Why this matters

If LightBurn position display is wrong, inspect actual MPos/WPos/WCO and firmware docs before changing $10.

GRBL/firmware behavior can differ between forks such as FluidNC and grblHAL; verify the exact firmware when a setting or status field differs.

How to think about it

Define the result you actually need, then confirm the active machine profile, units and operating mode before changing parameters.

Practical workflow

  1. Define the result you actually need, then confirm the active machine profile, units and operating mode before changing parameters.
  2. Change one meaningful variable at a time and use Preview/Frame or offline analysis before running a real job.
  3. If the issue repeats, keep evidence: Console output, a G-code sample, the exact settings used and material context. Evidence makes troubleshooting reproducible.
