Hello all,
I was wondering if there is a way to configure the machine/computer so that when I press F9 with the CNC software open, that the spindle turns on at 2000RPM instead of 800RPM.
I dont use Linux often, so if you could be as detailed as possible in the instructions if you know, that would be super!
Thanks!

You can change this setting in the [DISPLAY] section of the ini file of your config,
DEFAULT_SPINDLE_SPEED = 800
change it to
DEFAULT_SPINDLE_SPEED = 2000
linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-config.html#_display_section
If you don't have that line in the display section of your ini file add it.
If you need more details about how to edit your config files or where they are located, please ask.

In your home directory (the home dir's name is your user's name) there should be a directory called "linuxcnc", in that directory is one called "configs", within that directory is one named your config name, within that directory is a file called "yourconfig.ini". Open that file with a text editor, make the changes and save it.
The path would be something like this.
/home/username/linuxcnc/configs/yourconfig/yourconfig.ini
(Replacing "username" and "yourconfig" with what ever those are called on your machine.)
