How do I handle the start-point — where do I put the wire before pressing Run?

asked by Aaron Park · 2026-02-04
By default the tool's serialiser emits `G92 X0 Y0 U0 V0` at the top — that tells the controller "wherever I am right now is zero". So jog the wire to the front-bottom-left corner of your foam block (or wherever you want zero to be) before pressing Run.

If you ticked "Machine has no homing switches" in Settings → Machine type, the G92 line is OMITTED and you have to use whatever zeroing your controller offers (, custom button, etc.) See <a href="https://cncfoam.com/qa.php">the Q&A page</a> for more.
