Moving the laser with your hand is likely the reason why you’re having issues. Doing so breaks the controllers understanding of position.
Go ahead and use Current Position but use the jogging controls to move the laser. That should avoid the issues you’re seeing and also allow you to use Current Position.
Keep in mind also that moving the laser head by hand can cause damage to your laser. The motion in the stepper motors create a current that can backfeed into the rest of the components of the laser.
