    Hello all,

    Fairly new to this whole CNC thing. I've got a MiniMIll and just recently i've started having problems when i go to lower the z axis. I get a error message that pops up. Every single time I drop it at any distance another one pops up. I'm assuming it is a settings problem. any help is apprecaited!

    Thanks,

    Tanner.

    If you have limits and have Homing enabled in the settings, you have to home first (it will not move till its homed)

    1) home the machine, then jog or
    2) Disable Homing Cycle and Hard Limits in Grbl Settings
