Have got a Microrouter Pro

Look at topic "VR Milling Ver 5 on a Network"
viewtopic.php?t=26

AllOffsest.mof files must be writable.

Are you looking at Program position or Machine Positions ?

When the machine is homed out, the Machine positions readout will be X0 Y0 Z0
whereas the Program positions will read something like X214.421 Y123.123 Z25.22 (for example) according to your workpiece offsets

Denford Admin's response is right. Even with administrative priviliges assisgned to the person logging on I have found several networks that have the whole folder lock to read only after the installation because it is located in Program Files. There are also a couple of other files in there that will be needed from time to time.

Recommend that a computer administrator log on and make the following folder, all files and subfolders full access to all users:

c:\program files\denford

Hope this helps
