Machine home disable for CNC router

I see that there is the option to move the machine to a starting point then click zero to set the home for individual axis. Same as on my CNC software.

However after creating g code in simplify 3D I have to manually edit out the home code so the machine does not seek home again upon running job.

I got it where it runs pretty nice now by reversing the z axis motor so the machine works from top to bottom.

Re: Machine home disable for CNC router

Could there be a check box somewhere in process settings to disable the auto home like there is for the temperature stabilize?

Re: Machine home disable for CNC router

This is really simple to do. Just click "edit process settings", select the Scripts tab, and remove the G28 line from your starting script. Click Save and then you never need to edit anything manually ever again :D
