Auto home xy axis on start up? #156

Closed TinkerBoi closed 1 year ago

TinkerBoi commented 2 years ago

I was wondering if there is anyway to auto home the machine on start up (when the serial connection has established)? I tried putting $H in start string but it didn't work.

No, auto homing during startup will not work. This is a security limitation from grbl firmware.

Imagine you are in a middle of the work and suddenly power lost and came. You just broke your tool, may damagged the machine also
