Does anyone have some gcode for moving the device through it's limits to show it off?

IE. Friend shows up and says "What's that do?" and you hit Script X and it goes all crazy for a minute then homes again.

I want to use it as much for printing as for getting attention during events.

Thanks!

Here ya go…..

Found this code on Youtube…….

In the attached file I have removed the first line of his code which was there to set the steps/mm to 40. That is incorrect for our machine and I bet his as well since he had the feedrate set at F12000.
I also reduced that because I could not bare to watch the MAX run like that, F12000 is WAY TOO fast.

Here is the modified gcode that I have been running on my MAX for over 20 minutes now. It just imitates the motion of a spiral and then repeats.

Enjoy….
