Good morning, I have been struggling with the. z-axis setting, first I want to self-level, I finish marking the 3 areas and when I will start checking, I get the message that the z-axis setting was exceeded, it happens to me the same when I want to start the cut, the first area ends and the message appears to me again, has it happened to any of you? If so, how did you resolve it? Thanks in advance

Do you have the torch connected at its original height location for the arcdroid? There are a few more holes to move the torch up and down to get more range on the z probe,

You have your Z Clear height set too high…it’s just running out of travel
