    Where can I setup limits on axis, please!!!

    Hi all,

    Could anybody tell me how can I setup my limits in my DIY CNC?. I don't have hardware limits at the moment as I'm testing it. Can I setup "software limits" instead of hardware limits? and how?

    Another thing.... because the manual is not really clear... how can I setup the home positions? Lets say... I put all my axis in the position where I want to be home and what I have to do next? How can I reset ALL coordinates in the program to be that point 0,0,0? Because if I click on "machine coordinates" it is nothing to do with the normal coordinates.... I'm very confused as you can see. How can I setup "machine coordinates" or at least reset them because if I click "reset X or Y or Z" it just ignore it.

    Please a bit of help on this... thanks guys..

    I just tried it twice and it works fine. Try it again. If your computer is updating or something it may pause. Wait for it to resume.
