Home position on Mill

[Bruce]

In X2 from the machine definition I have set to where the home position is in XY&Z, and in the control definition I have set the default home position to “Get from the Machine Definition”. When I create a Toolpath and look at the home position it is shown as “User defined” and is at some other coordinates, and I have no idea were X2 is getting these coordinates from.

I can select the “from machine” tab and the coordinates I set in the machine definition are input, but why aren’t these input as the default from the very start.

Just a shot in the dark since I have never done this, but did you re-load your machine def after you made the changes to control def? If not it would not take up the changes.

 

Just a thought

I would have thought every time you start up X2 it would reload all of the config & def files.
