Probably dumb and in the manual or by search, but..."release" the bed for manual movement?

OK. so I know my way around printing and my machines, mostly, but I feel silly not knowing how to do this…

Example: On my KE


I ran the Input Shaping and when the process is done I cannot move the bed. I just turned the machine off and back on to release the bed. In this case I just wanted to get the sensor out of the Y axis and needed the bed fully forward to get access to it so I don’t break the wire.

Anyway, is there a simple way to do this without turning it off and back on? Thx.

pic attached of my setup just for fun.

look for an icon that looks like a stepper motor with an X thru it, This turns off all steppers and you can move things.

Kind of like this:

Thanks. I knew there had to be something I was missing. Found it too!

Perfect. Thanks. Right in front of my face, but had no idea what that was and without my specs on I really never noticed it looks like a stepper motor. Doh. lol
