P0 still comes back "P out of range". Oh Well.

Looks like the docs are wrong, or don't match your version.
If you are in G54 , use P1 and all should be well (I just checked that, and it works)

Unfortunately the docs are correct but confusing to read... the correction is on the list, thanks for finding the confusion. And my mistake in linking 2.5 docs which support P0 for the current coordinate system. I guess I'm excited about 2.5 fixing to hit the streets and tend to wander over to those docs...

2.4.x docs are here:

Well the mack sim will be different for sure...

Ok. I tried P1 and got no error using Mach3 Sim. But The work peice was not turned 90 degz.

You might not see it. I only saw it in the EMC2 sim because the right-arrow started moving the Y axis on-screen
I should have remembered to try 45 degrees, then all arrow keys ought to move both axes…

Well the statement about jogging is correct in the 2.5 docs
