I just got done setting up my SO3 XXL last night (just my kind of friday night) and I set up the homing sensors today. They worked for a couple hours and now just won’t.
I checked to see if they’re installed as per the instructions, they are. I checked to see if they were plugged in correctly on the board, they are. The Z switch works, Z carriages bumps it and backs off. The X and Y switches get bumped and the carriages just stay engaged with the switch without backing off but without crashing through them.
I’ve set $21=1 and made “Shapeoko has homing = true” in settings but when I run $h I get a “GRBL Error: Setting Disabled” messages and the thing just sits there.
When I go to Jog, it asks to home but all it does is move -X a couple inches and stops with the same “setting disabled” message. I click the message to clear it but the “Homing Machine” screen remains and won’t go away until I turn off the machine.
I’ve been working this through and scanning the forums for a few hours but I’m starting to lose my mind, I’m beginning to think that green hexagon is mocking me.
Any help would be IMMENSELY appreciated, here’s my numbers:
Thanks for the help! I tried to install G-Code Sender and UGS but I was having all kinds of problems with it acknowledging my COMM. Tried them all and all I got was a lackluster hangup on COMM4.
I tried inputing the new $$ values on the MDI screen but when I check my numbers (ctrl-1 on Info menu). It just shows the old values. Is there another way to put them in?
Problem persists though, the X and Y switches are hit and the carriage just stalls at the point of contact with the switch. Starting to suspect there’s a bad switch in the works…
