Start level in milling operation - g-code.

[bobhare]

Hi
When i come to set up the levels for a milling operation the "start level" is pre-set and greyed out.
When i check the g-code it initially goes to a position set by this start level. I could change the number in the g-code but i would have to change every instance; and i might miss one.
I don't have a lot of z travel on the machine and need it to be less, somewhere around the clearance level.
I have looked through the .gpp file and can't find what generates in there nor can i find a way of changing it in Solidcam.
I'm using LinuxCNC.
I attach a copy of the model and the third operation, 3DR_model ...T2(3) is of interest. The start level is greyed at 88mm and i would like it to be 73mm. (Doesn't seem like i can send the model as an attachment. )
I also attach the .gpp file and the code g-code generated.
Essentially i want to change the start height to one of my choice.
Help appreciated.
I'll try and find a way of sending the model.

Right click on "coordsys manager" near the top of the CAM tree, say "open", then edit your coord sys. Tool start level is in there.

Great. I've been thrashing around trying to find how to control it and your reply has sorted the problem.
Thanks
