Iv just updated to the latest version of Carbide motion and my Shapeoko 5 pro no longer knows where the bit setter is. When bit setter is enabled and the machine is initialized it jogs to the back right corner and attempts to measure the tool there.
Also being able to input the bit setter location manually was vital when using tools with a larger diameter than the bit setter, where the tips of the cutter were lower on the peripheral than the center (face mills) will this feature be returning ?
Re-run the Setup Wizard:

We don’t support the usage of tools which don’t have geometry near/at the center.
Thank you for the feedback Will.
Whats the issue with using a tool like the Amana RC-2265 on the Shapeoko 5 pro ? (Amana Tool RC-2265 Heavy Duty CNC Spoilboard Insert Carbide 3 Wing Plunging, Surfacing, Planing, Flycutting & Slab Leveler 1-1/2 D x 3/4 CH x 1/4 SHK Router Bit, Includes RCK-453 (3))
The BitSetter would need to be disabled to allow that to be used.
