Offsetting bed origin
-
Hi,
I am trying to move the origin of the coordinate system to the corner of my bed.
This used to be straight forward using M206, but now I am struggling. M206 in the config gets overwritten by something, the documentation says it's deprecated.
G10 for this purpose is confusing and doesn't seem to be doing anything and now there is also M568 being thrown into the mix ...All I want to do is offset X by 12mm (M206 X-12). Can you advise what is now the correct way to do so?

Do you want this offset to be "permanent" or is it just on certain occasions?
Using tool offsets in G10 can work but it depends on activating the tool specified.
Using G10 to specify a workplace co-ordinate offset can work but you then need to use G54 to G59 as appropriate.
