Not sure what you are asking, but if you are having trouble "Jogging" the machine you will need to included a "Jog on/off" button.

Grab the UserDRO's you have on your screen, then call on a Gcode command either adding to the current position using G90 or using incremental G91.

This is the idea, but you might need to check a number of things depending on your application to make sure the G0 call will be safe ;) and/or if you need to return the machine to a G90.

G91 Example:

Code: [Select]

amount_to_move =  GetUserDro(1000)
Code "G91 G0 Z" & amount_to_move
G90 Example:

Code: [Select]

amount_to_move = GetOEMDRO(802) + GetUserDro(1000)
Code "G90 G0 Z" & amount_to_move
Please first understand your machine and Gcode before running any code on your machine ;)
