fairly noob here, some schooling in CNC with MasterCAM9. I've now got a ProVer4030 with grbl. very interested in abandoning Winblows. So far, the only objection with Grblcontrol is that it seems to forget where it's at after waiting a while between runs. Seems I need to rehome after each program run or the new X0Y0Z0 ends up being wherever the machine stopped at.

Does linuxcnc do this too? or is it a function the the program not returning the machine to part x0y0z0?  light bulb that, I'll hafta check that out later.

No, that is definitely not something that should happen in any CNC controller.

No, this is not a problem with LinuxCNC. It's made to know where the machine is and put it back there before starting a new program.

You can also set it to go back home before each run of the app.
