You mean like this:

Ouch lol, I wasn't even thinking about their site when I typed that, but if the shoe fits. I love my press though and Anatol in general, but dang there are a ton of unused buttons on the main control panel that could have been shortcuts to functions.

Ok alot of unused button for sure! Confusing when your trying to troublshoot a problem and your not familiar with the press controls. Which button is real which one is just there for looks lol.... I wasnt sure if the index problem was being caused by some hidden dwell setting but unfortunatly for me I think the problem seem to be more complicated.....

There is two buttons on my main control panel that don't have a function but they were there for future additions so when they were ready to add to the machines, a simple software upgrade could be done and the older machines could get those new functions without having to get a whole new membrane panel put in. That may have been Annie's reasoning behind those extra buttons or not, but that was RPM's reasoning for having them.

Makes sense. Our press was made in 2000 and has software version 1.12 maybe there is a upgrade will have to look into it.

Thought Id give a update to this problem we figured out the index problem by doing a hard reset. By pressing "SET-CLEAR-RESET" it reset the program and machine works great! Thanks to Manny and Randy at the OTS for providing the solution. Hopefully this fix will help someone else too.

If I owned an Anatol the guys at OTS would be my service provider, no doubt. They are the best when it comes to Anatol machines.

So wait, by just hitting those three buttons the machine restarted and realized there were optical sensors hooked up and operating properly?

musterdbom Yes, SET-CLEAR-RESET solved it, It reset the program back to normal. Out of the blue, This morning the memory battery died in the control panel and when I turned the machine on this morning it had the same problem of not indexing again. I replaced Battery Hit set-clear-reset all is normal for now....hopefully memory battery wont keep dying unless I may have another set of problems...
