Same tablet ,two machines

[Johno1958]

Hi all.
I use touch dro on my mill and it works great .Now I am building one for my lathe and would like
to use the same tablet for both if that's possible but I am unsure how I would go about this.
I know I can change in the settings between the two but calibration may be an issue .
Is there some way of downloading the app twice and naming them mill , lathe dro ?
or just buy another tablet .
Sorry I am a dummy when it comes to this.
Cheers
John

John,
You have multiple preference banks. Calibration data, points, tools, workspace, etc are stored in separate banks as well, so you can safely setup bank A for the mill, bank B for the lath and switch between them as much as you want.
