    Default GOTO ZERO Speed

    I am new to UCCNC. I noticed that when I press goto zero my machines move quite fast to the zeros.
    Is there a way to slow it down?

    I do not believe that goto zero responds to the Feedrate I enter on the MDI. Does anyone know?
    Thank you

    Goto Zero calls the M204 macro, which uses rapid moves. If you change the G00's to G01's, it'll move at the feedrate speed.

    ..uh? lol
    So I input C01 into the MDI then my F20 and gotozero will feed at 20units/m ?

    Is that M204 macro and standard?

    No, you need to edit the M204.txt macro, replacing all of the G00's with G01's.

    Oh okay. Thank you.
    maybe that is also the same case as to why jogging usually goes full sleep regardless or my F input.
    Which leads me to ask: What is the F input controlling then if jogging and actually cutting feed are controlled by something else.. (I am not regretting changing over from Mach 3, just going through some growing pains I guess)

    Cutting speed is controlled by the F word, just like Mach3. And I believe that Goto Zero works the same as Mach3 as well.
    Jogging I'm not sure about, but there's a jogging speed % on the jog screen. Not sure if that's a percent of feedrate or rapids?

    This is for the default screen. If you are using my 2017 screen, the macro is different. It's listed in the manual.
