I would like to extend the original question: I want to zero my macine at max Z to (avoid tool crashing when a tool is left in the spindle) and then go down to the touch off plate. I was looking at the issue a while ago and didn't find how to solve it. The plan is: Go to X- home, Y- home, Z+ home. Lower Z until touch off reacts. Set tool offset to 30 mm (which is the touch off tool heigt). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
