Hi,

I'm using the same switch for homing and to limit travel.  Homing is working, however, when the machine is moving and I trigger the switch nothing happens.

I thought I would get the equivalent of an eStop or the same we get with a softlimits violation, but right now it just keeps on going.

Is there a flag I forgot to set someplace?

Thanks!!!

Sounds like you have forgotten to enable the limits or you have the wrong port or pin assigned.
