X/Y limits
Quote from simonsspams on May 23, 2018, 4:16 pmI have an inkscape page which is 200x150 and drew the circle as per the illustrations and sent it to the laser. The laser homed, then homed maybe 3 more times (I assume it's verifying calibration) then proceeded to go to the far side of the page to draw the circle, running past the location it should have been and then ground away at the end of the X-Axis for a while before completeing the circle.
I checked that there was no scaling going on but it all seems to be ok. Is there something I'm missing?
