When framing with the “square” the laser does not return to origin
When framing with the 'circle" it returns to origin
Do you mean that it doesn’t return to the machine origin, or user origin?
I use User origin…
then manually place laser in centre of workpiece
Then I select centre for Job origin
using the circle frame the laser returns to centre
using the square frame the laser frames and stays where it started to frame
BUT I just changed Start from from User Origin…to Current position and the laser is returning to centre…??
Interesting,
I have basically the same problem with the laser not returning.
But you did a better job of explaining it than I did.
They’re supposed to behave the same, and technically only ‘Current Position’ mode is required to return to the job origin. Since your job origin is set to center, it’s returning there. Because the other two modes use absolute position moves on the laser, it doesn’t matter where the head is positioned when you trigger a frame in either of those modes.
I’ve made the change necessary to make both frame modes behave the same.
Again big Thanks Oz…
