    Hey guys,
    New computer today and I am migrating all my "stuff"
    All is going pretty good, but I can't get Sim tools to work 100%
    I migrated my license, all setup files etc. But when I check movement in the axis testing, I only get movement in Roll... nothing in pitch, heave etc...
    I can get all motors moving in the JRK utility just fine...
    My interface settings are "correct" at least the same as the old machine...
    I am lost here guys... Is it a comms port assignment thing in Sim tools?

    This tells me that the 'Default' profile, in the Axis Assignment section, probably needs changed.
    As that is the one used for output testing.
    Take a look in this section, i bet you will see a difference between the Default and the ACC profile.
    Take care,
