Is there a way to virtual home and then probe to test out macros ect
the reason is its bloody cold in my workshop unlike sitting in the front room with a laptop with my feet up


Thanks andrew

I don't believe so.
I bought a $5 breakout board and some pushbutton switches for testing with my UC300 at my desk.

I have some axis without switches. I can't remember if I have them active high or not but as soon as you click the home button it turns green and UCCNC thinks it's homed.

Not sure if thats what you are looking for though.

Thanks Chaps
have a cheapo breakout in the workshop
I think that will be the simple solution as i can then simulate the probe

Thanks andrew

The way you can do it is running the software in demo mode, then the holing and the probing just happens immediately when you call the functions.
Or in non-demo mode you can set the input pin to 0 and then again the homing and probing will happen without movement.
