Sometimes I want to do a second pass just 1mm deeper for instance, since I may discover the it went not all through. Instead of changing the code, is there a way I can change the Zero Z on the controller by a precise number? Assuming I zeroed it in with the puck, the zero is on the work surface (I mostly do from the surface).
The only way I think it is possible is to move it out from the work surface (X,Y) or home it, and then, use the "Go To Position" to key in Z = -1 and then press Z -> Zero. Is there another more direct way? In my other small Piranha CNC I just can key in a value on the Z, it moves there, and then I can re-zero it (similar to what I thought with Go To Position).
Before RTFM, I did....

Before RTFM, I did.... That's close to what I do. I move away from the work surface, than manually bring Z to 0. I then lower to the new offset (like -1) then press Z -> Zero.

ok..thanks, it's not too bad. I would like to just type in a new number without moving anything...but anyway, that works.
