The most popular I have seen are M6x1.25 threaded rod ($tr=1.25mm/rev) and ACME upgrades at $tr=2.117 mm/rev

I guess you have the M6x1.25 threaded rod.

Ok I upgraded to 440.17. I was trying to set homing, X is doing fine Y is doing fine, but now the z axis goes all the way down to home instead of up to top position. What could possibly cause this? I tried to set the z homing exactly like I did the x and y axis. Attached are the new parameters. Do you see any changes that need to be made?

$ztm=0

Z axis homes (zeros) at top of travel

Can you load gcode files from a thumb drive into chilipepper?

CP only supports Drag and Drop onto the Gcode widget.
So it may depend on you OS, as I have experienced inability to drag and drop from some non-native (e.g. networked resources) on my system (Linux).

As a work around, you may need to copy Gcode from Thumbdrive to a temp folder on you HDD, then drag in from there.
