I have my machine doing everything properly again. Mostly thanks to posts on this forum. Before when turning on the power to the machine it used to reset itself to the offset home position off the sensors. Now it goes to the sensors then pauses at the offset, then proceeds to the origin position I set from the last job run.
I know I am missing something simple, like a check for remembering origin but cant seem to find where it is to uncheck it.
Thanks in advance for any info
