    I currently run two machines, one rotary and one Linear, each with their own blackboxes. Is it possible to have two separate programs on my laptop so I don’t have to constantly change the steps per revolution on my Y axis or is there an easier way to do this.
    Thanks,
    John

    Steps per mm is stored in EEPROM on Grbl on the chip inside the BlackBox. Not on your computer
