Just curious how others are setting program zero with TurboCNC.
I like to do it this way:
MDI mode
G91 (incremental)
G0X___Y__ Z___ (to jog close to program zero)
FOR EACH AXIS:
G0Z-.1
G0Z-.01
G0Z-.001(use the arrow up key to reissue move as necessary)
G90 (ABSOLUTE MODE)
G92X0Y0Z0 (set zero)
G0Z1.0
Exit MDI goto automatic and run program.
Every tool change I repeat this for the Z axis.
I tried the JOG mode, but I find I am more likely to make a mistake by having the pointer selecting the wrong axis when I make a move or set zero.
