I hope I am not wearing out my welcome, but I have a new problem. I can’t figure out how to abort from a run. I had started a run only to realize (too late) that I had the wrong bit in. So, I e-stopped it (and pushed every CP stop, clear, reset button I could find), put on the right bit, set up a new piece of PCB and tried to zero. Neither machine zero nore work area zero buttons were effective. It seems that I must clear the old job first, but can’t figure out how. Reloading a new job has not solved that problem (or at least not sufficiently to let me zero). I will post a screen shot shortly.
Thanks, Rick
Pushing the set to zero buttons here doesn’t change the x, y or z values, and I can’t figure out why or how to make it work.

If you e-stopped then you have to reset your TinyG. My gut tells me you never did and thus nothing would be responsive in ChiliPeppr, because it needs to communicate with a functioning TinyG.
Maybe I wired up my e-stop button wrong – I attached it to the reset pins on the TinyG. Is that the correct way? I will go push e-stop again in case I did not before. If I did (or do) push e-stop, and therefore have to reset my TinyG, how would I reset it? Thanks for your patience.
I did release the e-stop after having pushed it, if that makes a difference.
I just pushed e-stop again, then released it. Still can’t get machine zeros or work zeros. I am perplexed.
You have to most likely disconnect and reconnect from serial port json server now. When you e-stop you fully kill stuff. Like fully. If that fails kill spjs and restart it even.
Got it. Thanks. I will report back (but probably not until tomorrow).
So, my wiring (of e-stop to reset pins on TinyG) is correct?
