Title: Homing gantry doesn't get back off enough
Post by: Boulli on January 30, 2023, 04:55:18 AM

Hi all,

I'm trying to home my gantry with two motors (one slave). It runs into the switches, it stops, and it does back-off a little on both sides. But it doesn't back off enough so the home switches stay engaged on both sides. Can you set the back-off distance?

Thanks! Roel

Mach 3 or 4 and what are you using for a motion controller?
