G54 not persistent across power cycles
-
As the topic says, I'm having the issue that my work coordinate systems are not persistent across power cycles. If I set G54 to some value (let's say x100 y150 z30), I can work with this only as long as I do not turn the controller off. If I perform an emergency stop or a cut power, then after restarting and homing G54 now reads X0 Y0 Z0.
I'm running a duet 3 6mbhc with firmware version 3.3. I am running it in standalone configuration and I am in CNC mode.
I'm certain that work coordinate systems should be persistent over power cycles, I've read this in multiple forum posts and it is also the behavior I would expect and need to use the machine efficiently. But for me this is just not the case. Where do I start looking for a solution to this?

@crap you can use M500 to save the workplace coordinates to config-override.g, then they will be picked up at restart if you have a M501 command near the end of config.g.

@dc42 Thanks for pointing this out, M500 P10 would do it. I thought saving these offsets happened by default. I'll add this to my "set zeropoint" macros. For a moment I thought about adding it to an M911 command to save on shutdown and get the behavior I was expecting, but then i realized M911 will not execute on a soft reset or emergency stop, right?
