MPOS vs WPOS

[bradt...@mail.com]

First, thanks for designing this and making it available. I was wondering if anyone else is running with an Arduino Uno and Grbl 1.1?

I am almost there, but my machine 'homes' to negative values, ie MPOS 0,0 is top right of the buildplate (furthest point from hime) and home MPOS is about -185,-80 (I built it a bit bigger than the template). I have endstops (microswitches) in the default positions. I did try switching home direction but that makes the motors go the wrong way :0

I have tried Chillipeppr and bCNC so far but cannot figure out how to move the imported board close to the home position (in terms of machine position). For some reason, the import is always at the top right of the build plate. By the time I zero the work position on the bottom left corner of the job, I don't have enough workspace left to finish it! When I try to run an autolevel it locks and says it would exceed limits.

Sorry if this is a noob question. 3 days tearing my hair out! Is there a way to get MPOS and WPOS to both home at 0,0?

Thanks

Hello!

You can find a version of GRBL with the correct settings here: https://github.com/CarlosGS/grblForCyclone/tree/grblForCyclone_CNCShield#grbl-for-cyclone-cnc-shield-version

(remember to wipe EEPROM memory each time before re-flashing)

Use that version if you want to have a setup like in the intro tutorial: https://github.com/CarlosGS/grblForCyclone/wiki

Regards,

Carlos
