    Default Zeroing ATC tool without plate

    I have a PRS Alpha with ATC and a 5" orbital sanding head. I want to zero the sanding head to match the tools in the rack, but because of the size I can't use the normal CN72 method. How would I go about doing this?

    The quickest way to get an answer is almost always to contact the folks at ShopBot support. They will get you sorted out.

    In a nutshell, without hashing through all the macros used for SB ATC, my thoughts would be to assign a X/Y offset if Tool# (# being the sanding head) is called, which would then position the sanding head at a location that would allow it to be set. For example, instead of the head center, use an offset to the outer edge of the disk.
