[Question] Lock Stepper Motor Position after Home Cycle #1124

Closed rawkstar320 closed 2 years ago

rawkstar320 commented 2 years ago

I have a belt driven laser running grbl 1.1 and noticed that when I run a home cycle, the stepper motors are not locking afterword's. This means we technically lose position after the home cycle. Is this action managed within grbl is it meant to be controlled via software (lasergrbl, lightburn)?

Thanks!

Wow, it's been too long since messing with grbl configs. Setting stepper idle lock to 255 should resolve.
