Better overview of the change of the feed data, laser reading

[Xillius178]

Have spent several hours with the program again, maybe a good idea:

The small message box to override the speed performance and rapid traverse our laser power.
Can you Move it permanently to the left side.

The Gcode rattles through the textbox so fast anyway, i can not track that.
In addition, most people have larger screens because it will not be a problem.

For this you may need a reset button to reset the parameters, or
a "right click" on the respective controller and he resets to the original value. so you can reset each controller individually.

An example, I have new wood that I would like to engrave.
Set the laser to S1000 (full power) now I can use the laser power regulator to set the needed on the wood during a test,
but when I'm with a mouse for a while somewhere else, the little window is gone again, but then maybe I wanted to vary the speed ....
So I have to click on it again and again.
if it were permanently integrated, that was much faster.

Just an idea from me ...

Greetings and nice weekend,

Future??

Hi Xillius178,
Can you guide me on how you set the workspace as seen in the images. I will like my y axis to run in -y space as my homing is set at top left corner of machine

[Xillius178]

Hello kyroncfel, it's not that hard.
You have to set the axes on the GRBL controller
As you like it
Stepper motor turn the cable over once or turn a spool (turn 2 wires)

I only changed the cables to the stepper motor.
Do you see a mirror image on engraving, then
change GRBL Config parameter 3 accordingly.

Then you need a program where you can determine the zero position.

I use Vectric Aspire 9 (with GRBL postprocessors)

But only because I also use it for my CNC milling machine.

There are certainly cheaper CAM programs with which this is also possible.

So it's not just the GRBL settings.

Hope I could help a little.

Regards, Xillius

Thank you for the reply and help. I will try and see if I can get in to work in lasergrbl and post back when I find a solution as my main intention is to do everything in one program.

Не совсем понял по изменению точки дома... Смена направления моторов что, приводит к изменению точки дом? Вот так просто? Т.е. программа просто определяет из УП точку дома? Направление моторов я менял и не раз, но по маске концевиков толком ничего не добился (концевики на дальней левой точке по Х и в дальней по У) и после хоминга ноль у меня почему-то в правой дальней точке. Если менять направление моторов, то и стрелки управления работают наоборот. В АртКАМ ставил нулевую точку в верхнем углу, тогда программа показывала движение в минус.

Попытка перевода на английский:
Did not quite understand by changing the point of the house ... Changing the direction of the motors that leads to a change in the point of the house? Is it that simple? So the program simply determines the point of the house from the control program? I changed the direction of the motors more than once, but on the mask of the endpoints I did not really get anything (the endpoints at the far left point in X and in the far Y) and after homing zero for me for some reason in the right far point. If you change the direction of the motors, then the control hands work the other way around.

I don't like the idea to have overrides permanent on the UI, but I understand the request. Maybe I can put an option on it. Instead I appreciate the idea of a "fast way" to reset it to the default, maybe with a double click or a right click action.
