    Can not go to home after pressing RESET button? ????

    If I click the on screen RESET button in Mach3, then click it again so that it is not on anymore. Then when I click on the go to home button the machine will not start moving to the home 0,0,0 positions.

    It only does that if you hit the reset button.

    Is that normal, is that how it is meant to be?

    I can manually jog the machine back to 0,0 via the arrow keys, but clickling on the Go to Zero button does nothing. Pressing the RESET button does something to it???

    Are there any numbers in the Dro's when you try it, or do the Dro's all have zeros'

    The DRO's had numbers in them. I could jog around with the arrows on keyboard and the DRO values would change, Just "go to z" not working.
