Ha! good to hear. I’ve been looking all over this damn thing.
So then my next question is when I try and set up homing nothing really happens. I enter all the info in MDI to allow homing. I go to jog. It says start homing and I say yes. no motors move. Then I get a “switch hit” message. Trying to figure out if that means I have a bad switch or not. I assume I can just meter the switch since I don’t have little indicator LEDs on my board? Any other thoughts?
Before you click on Home, make sure that you’re not against any of the limit switches. Pull all three axis at least 1/4" or more away from the limit switches before you turn the machine on.
It would be nice if the firmware could recover from this on its own. Something like, if a switch is already depressed, move the axis 5mm away from the switch then check again. If it still shows as depressed then throw an error.
Yah, I starting reading some previous posts about keeping off the switches at startup. I don’t have that issue but I was hoping it was because that’s a pretty simple fix.
