I just upgrade my computer from my 2012 MAC Mini I have been using for the past five years. I upgraded to the mid 2017 iMac. Currently in OS X HS 10.13.6
I transferred my OS from time machine and everything mirrored nicely.
Well my problem is this. I'm able to still cut from start to finish, but when it gets to the last cut the cutter will stop for a sec finish and stay at the last cut point (wont return to it's home point) and sometimes (seems random) it will keep the head locked down on the form it's cutting, resulting in me having to restart the whole machine. I played around with the Throttle and nothing changed (currently set at stop every 2 paths for 15ms).
The other thing is, when I go to set the registration points, on the third point, I will press enter which in the past would send it back to the home point but now it just stays at the last reg mark and when I press enter to start the cut job, it goes back to the home point then starts.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I'm pretty much sold on just going to SCAL at this point, but for right now I have a couple jobs I have to finish with MTC before I jump into SCAL.

And the fact the head doesn't return home before cutting a PNC IS a big problem because it's going to cut in the wrong place and, as I recall, you can't just change the calibration numbers to compensate for this because then the head won't be anywhere near the reg marks as you're setting each one. I'm going to test this latest Mac MTC (i.e. the one that came out a few years ago) on my older Maxx in a few moments and let you know if I get the same thing happening.

Regarding cutting repeats, you can create a grid of repeats on the screen in SCAL or MTC. SCAL Pro offers one more option with regards to repeats whereby you can set up the repeats after you enter the cutting window.

I can always upgrade down the line to SCAL PRO if it seems it's worth it, but would like to get the base model as long as I can do the same thing I'm currently doing in MTC. From everything you wrote, it reads as if I will be able to continue what I'm doing.

Note that you'll need to adjust to a few differences in SCAL vs MTC, such as being able to adjust the offset of the reg marks from the project and assigning a layer to print only and not be sent to cut.. things like that. I have a user manual for the Maxx Air with SCAL which you can use as a guide, but I'll be here to help you, as well.
