In the previous version (5.13) of the software/firmware, the axes letters were XYZU, which originated from the original grbl firmware. However, to simplify the implementation of further developments on grblHAL firmware and 32-bit controller boards, I decided to switch to the more conventional XYZA axes letters.
G-code generators can configure their axes for different axes letters, If you’ve got some g-code that you want to convert to the new axis letters use the Windows utility below to convert to the new format.
