Stall Homing Issues after upgrade
After backing up my configuration and upgrading to latest firmware, homing is throwing errors and my attempts at adjusting have been fruitless. Has the latest firmware made any homing adjustments where my old settings are modified. I noticed now there are popups with default values, seems way off fr...

Probe input indication
I am wondering if it is possible to indicate when the touch probe is activated. Before I run my Z probe macro, I like to test that it is working by hitting the touch block to the bit. Presently, I change to the indicator tab and scroll down to see the little +/- change state. This is not very handy ...

Re: Video on calibrating Axes
Doug, thanks for the great video. I am sure it will help a lot of people with their own home-brew machines or retrofits. Looking forward to your stall-homing video as I am still struggling with my Onefinity w/ dual Y axis motors. It would be great if you include a illustration of setting changes to ...

Re: BuildBotics ETA Time off (solved)
In the end I used the built in configuration program raspi-config to set my location/time zone. I tried playing around with Putty to enter the RPi, but in the end I used SSH (name)@(buildbotics I/P), nice to know WinBlow$ 10 supports SSH naively. Be careful in here, some settings may lock you out if...

BuildBotics ETA Time off
Hello BuildBotics team, I was running a job the other day and noticed the ETA seemed to be off by several hours. It was as if it is using the wrong time zone. It was in the morning Pacific time and I was seeing 2100 something. Do I need to SSH into the RPi and select my location? This is a minor pro...

3 point homimg
Doug, awhile back you posted your g-code for using a three point touch plate. After a bit of a struggle, I managed to get it working on my machine. I then converted to imperial units and again got it working with my Bill Griggs Makers Guide Triple Edge Finder. It would be nice if you could add line ...

Additional breakout terminals
Hello BuildBotics Team, thanks for offering such an excellent hobbyist CNC controller. It has greatly improved my machine and reduced all the clutter underneath. I had been using a HobbyCNC board/driver, SmoothStepper, and a WinBlo$ PC w/Mach3. All this has been replaced by the BuildBotic controller...
