Newbie needs Help with coordinates

[Sancho (Troy G)]

Ive been pulling my hair to trying adjust the workspace coordinates. The laser position does not match Lightburn. I have read many posts and still can not get the laser to line up with the software.
I have tried numerous times G92 X0 Y0 and $10=0 command and zero at the front left corner. Once the laser is moved and rehomed, it shows x: -499 Y: -399. ( See screen shot).
Here is the list of codes:
$1=25
$2=0
$3=2
$4=0
$5=0
$6=0
$10=0
$11=0.010
$12=0.002
$13=0
$20=0
$21=1
$22=1
$23=3
$24=25.000
$25=500.000
$26=250
$27=1.000
$30=10000
$31=0
$32=1
$100=800.000
$101=800.000
$102=800.000
$110=2000.000
$111=2000.000
$112=600.000
$120=10.000
$121=10.000
$122=10.000
$130=500.000
$131=400.000
$132=100.000

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Please speak slowly because I am computer illiterate.
Thank you in advance.

Have a look at this, Common GRBL/GCode Setups - LightBurn Software Documentation

And this, Coordinates & Origin - LightBurn Software Documentation

This is also worth review,

Configuring a 3018 CNC (or other CNC-based laser) for use with LightBurn

The summary: Turn on Laser Mode to get rid of the travel lines You’re trying to move too fast, which is why you don’t get enough power You need to zero the machine 3018’s are pre-configured for use as CNC machines, not lasers, so their settings and speeds will likely need to be changed to give you acceptable results with LightBurn. To see the existing settings, you can type $$ into the console in LightBurn and press enter, or go to Edit > Machine Settings. Both are showing the same values, b…

Thank you,
That seemed to have worked. I just hope the coordinates keep after restarting the program.

They will stay this way until you change them. You can do that using the macros found in the Console window.

If you want to be able to flip from CNC work to Laser use and back, this is worth review.

Getting lines across when burning, and lettering looks like crap!

You need two macros - one for “Use Laser” and one for “Use CNC”. Their contents will be: Use Laser: $10=0 $30=1000 $32=1 G10 L2 P1 X-750 Y-750 Use CNC: $10=115 $30=1 $32=0 G10 L2 P1 X0 Y0 Prior to using the laser, click the ‘Use Laser’ macro button, and when you’re done and want to switch back to using the CNC, click the ‘Use CNC’ macro button. To define a macro, go to the console and right-click one of the buttons. Copy the code I wrote above and name the button accordingly. The ‘Use L…
