I am trying home x and y in 1 cycle as shown on the internet, but cannot find access or location of the config.h file using Blackbox. Please help.
Not exactly sure what you mean by x and y in one cycle, but if you want to have a custom grbl config, then you need to compile it yourself. Here's how: Compiling Grbl · gnea/grbl Wiki Once you have your custom firmware compiled, you can use Control to upload by going into Wizards and Tools -> Firmware flashing tool. Be careful and follow the directions. Lots of people screw it up.
If its an advanced, custom homing sequence you are after, you'll have to compile yourself But if its one of the more standard, popular things, we provide a couple different precompiled options directly in the Wizard (For example, if you mean ONLY XY homing for a Laser - ie No Z axis - we have the 2axes option right there in the wizard; Building a plotter and need the Servo feature, it's in the wizard; Want to enable the compile time Door interlock options? It's in the wizard)
Grbl already homes Z first, then X and Y together. The word Optional there is just documentation wise. If its uncommented, its active
Mine does not do that. All axis are single. Runs X to the limit switch and then it will run Y. I'll poke around and look for something that I may be missing. Thx
No, all stock stuff. I am running 2 C-Beams X & Y. I started off with Acro 1510 and adjusted the limits. for a 1500 and a 1000mm beams. Set t 1300 and 850mm to be safe. Thx
I see only 2 axes, so you are running the 2 axis firmware not stock Grbl. In which case you have X and Y seperate. Custom recompile then if you want it together yes.
gotozero!? Wow, okay I have been using Home expecting X and Y not X then Y. Gotozero does exactly what I needed. Sound like it's working proper? Are you laughing out load yet!?
Yep, playing with it now. I Home and set all axis to zero and run a project (circle shape). Then, I gotozero and it works properly, but instead of reading 0 it reads the limits as seen below. This should read 0...
Not sure what you mean? But read the Grbl Wiki Homing sets Machine Coordinates Setzero sets Work. Coordinates Steps per mm sets travel distance calibration
