    Default Mach 3 zero return problem

    When I press the zero return button X axis and Y axis rapid back to home position. Z axis moves after x an y are at 0.0.
    How do I set up Z to retract to zero position first ?

    Thank you

    I don't think you can.
    The way to go about this in regards to a workaround is to set a 'safe Z' height.
    Then when you go to 0 it will move Z first to it's safe height, then move x,y, then move Z to 0.
    I have mine set at 30mm above my work 0.
