    New to the CNC World. I have mounted a crosshair laser to the machine to make establishing the X & Y Work Zeros easier. Once I have the cross hairs on the work x and y zero point (in this case the corner of the work) I run the following macro to reposition the router over the corner of the work.
    T1
    G17
    G21
    G90
    G0x-5.3Y5.1
    M2​

    Then I reset my x and y work zeros manually. My question is is there code that can be added at the end of this simple little macro to reset the x and y zero without doing it manually?
