks for your efforts on Repeat. The Configure Logic Inhibit
Z tracks the DRO and both do Inhibit fine.
Repeat re-runs the code the requested number of times on the M30.
However the application of the value in Lower Z DRO is intermittent.
Sometimes Inhibit-Z does not go down on any of the repeats in a
cycle. I was using 0.5 as the value. When I tried 1.0 for Lower Z by
it DID work so I thought I'd found it (an integer rather than double
somewhere in the logic?) but no - when attempting to reproduce it
0.5 worked! Once it works it seems to keep working solidly.
As it now feels like an uninitialised variable or wild pointer I
closed Mach2, loaded Corel Draw and VB to use some RAM, re-loaded
Mach2 and again it failed to decrement Inhibit-Z. BUT no this is not
reproducible. Now it seems to work all the time - it's amazing
surely you have not got a self healing neural network in there!
Seriously, I will come back to it and try and find a reproducible
scenario and let you know.
Best wishes
