Estlcam machine controller

Hi,

Estlcam does not automatically move to clearance plane after edge or center finding because those functions only affect X and Y.
This is important because many people including me usually zero Z after X and Y. If previous Z was for a flat part and now you have a higher one the clearance plane would be too low and cause a crash into the workpiece.
Also I think a machine should not do any move without explicit command to do so.

You can move the axis up manually at any time - and Z may be anywhere before starting a CNC program - you don’t need to move to clearance plane manually.

Automatic edge finding with touch plate will stop 1mm above the thouch plate.
