M206 - Set Home Offsets
Description
Use M206
to apply a persistent offset to the native home position and coordinate space. This effectively shifts the coordinate space in the negative direction. See examples below.
- The current position is adjusted to align to the new home offset values.
- The home offset is persistent — added to the current position until changed.
- Some uses include fine adjustment of Z position (without moving endstops) and shifting the coordinate space to print on a different part of the bed.
Notes
- This command isn’t available on
DELTA
. (For delta useM665 H
.) - This GCode can be disabled with
NO_WORKSPACE_OFFSETS
to optimize movement. - Changing the home offsets will not invalidate bed leveling or other saved data.
- View the current offsets with
M503
. - If
EEPROM_SETTINGS
is enabled, the home offsets are saved withM500
, loaded withM501
, and reset withM502
. M428
sets home offsets so the current position aligns to the native home position.
