Yes I could, but I'd like to make it automatic since logging to the screen isn't copy/pastable. Is my idea of using the memory in the g92 block for this storage, starting at #5210 dead in the water? If it is DITW, keeping in mind I haven't used that gcode feature, for what reason? Thanks Andy. Take care & stay well.
