Machine Absolute Zero Vs.
Workpiece Zero
To save a new workpiece coordinate:
When will I need to use this?
The machine’s absolute zero is the lowest
value the machine can go in the X & Y axis.
It’s usually at the lower leftmost point of
your router.
The workpiece zero (or G54) is an offset
to the workpiece home position. It’s
usually at the lower leftmost point of your
work piece. Most of the code executed
by the router will be based on your G54;
these coordinates will already be set-up in
your router.
1. Set your Operation page to Jog mode.
2. Jog your machine to your chosen location using the on-screen controls or MPG remote.
3. Go back to the Workpiece Coordinate screen.
4. Select an empty coordinate slot.
5. Copy the machine’s current location from the Coordinate Info panel into the empty coordinate slot:
• Manually by highlighting and typing on each axis. Press enter to save the new values. You can edit
one axis at a time.
• Automatically by pressing the [F1 Apply Mach Coord] function key. A pop up will appear each time to
confirm your choice.
Since cuts, by default, are referenced from the G54 location, the area close to your G54 can
be subject to overcutting. Setting workpiece coordinates farther from your G54 from time to
time can extend the life of your spoilboard.
