using windows 7, TinyG. It stays plugged in all the time. Have unplugged, and re-plugged back in to no avail. Went to devivice manager and only shows com1. I’m not computer literate, so can I and how do I switch tinyg over to com 1

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?

Ok. When I say tinyg I guess I mean tgfx. as far as when I talk about moving machine, it’s not thru any g code, simply using arrow keys on key board. I will start using chilipepper and see if anything works.

ok got firmware updated. Thanks. As stated above, this machine was bought while previous owner was still calibrating machine. He had to move (military) so he sold machine. I am completely new to cnc milling. I have looked at lots of videos of how to wire the tinyg, but not many on how to configure. The table size is 1220mm in Y and 570mm in X. I entered these paramters in $ytm=1220.0 and $ytn=0, $xtm=570.0 and $xtn=0.0. When I go back to move machine, especially in Y direction, it shows Y is moving out of working envelop about 2/3 down. Does this have anything to do with absolute coordinates? My $tpr may be off some also, but is very close. I have read wiki several times but still don”t quite understand setting absolute coordinates. Need step by step instructions. Machine was homing when I first got it, but not now. Dosen’t do anything when selecting home axis button. I’m sure it’s something I’ve done but don”t know what. I hope I’m explaining this so you understand what I’m saying. Does the zero backoff only apply to homing? Is there a tech support phone # for help? LOST IN NC!!!

Never mind haha, I found why. But how do I get the preview screen to fit size of my table?
