I think it might be a good thing to have the Z Axis zero (home) before the X&Y axis move when the Go To Zero button is pressed. It is possible to use the G28.1Z0 followed by G28.1X0Y0 but it would be more convenient if the Go To Zero behaved similarly so the Z tool doesn't try to rip through the work on the way home.

If you turn on SafeZ, the Z will move first. If you don't want to use SafeZ, you can just use VB for the GotoZ button to do what you want.

Sounds good. I believe that I *did* have Safe-Z turned on, however perhaps not understanding *what* Safe-Z is meant for, I had it set to not go LOWER than the table. I thought that I was using it to keep the cutter from carving up my nice cast iron but now I understand that it is to set where the Z Axis will go when the stop or Go To Zero buttons are pressed.

Thanks ever so much!

Works just as I envisioned!

I hear that. if XY moves before Z, then SNAP. There goes your drill bit. It would be a great feature for added protection, to make sure Z is lifted first before XY are allowed to move. Maybe you can change the code to move  manually.

Again, if you turn on Safe Z, Z does move first.

Yes, I can confirm that you *do* "HEAR" it!  <grin>

I buy my bits by the 10-pack!

Lucky me, I get to blame it on the A! I can't get Z to work so if I snap a bit, I'll blame it on the A.

Except, I won't be using drill bits for my machine, I'll be using a diamond and sapphire cutting stylus.
If I snap those, I will beat myself in the head.

I thought the 'home all'  was just a vb script, so you should be able to just edit that button script and reverse the order it homes.  Correct?

Just checked the default screen, and yes, if you hit 'edit button script' then select the ref all home button you will get the script that runs it.  Just look up which code is for which axis and alter the script.

Correct, but the original post was actually talking about GoTo Zero, not homing.

I'm thinking home all would move all axes at the same time. You'd probably be best to hand code moving Z first
