This might be a ridiculous question and I’m blind but how do you put in offsets? I see offsets on the control tab but I can not figure out how to add them? I used to work with commercial machines and their controls had a entire page just for offsets. Don’t expect something like that with a hobby machine but figured there would be some way to add one at least. Any help would be appreciated and thank you in advance!
I played around with this yesterday. If you’re on the control window there is a little gear wheel at the end of each axis display along with the 0 and home icon. If you click the gear you can add the offset for each axis and then press Set. In my test case, I put in -25 (mm) on the X axis and then hit the home (house icon) and the X axis moved 25mm to the right.

So the cogwheel doesn’t change 0 it just adds an offset? I thought it was just to change 0 to whatever you put it as. I couldn’t try it because I didn’t want to change my dimensions on the machine.
I’ll have to give it a try when I get home from work.
Thanks for the response!
