3xxl Machine Perimeters

I just added the latest version of Carbide Motion (6). I had previous been able to extend the X axis in the settings to absolutely maximize the travel to 870mm. I can no longer do this in the new version. Is there a way to change these settings that I haven’t found yet or do I need to go back to an older version?

You should go back to the previous version. There are so many things either gratuitously different, or just broken in the 6XX series that it just isn’t worth it. For this particular problem, there is no UI to change the travel distances - you have to edit a config file.

The last of the 5XX series is here:

Thanks for the warning, looks like I’ll be staying on 5.X.X versions too then.

While it’s not supported, I believe this can be done by clicking on the version # then using “Open Data Directory”, then editing the .json file which the preferences are stored in.

Thank you very much for the response and the link! I am now back to being able to use the maximum space on my machine.
