After I initiate the machine the router moves to the very front of the waste board for a new bit to be entered then I have to click the continue button for the router to move over to the bit setter. I can’t do anything else until this has happened.
Question is there a way to stop this? When I am servicing my Shapeoko it is annoying to have to fit a bit so I can get to the jog position.
The easiest for those maintenance cases is to temporarily disable the bitsetter
- power on, connect, but don’t initialize yet.
- uncheck bitsetter checkbox in the Settings menu
- now Initialize (the machine will skip the BitSetter probing).
- do your maintenance/jogging
- where you are done, go back in the Settings and re-enable the BitSetter

Thank you, this has been doing my head in for some time - so easy when you know how!
