Park and Home from any screen

Post by 713cnc »

Anytime I want to Park and Home, I forget to press escape a bunch of times to get back to the main screen. Is there anyway we can allow park and home from any screen?

Why are you wanting to park or home when not at the main screen (where those two operations are normally done)? Just curious as to what screen you are staying on instead of returning to the main screen.

Say I want to change something in the wizard. I go to utility menu, maybe create a report, then remember I should park before turning off the machine, and press escape and go back. But usually after pressing park, then remembering to escape and the park.

Or: when setting up scales, you have to home after turning them on and off ( I did this quite a few times when troubleshooting with non closed loop motors). I would go back 4 menus to home, then 4 menus back.

I can't think of a menu when it would hurt to be able to go home, but then again, I've spent all my time thus far setting up the machine...
