SOURCE Modifying GoTo Positions

If you are setting up the GoTo position for a tool setter, jog the tool to the correct position over the tool setter. 

Pull down Configure -> Control -> GoTo Positions tab

Position Setup Instructions

  • Use the Add or Remove buttons at the bottom to manage positions.

  • When adding a new position, choose Machine Coordinates or Part Coordinates at the top.

  • To change an existing position, select it and edit as needed.

  • Each position builds a movement list in the Data Box. Use Delete to remove a movement.

  • To add a custom G-code line, write it and click Add to include it in the Goto list.
    ⚠️ Do not use M Codes here.
    This helps move the tool safely before other operations.

Add Movement Instructions

  • Click Include for each axis you want to move.

  • Click Get Current Position to copy the current coordinates, or type the coordinates manually.

  • Click Add/Update to save the movement in the Data Section.

Example: Z-Axis Movement

  • Define the Z-axis movement to run first.

  • Click Add/Update to insert this movement into the Data Box.

  • Add more actions in the next rows.

  • Optionally, add a final Z Rapid Move to bring the tool close to the setter.

I modified the Tool Setter position. Coordinate lines in the Data box will be in Machine Coordinates. This will be used as the Tool Setter position and can be called using the P2 variable.
