How to set work coordinates in cncjs

LowRider CNC Advice

I have my LR2 all set up and working nicely. It’s connected to an RPi running CNCjs. How do I set up work coordinates using the CNCjs interface?

Everytime I click on the “set work coordinates” button, the GCODE console says the command “G10 L0” is unknown.

Please let me know if there’s a fix or workaround for this issue.

Thanks

Hello there! What do you mean by work coordinates? Is it zeroing you are thinking of? The docs explain it in a thourough way. G92 X0 Y0 Z0 set’s the point your tool is at as zero in all directions, and from there you have a work area - depending on how you set the zero in the CAM.

I am using the desktop version and use this pull down to change work coordinates

Yes it is zeroing I am talking about. I can do G92. But I was wondering if there’s any fix for do if from the CNCJS interface

Indeed there is! The Macros are awesome. You can give them names and make them do whatever a g/m-code can :smiley:
