Tommy, thanks for taking the interest.

My aim was to simply improve my knowledge of some of the more exotic GCode.

As stated, my assumption on what G10 can do is incorrect.

My skill base has, however, improved because I can now use G10 for its intended use of setting up Offsets for multiple jobs.

OK then, feel free to poke around, you are always welcomed.
I was thinking you have some non standard stuff or end result, hence my jumping in.
Thank you.

What does one do if the machine cannot be physically moved to its Home position ?
For example, a large job mounted prior to machine start-up, or a vice.


It is possible to set up 'Immediate Homing' in the INI file:
www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-ho...ml#_immediate_homing

You could then use a probe to jog the machine to the origin of your work piece and issue MDI:
Code:
G10 L20 P0 X0 Y0 Z0


or. if you already know the offset between the machine position on startup and the work piece origin (example x:1 y:2 z:3):
Code:
G10 L2 P0 X1 Y2 Z3

Note though that without properly homing the machine (ie in reference to the physical limits of travel) you will also need to adjust the joint/axes limits.
