    Good afternoon.
    I would like to position my tool at a specific spot, then tell the machine that is "Z=13mm" or "X=150mm", etc. Essentially, zero the axis, then move it...then change the axis value.

    Anyone wants to know why I do this, let me know and I'll explain it.

    Anyway, at one time I found a command to do that from the serial console, but I can't find it now. Anyone know what that procedure/command is?

    Thx, rink.

    That would be G10

    G-Codes

    Jog to a position you want as X150/Z13 then issue a G10 L20 X150 Z13

    Or G10 P0 .... where P0-6 = coordinate systems. If omitted, applies to current work coordinate system (usually fine)
