So I have now managed to get GRBL up and running on my K40 but is there a way to set my bed size to what I can actually cut? My machine homes to top left which is X0 Y200 but my bed size is actually 320 x 215.
Within LW settings I can change the grid size to match my bed size but homing still remains at Y200 and not the Y215 I need it to be. I realise this could actually be a GRBL setting I need to change but thought I would ask here first.
Yes, it’s a grbl setting. Max travel.
@Jorge_Robles Thanks I’ll start looking into that then.
$130 (X) and $131 (Y) are the parameters you need to set your bed size…
@CescoAiel thank you I’ve never used grbl before so configuring it isn’t the easiest. So I’m guessing I would need $130=320 then $131=215.
Does this automatically confirm our do I need another code to verify the change?
@Andy_Shilling All $ settings are automaticaly saved in flash memory, you don’t need any additional confirmation.
But don’t forget to also adjust the workspace size in LW4.
@cprezzi I have already done that, that’s when I realised it was probably a grbl setting I needed to change.
Whilst you’re here could you tell me why I would be getting a disconnect problem? I was making a place mat last night and every so often the job would stop and show machine disconnect in the console. it would continue and it finished the job just quite a bit slower than it should. Could this be a baude rate issue?
