I was using the TkEmc GUI, I don't know if the Axis GUI has the same symptoms.
Here's what I did: I set up X, Y and Z axes to align with part, using right mouse click over axis display. Run program to end, with M02 at end of program. (axes reset to original setting). Rerun program, and it has G92.3 in first block. This resets the coord system to the part's coords established previously. NOW, here's the rub : I need to reset the Z coordinate because I have removed and replaced the tool in the collet. When I do this, ALL the coords are reset! And, I haven't found a way to regain those settings. I am not sure this is due to an abort, or will occur after any M02 when you try to reset one axis. I should be able to change any coord. setting without disturbing the others. Does anyone know what is happening here? Does Axis do a better job of this?
