nested for X/ for Y loops
You got me thinking. So I just made an additional 'layer' to my projects' file, and labeled it bed-leveling. I then exported that G-code file to my SD card, and viola, it works! first time ever making anything move from scratch. Thanks so much for your assistance.

The simplest solution to my want of incorporating photo-optic end-stops, was to add a separate 24v supply for the 'PM-K45-P-C3' PNP sensor. Then simply connect its collector-output to one of the opto-isolated channels 5 thru 8. Testing of the X-axis was flawless and most accurate. No more mechanical switches. Now I just need to fabricate the mounting for all axes.
@droftarts Well, that's a lot of information for me to digest! Lol. Might I see an example of code where M669 has been implemented?

M669 T1 S1
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not very keen on how to implement what you're talking about.
@Valveman I'm expecting a new cutter today. Plan to post my results asap.
If some reason, I choose to cancel a Job that is running, cancel only takes affect after the current motion has completed. Is that normal, as I'm new to all of this? Is an update to DWC or the 6XD a solution?

I'm not much of a programmer. Electronics and music are my forte. Completed the rebuild of my bench-top cnc router, and need a simple X-Y program that I can run a fly-cutter up and down the bed, in order to level it out. I use LightBurn to draw my projects, then use it to send G-code to the DWC, which then controls my 6XD mainboard. Everything is working really well, but the removable wood base needs to be leveled with a cutter, before attempting any engraving.
@Valveman My thinking is that the tilted layout, is the result of the Fusion-generated code done by my son. I'm going to have him send me an older version, prior to it being tilted, and see what happens. By the way, how can I post the code for you all to examine?
@droftarts So, I just looked at a couple of the 'Jobs' that run at the tilted angle, but I don't see a line with 68 or 69. Am I too look somewhere other than the 'Job' itself?
@droftarts
That's me, Lord of the idiots.
My constant fear of screwing things up, makes me oblivious to what's right in front of me.
Rather embarrassing to be the dumbest newbie to the club.
But may I say in my own defense, that if you would show me a 40's-70's vacuum tube diagram, I would be happy to explain the whole circuit.Lol. Guess I was born about 30yrs too late.
Thanks, again.
