Subject: KMotion Driver Disappeared....
I plugged my spare KFlop into my laptop to do a little SW development, and Windows seems to have lost the driver for the board! I'm guessing this happened a few days ago when I had to run a utility that unloaded all FTDI drivers, to resolve a problem with another device. How can I re-install the driver without re-installing all the software?

Also, I now want to persist the fixture offsets by writing them out to my XML configuration file. Is GetOrigin() the correct method to use to read the current offsets? If so, how do I get the A axis offset? GetOrigin only returns X, Y and Z.

Regards,
Ray L.

OK, I got the driver re-installed, but I'm having problems with fixture offsets. How can I *read* the current fixture offsets for all axes? GetOrigin does what I need, but only for X, Y, and Z. I need to get the offsets for all axes, all fixture, and I can't find a way to do it. I even tried calculating them by reading both machine and interpreter positions, and doing the math, but no matter what I set OriginIndex to, I always get the positions for G54.
