Jogback
Jog Back lets you jog the spindle or tool head out of the way to inspect the workpiece or cutter, then return it to where it was machining. It needs no setup.
Applies to
MASSO G3 and MASSO G3 Touch
Active when
A G-code file is loaded, or in Feed Hold
Return order
X → Y → A → B → Z
How it works
When you start jogging, MASSO records the position of each axis. Each press of Cycle Start then moves one jogged axis back to its recorded position, in the order below. Only axes you actually moved are returned.
X→Y→A→B→Z
EXAMPLE
You jogged X and Z. The first Cycle Start returns X, the second returns Z. Y, A and B weren't moved, so they're skipped.During Feed Hold
1
With the machine in Feed Hold, jog the axes out of the way.
2
Press Cycle Start once for each jogged axis to return it.
3
When every axis is back, press Cycle Start again to resume machining.
Cancelling Jog Back
The recorded positions are cleared when you:
- load a new G-code file, or
- press Rewind.
Any jogging after that starts a new Jog Back sequence.
