Change move position after homing axis
After homing X axis, I want the toolhead to move elsewhere besides 'middle', before homing Y. Just change toolhead and Y axis hits the Z screw. So I want to change to something like 150/350, then do the normal center before starting printing or after the home macros

You can change the safe_z_home (will also change where the Z is homed):

However i recommend you limit your Y's
position_max instead that way you remove the risk of collision completely, changing the homing routine is a poor bandaid.Configuring RatOS Macros | RatOS
RatOS comes with a bunch of flexible predefined macro's that can be customized via variables and macro hooks.
If you do that and use endstops, you'll have to move the Y endstop forward of course.
Thank you! I saw that, but ended up just switching to sensorless homing the Y and kinda fix the issue i had. However I probably with use position_max that way i dont accidently hit the Y when printing.
I do that myself actually 🙂 It's convenient when you need to limit Y 🙂
request , update the config for sensorless to be 125, 1.1 ; i think that a more middleground, i ended up at 100, 1.3 for settings on the Y
It wouldn't help anyone but you. These settings differ wildly from printer to printer. 1.1 on the minion is full power for example. The needed power and sensitivity on a 300 is very different from a 500, it changes with gantry weight, belt tension etc etc.
That sucks
Any mechanical change may require retuning sensorless homing
i would think that at least setting to 125 which is 1/2 way of sensitivity would be middle ground
That's just the nature of StallGuard detection
IDK what change from the first time i tried sensorless
but the 2nd time around it took me about 10 minutes and i was done
Im thinking of doing it for the X too
If you already have an endstop mounted, that would be a downgrade
Ah
Mechanical endstops are way more accurate, repeatable, faster and reliable, and they require zero tuning.
True , true
