Andy,

I'm still trying to figure out how, on my machine without a moveable Y axis
(in other words, since I have no real Y axis movement - the gantry just
moves along the X axis and the Z axis goes up or down), do I still need to
have a Y coordinate on the setp line?

Also based on your example (i've probably got this incorrect):

setp X1 V1
setp Y1 V1

Is the V number the Z offset?  How does that get passed to the Z axis?
