I try the pro version right now with a DIY cnc. I’m very new to this and before buying the version I try it .
This is my problem that I have
I set my homing point at the top left of the machine. But wen I draw something and I save it in gcode and try to make this draw with cncjs or other program the cnc start but wanna go outside of my working area and it the limite switch right away!
I have set all my work area in the cnc!
What I need to change in the software or directly in the GRBL code to tell which way to go wen I put a drawing to start
In CC homing is when the machine initializes. Other CNC machines may not home. The origin is the position we set for the project. The lower left corner is usual but any corner would work. If you machines does not home when powered on then just jog to the origin you set and set X Y and Z zero
@WillAdams asked about your post processor. For a Shapeoko/Nomad then use those. For third party machines use generic or GBRL. The generic and GBRL leaves out the commands for the BitSetter and other features of SHapeoko/Nomad machines. On some third party machines you may need to edit the gcode but likely not. As long as your machine can understand GBRL or generic gcode you should be ok. The Advanced Vcarve will not work without a BitSetter. In that case you can make separate gcode files for each Toolpath. There is a site that takes Advanced Vcarve and separates the gcode into separate gcode files. You will have to look on the forum for that site.
