+The “set home” instruction is used to identify the exact location of X=0, Y=0 on the material to be engraved. This is the (temporary) soft home location 0.\\
-This input allows you to increase the RPM of the spindle to the maximum of 20000 RPM.\\
+The file that is to be executed on the table will use this location as the software reference point home or origin (0,0); it will begin and return to this new origin.\\
-Press the SPINDLE RPM OVERRIDE {{:en:x300:key_rpmincrease.png?30|}} hot key to increase the Spindle RPM by 100 rpm increments.\\
+The location of the Set_Home position will be the new origin (0,0) until a new home is set or the current home is cleared.
-Hold the SPINDLE RPM OVERRIDE {{:en:x300:key_rpmincrease.png?30|}} hot key to increase the Spindle RPM in 1000 rpm increments.\\
-The Spindle RPM can also be increased while a file is being executed.\\
+==== Setting Home ====
-The current Spindle RPM will be displayed on the Keypad Control Panel as ####"RPM".\\
+  * Press the JOG ARROWS {{:en:x300:key_left.png?20|}} {{:en:x300:key_right.png?20|}} {{:en:x300:key_up.png?20|}} {{:en:x300:key_dn.png?20|}} keys to place the CENTER OF THE CUTTER over the rear left corner of the material.
+  * Press the SET HOME {{:en:x300:key_sethome.png?20|}} hot key.
+  * Keypad Displays "Set home position here?"
+  * Press ENTER {{:en:x300:key_enter.png?20|}} to accept.
+  * Keypad Display "Home 0 Set."
+=== Note: ===
+The software reference point must be the material Home point. The current spindle location is now set to (0,0). When the SET HOME hot key is pressed the current absolute X and Y coordinate locations are stored in the controller's memory.\\
+We call this the temporary home because this position will be lost when the machine is switched off.

-**Note:**
-When the system receives a new spindle speed command (automatically while a file is being executed or manually using the hot keys), the spindle speed will be set to that value.
