    Hi forum,
    I am using Openbuilds CAM Gcode generator OpenBuilds CAM Gcode Creator - Public Beta
    and open builds control to run a Millright megaV cnc machine.

    I cant seem to find the setting where the default values for the Rapid Move Command G0 rate is set.
    The machine moves a little to fast for me in rapid mode and I would like to slow this down but cant find the right place to do so? would this be in the CAM settings or the GRBL settings of the Control software? or someplace else???

    For now i change it manually in the gcode editor but this is getting old ;)
    And when I use the go to zero it uses this speed also which I would like to slow down.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    I am sure its an easy setting to update .
    Thanks in advance

    Rapids (G0) is set as a Firmware config (Max Rate): See Grbl v1.1 Configuration
    Last sentence of the section:
    "NOTE: This max rate setting also sets the G0 seek rates."

    PS: The whole Grbl Wiki is good bed time reading. Understanding the firmware's expectations, configs, ins and outs is a great ease to the learning curve
