Set start point in Sheetcam

Newbie question as I’m sure the answer is right in front of me.

How can I set the start point (0,0,0) to be literally where the torch starts the first pierce? It treats everything as 0,0,0 is the bottom left of a 4x8 sheet. So it will move however many inches over and up before starting the pierce.

I need to jog to a specific point on the sheet and have the machine start right there.

Thanks!!!!

Rob

Most CNC controllers have an option to zero an axis at any point. You jog to the point where you want to set the origin then zero the X and Y axes.
