Title: How to Modify Go To Work Zero
Post by: backlashphoenix on October 13, 2017, 09:38:41 AM

Others have posted on this topic, but I can't find exactly the info I need to make this button do what I want it to do. When I click the Go To Work Zero button, I want my Z axis to do a G00 move to a safe Z height of 0.5", then G00 to X0 Y0, then G00 to Z0. I understand that I need to modify the Lua script that controls the function of this button, but don't know exactly how to change the script or what to change it to. Thanks.
