Title: homing positions
Post by: sledrat on March 17, 2009, 05:43:10 AM

good morning i realize this may be a simple question but
instead of changing the g28 location points on my mill is there an easy way to set up different (home)
locations for different size sheet stock
ie i have it set up to go to x108 y0 for 96x48 sheet goods but would like to (home) at different locations for different
sheet goods and or jig setups
thank you

Might be best to use the offsets, you have 254  you can use, G59 P1 to G59 P254

Be well worth watching the tutorial video called  "Homing, Limits and Offsets"

Videos can be found under "Support" menu at the top of this page.
