-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.\\
-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.\\
-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 by re-homing the machine.
-==== Setting Home ====
+**Cancelling the temporary home.**
-  * 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.
+When using this key combination the X and Y coordinate fields in the virtual pendent will no longer show the 0.00 mm coordinate.\\
-  * Press the SET HOME {{:en:x300:key_sethome.png?20|}} hot key.
+Instead you will see the coordinates count between the machine origin and the spindle position above the engraving table.\\
-  * Keypad Displays "Set home position here?"
+Returning to Machine Home. Press the SHIFT {{:en:x300:key_shift.png?20}}and then the SET HOME {{:en:x300:key_sethome.png?20}}hot keys.\\
-  * Press ENTER {{:en:x300:key_enter.png?20|}} to accept.
+Then push {{:en:x300:key_gohome.png?20}}to make the spindle return to the machine home.\\
-  * Keypad Display "Home 0 Set."
-=== Note: ===
+**Return to last home after machine reboot.**
-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.\\
+When using this key combination the spindle will return to the last used origin, even if this origin was not explicitly saved.\\
-We call this the temporary home because this position will be lost when the machines is switched off.
+Returning to last job origin. Press the SHIFT {{:en:x300:key_shift.png?20}}and then the SET HOME {{:en:x300:key_sethome.png?20}}hot keys.\\
