Thanks. That worked. Any idea how it got set? This is a brand new install and I am not at all new to EMC2.

I can find no reference to any number like > that anywhere in the config files. You have a work offset or a G92 offset. To clear the work offset, Machine / Zero coordinate system / G54 (or home and then Touch Off zero) and then be sure to read about "Touch Off" in the user manual since you will have to understand how to use work offsets now that you have homing. Looks like sections 2.2.1 and 2.3.4.1 are relevant although a little lean. To clear a G92 offset, program G92.1 in MDI. (In the upcoming EMC2.3 you will be able to clear G92 offsets in the Machine/Zero... menu also.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
