    Where should the auto home be when using the XXL LCD Smart Controller?

    for mine it levels in the center, but i have learned the hard way that it doesnt really work. Just stick to the way it is. I wonder if there is a way to change that.

    Home is home based on the end stop switches not the controller.
    I recently installed a LCD controller and it's no different than without it.
    More details please.

    The bed leveling starts in the center -- true, but HOME is as @Rigmarol said X=0, Y=0, Z=0 where the endstops are.

    Fun fact : Home is the only position the machine absolutely KNOWS. Because it has sensors (switches)
