Hi to ALL.
I've set up the QtDragon HD with z compensation; now I try to work with touch plate and tool sensor but I'm not clear as how they are working.
First Tool-Sensor: what should happen if my Code says T2 M6; It should go to tool-change position, I change the tool, hit OK, then ... ?
Can anyone help on that?
Where and How is the implementation done ?

One thing I don't find;
Using QtDragon_HD;
Pressing "Go Home" Button the Z-Axis goes to "Z0", then to Xnn Ynn;
Like This: G0 G53 Z0; G0 G53 X0 Y520;
Where do I change the Z0 Value;
Best Regards

The macro button codes can be changed in the ini file.

It doesn't work for me;
The Z-Axis allways goes to 0 but I need it at 110;
Here the .ini
I'm using the QtDragon_HD if it matters.

Sorry, I didn't read it correctly, I thought it was about macro buttons.I don't have much experience with the tool sensor and touch plate, so I won't be much help, but when it comes to the tool sensor, I think you're missing the [TOOLSENSOR] section in the ini file.

Sorry, you AGAIN didn't read it correctly !
my HomeAll/Reference Switches are at X0 Y520 Z110;
There are two Buttons in the Offset section in the QtDragon_HD UI ( see picture 2 )
Button 1.) Go Home <This Button acts like MDI: G0 G53 Z0; then: G0 G53 X0 Y520 >
Button 2.) Goto G30. <This Button acts like MDI: G0 G53 X0 Y0 Z0 >
I need:
Button 1.) Go Home < G0 G53 Z110; then: G0 G53 X0 Y520 >
Button 2.) Goto G30. < G0 G53 Z110; then: G0 G53 X0 Y0; then: G0 G53 Z0 >
Where do I find the macros, what are there names or how else do I get there;
Thanks if anyone can help;
Best Regards

Home button final position is defined on the setting page.
The sequence is called from the handlerfile:
G90
G53 G0 Z0
G53 G0 X Y (from the setting page)
The g30 page is just a call of G30 - which it's position can be defined with params/g30.1
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.9/html/gcode/g-code.html#gcode:g30-g30.1
