GRBL Alarm Code 6 - Homing fail

I just connected a new computer, same Shapeoko Pro. When trying to initialize machine, the router goes to the front left instead of right rear. Then I get a GRBL Alarm code. Tried turning it off, unplugging it etc…

With the power off, slowly, gently move the machine to the center of each axis, then power up and connect to the machine and go to Settings | Debug — are any homing switches stuck on?

Did you send the configuration for the new computer?

Did you originally assemble this particular machine?

Seems like either you setup the machine using the incorrect selection within the setup wizard, or the motor direction mask setting had been previously manually set to make the machine work properly(possibly due to a wiring harness issue) & now has been reset to default.

Um, yeah, no. I’ve used the machine 100’s of times with a laptop.

Carbide 3d support Josh Stupnik - You are the best! Deleted 2 files, restarted the process and whalah! Working great.

Thank you!
