Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Mach4 2803, ESS, and homing slaved motors
« on: February 26, 2016, 02:01:28 PM »
Quick update. I tried everything suggested short of rewiring my motors to match the XYZYslave pattern as I've been too busy with life and getting some jobs cut. No dice so far.
I got this from the ArtSoft guys, so it sounds like the 1234 stuff in Mach4's homing is meaningless and only the axis letter labels matter.
At this point I'm going to hold out for the "significant overhaul" of the plugin from Warp9 which is supposed to be out soon before putting any more time into it as it sounds like they're making some changes to homing in it.

Hello Shane, the axis labeling is for the motor on the labeled Axis. The smooth stepper takes control for homing form Mach regardless of being slaved.
