I am trying to resurface my spoil board and the ERROR comes up;

X AXIS POSITION-311.15mm IS LESS THAN MINIMUM SOFT LIMIT 0MM.

I get various errors like this on several projects

Dan anyone give me suggestions or information on what is happening and what I am doing wrong and how to correct this - Thanks!

You could try setting your origin point to the center in your toolpaths. Home machine and jog to x=16.063 and y=16.063. Set x and y to zero at this location. Probe z and you shouldn’t get the error.  
What it’s telling you is that you’re off by 3.11 mm or about 1/8”
